The 2022 NAB AFL Women’s Grand Final will be played this Saturday between the Adelaide Crows and Melbourne Demons at Adelaide Oval.
The two teams finished the regular home and away season in first and second, with nine wins and one loss, with percentage just separating the two.
They met in round four of the regular season, with Adelaide taking the points courtesy of a 14-point victory.
Adelaide have played in three grand finals and won two NAB AFLW Premierships.
They hosted the 2021 AFLW Grand Final, but had their hopes of celebrating a premiership at home spoiled by the Brisbane Lions.
2022 will be the Melbourne Demons first-ever appearance in the play-off, but have been flagged as premiership favourites from the get-go.
