Hello. I will be doing a good article review of this article. I aim to complete my review within the next day or so. Just so you know, I am familiar with the sport.

If you would like to return the favour, I have several good article nominations active right now, which you can find at WP:GAN. Steelkamp (talk) 03:03, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

Will do. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 05:55, 23 April 2022 (UTC)

Good article criteria

Well written

• I don't think it is good to have three paragraphs for such a short lead. Steelkamp (talk) 04:33, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y Reduced to two per WP:LEAD. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 07:32, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

• 12:00pm local time – Maybe you could link to Australian Central Standard Time

  Y Done. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 07:32, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

• The Crows led all match and kept... – This is the first mention of the Crows in the article, so readers wouldn't know what they are. I suggest changing the first sentence of that paragraph to Adelaide, nicknamed the Crows, finished the... Steelkamp (talk) 04:33, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y Done. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 07:32, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

• Same goes for the Demons. Steelkamp (talk) 04:33, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y Done. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 07:32, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

• Leading goalkicker Ashleigh Woodland booted two goals – Is that leading goalkicker for the season or for that match? Steelkamp (talk) 04:33, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y For the season. Added. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 07:32, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

• There is no mention of Chloe Bremner (supported by the Australian Girls Choir) in the prose, only the infobox and the scorecard. Steelkamp (talk) 04:33, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y Added. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 07:32, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

• while Tyla Hanks had the job on Phillips. – Sounds like unencyclopedic language. Steelkamp (talk) 04:33, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y Wanted to avoid saying "tagged" twice. Oh well. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 07:32, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

• Adelaide continued its attacks, but pressure from the Melbourne defence, and resulting inaccurate kicking, led to four more behinds. – Grammar is off here. Steelkamp (talk) 05:13, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y Re-written. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 06:34, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

• The match commenced with Adelaide's key midfielders Erin Phillips, Anne Hatchard and Ebony Marinoff starting in the centre square. – No mention of Melbourne's players? Steelkamp (talk) 05:13, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

• Y Added a bit. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 06:34, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

• The third quarter opened with Ponter taking a strong mark in the goal square of a long-range kick from Woodland, which she then converted. – This should be reworded. No one unfamiliar with AFL media lingo would know what "converted" means. Steelkamp (talk) 05:13, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y Actually, that is one they would be familiar with, from other codes. Re-written. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 06:34, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

• Pearce reinforced the back line, and Tayla Harris was moved into the ruck. Melbourne's Kate Hore kicked a goal after marking a long-range shot from Harris, who needed to lift to avoid becoming the first woman to lose three grand finals against Adelaide playing for three different teams. – I'm not a fan of "needed to lift" considering Australian rules football is a team game and not reliant on the performance of any single player. It's also not clear if this is referring to Harris or Hore. Steelkamp (talk) 05:13, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y Agreed. Re-written. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 06:34, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

• Adelaide captain Chelsea Randall kept her quiet – It's not clear who this is referring to. Steelkamp (talk) 05:31, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y Re-written. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 06:34, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

• The Adelaide defence that also included Sarah Allan also stood firm. – Could be reworded. Steelkamp (talk) 05:31, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y Re-written. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 06:34, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

Verifiable with no original research

• My search on Earwig's Copyvio Detector turned out fine. Steelkamp (talk) 04:33, 22 April 2022 (UTC)
• The match was broadcast by the Seven Network and simulcast on Foxtel, Kayo Sports, the afl.com.au and womens.afl websites, and on the AFL and AFLW apps. It was also available on radio nationally via ABC Radio, Triple M and SEN. – Source does not show Foxtel or Kayo. Steelkamp (talk) 04:33, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y Was willing to drop Kayo, but dammit, I watched the match on Foxtel. Added another source. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 07:32, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

• Adelaide, known as the Crows, finished the 10-game regular season in first position with nine wins and one loss, and the competition's highest percentage, 216.6%. Their only loss came in round six against the Western Bulldogs by 1 point at Norwood Oval, who finished outside the top six and did not qualify for the finals series. – Unsourced. Steelkamp (talk) 04:17, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y Added a reference. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 05:27, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

• Melbourne, known as the Demons, also lost only one match throughout the regular season and claimed nine wins. Their percentage of 186.5% saw them finish in second position and, like Adelaide, they had a bye in the first week of the finals and hosted the winner of the second qualifying final. – Unsourced. Steelkamp (talk) 04:17, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y Added a reference. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 05:27, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

• and put in a late entry for mark of the year. – I don't think you should say this when the sources don't say mark of the year. Steelkamp (talk) 05:31, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y Actually, they do, but re-phrased. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 06:34, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

Broad in its coverage

• Weather should be mentioned more than just a symbol in the scorecard. Steelkamp (talk) 04:33, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y Added. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 07:32, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

• Sponsors should be mentioned. Womens.afl calls it the "2022 NAB AFLW Grand Final". Steelkamp (talk) 04:33, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

  How many do you want? See here for the complete list. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 07:32, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

  Just NAB, the naming rights sponsor of the grand final. Steelkamp (talk) 04:55, 23 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y Added. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 05:55, 23 April 2022 (UTC)

• Should boundary and goal umpires be mentioned? Steelkamp (talk) 04:33, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y We dfon't normally, but since we have a source, I have added them. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 07:32, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

Stable

• No edit wars or content disputes as far as I can tell.

Illustrated, if possible

• Copyright on the images is ok. I took the liberty of adding the upright parameter to the player images so they aren't as large. Steelkamp (talk) 04:33, 22 April 2022 (UTC)
• Not required for GA, but the images should have alt text added to them for accessibility reasons. Steelkamp (talk) 04:33, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

  Y Added. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 07:32, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

General

Alright, good enough to pass now. Steelkamp (talk) 09:28, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
