Will they be announcing the fixture for round 22 tomorrow?

Not sure. I think they are negotiating with Governments in other states, so may take awhile.

I’m hearing it will be in Launceston

I’d be shocked if it was in Tassie going by the latest news in Vic.

A day is a long time in football!

All these footballers, staff, umpires, officials coming from a Red Zone while the MCG is free. Seems weird.

Makes 0 sense. Must be someone lobbying pretty hard.

Exactly why I didn’t think it would be here.

I get what you are saying but if the Tassie government allow it it can only be a good thing to play footy in front of a crowd. Sure it would suit us better to play at the MCG but our (small) loss is the Tassie footy fans gain.

Cool. Good for Tassie. I do find it baffling that two teams from a state in lockdown travel interstate to play but maybe that's just me! Especially considering the rhetoric around how it moves to justify border lockdowns this morning.

Hopefully we can make the most of getting away as a group.

Hawks will have a contract and sponsorship money they have to honour.

I cancelled my flights and accommodation to Launceston yesterday. I'd booked it in when the fixture first came out.
