Cool vapour barrier

i have been renovating my 1 1/2 storey war house . it has a 1 foot crawl space beneath the first floor joists. it was freezing on that floor that you couldnt walk on it without slippers, all that was separating me from winter was 1 1/2 inches of fooring sandwiched by felt paper. what i am thinking is to channel chicken wire between the joists,staple it, and throw R-22 nice and snug between the joists. do i need to put vapor barrier just like a wall(ive already got some 3/4 plywood down without it)

Vapor barrier would go on the ground.
