GWS Giants vs Carlton (Blacktown International Sportspark)

The GWS Giants and Carlton are both winless in AFLW season three.

In round 2, the Giants were unable to counteract the pressure and intensity that was applied all over the ground by North Melbourne and North Melbourne's skills were cleaner at Drummoyne Oval in the trying conditions.

Last round, Carlton played a more competitive brand of football and took it right up to their opponents the Crows. Carlton almost pulled off a huge upset win and if Carlton bring the same effort they bought to this match in round 3 then they could cause a boilover. 

In a must win match for the Giants and Carlton, which team will be able to do enough to secure win number one and get some life back into their season.

Fremantle vs Collingwood 

Fremantle have been the highest scoring team in AFLW 3.0 so far with their incredible potent forward line.

They average 9.5 goals from the first two rounds. 

Collingwood will have a tough task up against Fremantle, a team that has had a perfect start to it's third AFLW season. 

To stop Fremantle, Collingwood will need to play well in defense to stop Fremantle's scoring and play four quarters of football with high intensity.
