Brisbane will host the AFLW grand final if they can win their way past reigning premiers Adelaide.
The Lions, who take on the Crows at Gold Coast's Metricon Stadium on Friday night, have been given the all-clear to hold next week's decider at their Springfield headquarters.
There had been some concern over the readiness of the playing surface inside the 10,000-capacity Brighton Homes Arena at the newly-built facility.
But the AFL confirmed on Friday the venue has been given the green light by league officials.
"After an independent turf inspection at the venue this week, the turf was deemed suitable to play, clearing the way for the Brisbane Lions' state-of-the-art home base to host an AFLW grand final if Brisbane win," AFL executive member Travis Auld said.
"The AFL are working with the Brisbane Lions and a government-led task force to address all that needs to be prepared at Brighton Homes Arena.
"All hands are on deck to prepare the venue in time for an AFLW grand final, should the Brisbane Lions win on Friday night."
The decision comes with both the Gabba and Metricon Stadium unavailable because of cricket and concert commitments.
The AFLW grand final will be held on Sunday 27 November at 2.40pm (AEDT).
The league has also locked in grand final venues in Victoria and South Australia, which could be used if Adelaide topple Brisbane.
The league-owned Marvel Stadium will hold the decider if Melbourne earn the right to host it.
West Adelaide's Richmond Oval - also known as Hisense Stadium - will be the venue if the Crows and lowest-ranked North Melbourne advance.
Melbourne are determined not to be distracted by the potential of playing a home grand final in front of a big crowd.
Demons defender Sarah Lampard said her side's focus is firmly on Saturday's preliminary final against the Kangaroos at Ikon Park.
"For us, there's no point thinking about the grand final venue if we're not in it," Lampard told AAP.
"We just want to get into the grand final ... wherever it is, being in it is the first real step for us."
