WOMEN players are set to face the same level of Match Review Panel scrutiny as their male counterparts.
AFL game development executive Simon Lethlean revealed to AFL.com.au there will be an MRP for AFLW that will be a two or three-person panel much like the men's competition.
"They'll review all the games, all the tapes from the weekend's matches," Lethlean said.
"We'll have a Monday release on what charges have been laid.
"You expect there to be incidents, with clashes and whatever else, I'm not sure about the biff," Lethlean said.
"They're competitive these women, they're the best athletes in their game and they have a big crack, so I imagine that the MRP will have some things to look at."
The AFL is in talks with broadcasters, and remains hopeful every game in the new competition could be telecast, with at least one likely to be shown on free-to-air broadcaster Channel Seven.
Full broadcasts of games will mean more television cameras and therefore more angles for the MRP to review.
