For the AFL Women's season which took place from January to April 2022, see 2022 AFL Women's season.
AFL Women's season seven was the seventh season of the AFL Women's competition, the highest-level senior women'sAustralian rules football competition in Australia. The season began on 25 August and ran until 27 November, and was the second AFL Women's season to take place in the 2022 calendar year.[1] The season was the first to feature 18 clubs, an increase from 14 the previous season, and the first to have an August start date.[2]
In August 2021, Essendon, Hawthorn, Port Adelaide and Sydney – the four Australian Football League (AFL) clubs yet to receive an AFLW licence at the time – were granted licences to join the AFL Women's competition in what was then slated to be a 2022–23 season, meaning all 18 clubs would have an AFLW team for the first time.[5] In May 2022, a one-year bridging collective bargaining agreement (CBA) was announced which would see the competition's seventh season begin during the AFL pre-finals bye in the last weekend of August and conclude with the grand final in the last weekend of November.[4] The CBA also saw player payments rise by 94% across all four payment tiers, with eight players per club occupying the top two tiers and the minimum (tier 4) wage increasing from $20,239 to $39,184.[4] Later in May, AFL head of women's football Nicole Livingstone revealed that the season would be named AFLW season seven, in a deviation from previous seasons.[6]
The season seven fixture was announced in early July.[7] Match times on Saturdays in September (except 24 September, the date of the AFL Grand Final) were floating to maximise doubleheader opportunities, and the final round was released as a floating fixture to be determined later in the season, like in the AFL;[7] the round 10 fixture was eventually announced in early October.[8] In August, after the round 1 match between Essendon and Hawthorn was moved from ETU Stadium to Marvel Stadium following a sell-out,[9] Livingstone said that the AFL would consider moving more matches to larger venues depending on ticket sales;[10] the round 2 match between Melbourne and North Melbourne was rescheduled and moved to the Melbourne Cricket Ground to act as a curtain raiser to the AFL qualifying final between Melbourne and Sydney.[11]
Season seven's Indigenous Round was launched in early September, and was played across rounds 3 and 4.[12] The round is held to acknowledge the significant contribution of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women and girls to Australian football and the broader community.[12] Aunty Pam Pederson, the youngest daughter of Sir Douglas Nicholls, was announced as the round's honouree, and all 18 teams wore specially-designed guernseys across the two weeks.[12] Melbourne rebranded itself as the Narrm Football Club for Indigenous Round, as it did during the corresponding round of the AFL season; Narrm is the traditional name for Melbourne in the Woiwurrung language.[13] Pride Round, which was played in round 8, was launched in early October.[14] The round is held "to promote and support diversity and inclusion of LGBTQI+ communities and families, and acknowledges the AFL's journey to being a more inclusive sport"; this season's iteration also celebrated allies of LGBTQI+ people within the sport.[14] Like with Indigenous Round, all 18 teams wore specially-designed guernseys for the occasion.[15]
The season began on 25 August with a match between Carlton and Collingwood[16] and concluded on 27 November with the AFL Women's season seven Grand Final, contested by Brisbane and Melbourne.[17] The season featured ten home-and-away rounds, the same as the previous season, and a four-week finals series, up from three weeks the previous season; the finals were contested by the top eight teams, up from six the previous season,[18] and the finals system was the same as the AFL's.[19] Melbourne won its first AFL Women's premiership, defeating Brisbane by four points in the grand final, played at Brighton Homes Arena.[17] All matches throughout season seven were broadcast live on the Seven Network and Fox Footy, and could be streamed via Kayo, womens.afl and the official AFL and AFLW apps.[20]
The Adelaide v Melbourne match was originally scheduled to be played at Norwood Oval, however after a heavy workload of matches at the time and heavy rainfall, the AFL moved the match to ACH Group Stadium due to the condition of Norwood Oval's playing surface.[44]
The crowd of 8,264 at the Sydney v St Kilda match is the largest attendance for an AFLW match in New South Wales.[45]
The Essendon v Hawthorn match was originally scheduled to be played at ETU Stadium, however after tickets for the match sold out in less than two hours and following pushes from coaches and fans, the AFL moved the match to Marvel Stadium to allow more fans to attend.[9]
Umpire Emma Stark made her AFLW umpiring debut in the Essendon v Hawthorn match at the age of 16, becoming the youngest field umpire to officiate at AFL or AFLW level.[46]
The Melbourne v North Melbourne match was originally scheduled to be played at ETU Stadium, but was moved to the Melbourne Cricket Ground to act as a curtain raiser to the AFL qualifying final between Melbourne and Sydney.[11] Tickets needed to be purchased for the AFL final to access the AFLW match.[47]
Greater Western Sydney's losing margin of 47 points against Brisbane was its equal-biggest loss in the AFLW[48] until its 96-point loss in round 5.[49]
Gold Coast's winning margin of 33 points against West Coast was its biggest win in the AFLW until its 34-point win in round 7.[50]
Melbourne rebranded itself as the Narrm Football Club for Indigenous Round; Narrm is the traditional name for Melbourne in the Woiwurrung language.[13]
Greater Western Sydney's score of 9.11 (65) and winning margin of 47 points against Sydney is its highest score[51] and biggest win in the AFLW.[49]
Gold Coast's losing margin of 73 points against Brisbane is its biggest loss in the AFLW.[52]
Essendon's score of 13.6 (84) against West Coast is the highest score of any team in its debut season in AFLW history.[53] Its first-half score of 9.4 (58) was also the highest first-half score in AFLW history[54] until it was surpassed in round 10.[55]
Melbourne rebranded itself as the Narrm Football Club for Indigenous Round; Narrm is the traditional name for Melbourne in the Woiwurrung language.[13]
Carlton became the first team in AFLW history to play in consecutive draws.[56]
The Collingwood v Adelaide match marked the first time an AFLW match was officiated by three female field umpires.[57]
The Gold Coast v Port Adelaide match was originally scheduled to be played at Kombumerri Park, however the AFL moved the match to Bond University due to the condition of Kombumerri Park's playing surface.[58]
Adelaide's score of 15.7 (97) and winning margin of 96 points against Greater Western Sydney is its highest score in the AFLW and the biggest win in AFLW history.[59]
The North Melbourne v Sydney match was originally scheduled to be played at Arden Street Oval, however after heavy use and bad weather, the AFL moved the match to Swinburne Centre due to the condition of Arden Street Oval's playing surface.[60]
North Melbourne's winning margin of 66 points against Sydney is its biggest win in the AFLW.[61]
West Coast's losing margin of 78 points against Melbourne is its biggest loss in the AFLW.[62]
Geelong's score of 15.12 (102) and winning margin of 75 points is its highest score and biggest win in the AFLW;[63] its first-half score of 9.6 (60) is the highest first-half score in AFLW history.[55]
The semi-final between Adelaide and Collingwood was delayed by 30 minutes due to lightning, and by a further 20 minutes during the quarter-time break.[66]
The following table can be sorted from biggest winning margin to biggest losing margin for each round. If two or more matches in a round are decided by the same margin, these margins are sorted by percentage (i.e. the lowest-scoring winning team is ranked highest and the lowest-scoring losing team is ranked lowest). Home matches are in bold, and opponents are listed above the margins.
Fremantle chose to not renew the contract of senior coach Trent Cooper (left) at the end of the season, while Carlton and senior coach Daniel Harford (right) parted ways following a club review
Brisbane kicked 33 goals across the first three rounds of the season, an AFLW record,[67] and became the first AFLW team to score more than 200 points across the first three rounds of a season.[68]
Four teams recorded scores of 0.1 (1), the lowest score in AFLW history, during the season: Fremantle in round 2 against Geelong,[69] Greater Western Sydney in round 5 against Adelaide,[59] Sydney in round 6 against North Melbourne[70] and West Coast in round 10 against Melbourne.[71]
Brisbane won the minor premiership by the closest practical margin, finishing above Melbourne on the ladder by 0.3 percentage points; had Melbourne scored just one more point during the season, it would have won the minor premiership.[71]
The AFL Women's All-Australian team was announced on 22 November; Garner was named captain, while Brisbane captain Breanna Koenen was named vice-captain.[80] North Melbourne captain Emma Kearney was selected for the seventh consecutive season.[80] Anderson was not selected, becoming the first AFLW player to win the league best and fairest award but miss All-Australian selection in the same season.[81]
