The rules are the rules Kate, you can’t go changing them when they suit you.
And they’ve been the rules since 1951
"I know it's home-and-away wins and losses, and I know I'll cop this because I'm a Brisbane Lions fan and I'm one-eyed, but I find it really strange that you can have two teams potentially win the premiership in a calendar year, still not win the trophy."
It’s always been a trophy thats awarded for the best performing club during the home & away season, not a finals trophy.

Kate must have been really perplexed when Collingwood won it in 1970 despite none of their sides winning a flag that year.
No pressure girls!
It’s good they have a 9 day break ahead of the final h & a game to refresh. They were looking pretty tired. Like everyone has been saying the compressed part of the fixture has impacted all of the aflw teams this year.
Tiger will play in Darwin under similar condition to us in Cairns. Two days less rest.

I think if the Swans beat the Lions today which is unlikely looking at the ladder then the Hawks get the $1m today. Otherwise a draw or win next week will be needed against the Tigers or the Lions losing to the Saints
Yeh that Melbourne game looked like a real struggle. Couldn't get our game going at all in the last half. Also, playing in Cairns is absolutely sapping

So if they are equal on points? A draw seals our top two spot in AFLW

A draw seals top 2 and the trophy because a draw is worth 4 Mcclelland trophy wise in aflw (and a win 8)

The trophy has changed formats with loss of under 19s reserves etc. but I’m fairly sure it has never included finals
So Craig, the award for ‘best team’ is actually the men’s and women’s grand final winners
