The scheduled Round Six match between Collingwood and the West Coast Eagles and the scheduled Round 10 match between the Western Bulldogs and Fremantle will be played on Tuesday, February 1.

AFL General Manager Competition Management Laura Kane said while the ongoing pandemic continues to impact the 2022 NAB AFL Women’s Competition, the AFL remains committed to delivering a full season in a safe manner anchored in the advice of respective governments and public health officials.

“We remain committed to completing the season and awarding a Premier and the updates to the fixture aim to provide the competition with greater flexibility as we progress the season,” Ms. Kane said.

“The decision to schedule additional matches to the fixture for Fremantle and the West Coast Eagles was made in close consultation and with strong support from each Club following updates to border restrictions relating to Western Australia.

“We remain cognisant of the outside-football commitments of many players and staff from WA who are currently on the road in Victoria, and we thank them for their commitment and understanding.

“The league will continue to work closely with each club and the AFLPA, and will remain led by the advice of respective state governments and relevant health authorities as we work through arrangements for the coming rounds. I want to thank the AFLPA for working with us to provide the flexibility required to progress the season.

“Collingwood and the Western Bulldogs will participate in the additional games with the Magpies to have a five-day break between their Round Four game and their match-up against the Eagles next Tuesday night. Meanwhile, the Bulldogs are ready to return for Round Four after two weeks of no matches due to AFL Health and Safety Protocols.

“For the time being, the fixture remains a week-to-week proposition, and as such, we want to thank every AFLW Club, players and the AFLPA, umpires, venues, governments, ticketing agents and all supporters for their understanding.”

Ticketing Update
  • For supporters who have purchased tickets to matches in Round Four, those tickets remain valid. The Ticketing Agent will be in contact should any ticket purchaser wish to receive a refund.
  • Details of ticketing for the additional matches - Collingwood vs. West Coast Eagles and the Western Bulldogs vs. Fremantle – will be released separately.

Wasn't last week pride round? How many pride rounds do we need?
I'd prefer to see my team wearing black and white stripes only, not 27 different colours.

So with Carlton finally playing Brisbane in QLD last night, a few more overdue fixtures are about to be ticked off: Fremantle take on Collingwood in Victoria for the first time tomorrow (at Vic Park where the Pies have won their last 8), the Bulldogs make their maiden voyage to NSW on Friday, and the 3rd Carl-NM meeting won't be in Tassie.

48hrs out from the Saints-Eagles game and you can still get tickets, so that's maybe an encouraging sign.

Growing concerns about the Covid issues for West Coast

Looks like we may not be able to field a team for Friday

Postponed fixture coming up.
Not sure the AFL will be able to considering we're already playing two games a week to get the girls back home as planned. We might have to field a team with some Vic top up players from the lower leagues.
 
Haneen Zreika should be deregistered for her stance on pride round.
If players lose their jobs for not getting the jab, so should she.
Homophobic woman I bet wouldn't be welcome in most AFLW changerooms now.
She is blatantly in breach of contract (start with section 3, "Player's Obligations", of the Standard Playing Agreement), no doubt about it.

Its against Islam. Deregistered is a bit harsh, everyone is entitled to have their own beliefs.

Agreed. As a player you wear whatever jumper the club gives you regardless of whether you like the colours, agree with the sponsorships/affiliations or not.
No player is more important than the team, sack her and promote the next best player who is willing to wear the jumper.
