Overall: Verified Main, ALT1, ALT3. Struck ALT2: Cathy and Ruby were not the first; Adelaide's Hannah Button and Rachelle Martin were the first sisters to win an AFLW Grand Final, in 2022. Main hook preferred. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 05:09, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

<sigh> How could I (or the afl.com.au journo, for that matter [6]) forget? What a stitch-up... oh well. But yes, I always thought that the Sydney story was strongest. Otherwise, Hawkeye7, as this is only my first nomination, I was under the impression QPQ wasn't required? 4TheWynne (talk contribs) 09:00, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
Heh. Compare with the current version. [7] Stitch up indeed! I did know about the umpires, because I included it in my article on the AFLW Grand Final. Alas, it did not pass GA. I didn't realise that you had no previous nominations. Good to go then! Hawkeye7 (discuss) 09:10, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
