A taste of AFLW action is right around the corner, with two weeks of pre-season hitouts kicking off in early August.
A weekend of match simulation training sessions will start on August 11 and coincide with round 22 of the AFL competition, with each fixture featuring the same opponents as in the men's comp. Each club will manage and communicate further details about public access to the match sim sessions.
The second week of pre-season games sees teams go head-to-head in practice matches, with the GIANTS to host Richmond at Blacktown International Sports Park.
All practice matches from August 18-20 will be streamed via club media channels, and will be free to attend.
