The AFL advises it has updated the fixture for Round Six of the 2022 NAB AFL Women’s Competition.

Matchups remain the same, however, changes have been made to the timeslots of each game to ensure adequate days’ break for teams as a result of recent changes to the fixture.

Geelong's Round 6 clash versus Gold Coast Suns originally scheduled to be played on Sunday, February 13 will now be played on Friday, February 11.

The match will be televised on Foxtel/Kayo with the first bounce at 7.10pm AEDT (6.10pm local time).

AFL General Manager Competition Management Laura Kane said the league thanked everyone in the NAB AFLW Competition for their ongoing commitment to the season.

“Firstly, I’d like to acknowledge Fremantle and the West Coast Eagles for the role they’ve played in ensuring the season commenced and the season continues,” Ms. Kane said.

“Fremantle is currently serving a quarantine period after returning to Perth following their game on Sunday while West Coast returned to Perth following their game last night after both teams spent time on the road in Victoria.

“The health and safety of everyone in the community remains paramount and the AFL, together with Fremantle, the West Coast Eagles and the travelling teams, have agreed to strict protocols as approved by the Western Australian Government.

“While the ongoing pandemic continues to impact and challenge our competition and our wider community, we want to thank every AFLW Club, players and the AFLPA, umpires, venues, governments, ticketing agents and all supporters for their understanding and commitment to the 2022 NAB AFL Women’s Competition.

“The fixture remains a week-to-week proposition and the AFL will continue to work closely with respective state governments and health authorities on arrangements that both protects the health and safety of the community and allows us to progress the NAB AFLW season.”
