North Melbourne will play in its first AFLW Grand Final on Sunday after earning the right to face Brisbane over the weekend.
The Kangaroos toppled the reigning premiers in Melbourne last week before holding out Adelaide by a solitary point in a thriller on Sunday.
The 4.8 (32) to 4.7 (31) win marked the second tight contest for the weekend, with the Lions also holding on for a four-point win over Geelong on Saturday.
So good ! Well done Darren Crocker and all involved after years of toiling away. Great work @NMFCOfficial - such a buzz after a tough few seasons for Kangas fans. Bring on the GF!! 💙🤍

Brisbane fell to Melbourne in last year’s decider.
The 2023 Grand Final is now locked in for 2:30pm AEDT on Sunday afternoon at Ikon Park. North Melbourne enters slim favourites, while the Lions won by two points when the two sides met in Round 4 earlier this year.
All the action will be LIVE on SEN on Sunday.
