An MCG doubleheader and multiple AFLW curtain-raisers lead several Round 23 and 24 match ups as the AFL confirm a handful of games in the final fortnight of the 2026 season.
In Round 23, Richmond and St Kilda will face off at the MCG in the early Saturday afternoon, before Hawthorn and Collingwood will do battle later in the evening.
The round will be kicked off by a mouth-watering contest between Fremantle and Adelaide in Perth.
The same weekend will consist of AFLW games as a curtain-raiser before North Melbourne and Geelong's clash on Saturday, while a women's match will follow the Giants and Eagles on Sunday.
In Round 23, the details of three games are yet to be confirmed.
The next week has Saturday's fixtures all but locked in, while Collingwood will host Brisbane on the Friday night at the MCG.
There are five contests yet to be determined, although the AFL will reveal the fixture of the final fortnight of the season on Wednesday.
More to come.
