2023 VFL: Footscray’s fixture confirmed
The first 14 rounds of the 2023 Smithy’s VFL season have today been confirmed by the AFL.
As announced earlier this week, Footscray will meet Casey in a round one clash at Casey Fields on Saturday 25 March, which will also be the Dogs’ first of nine Saturday games.
The Bulldogs will then host five of their next eight matches on various home decks due to the VU Whitten Oval redevelopment works.
These venues include Marvel Stadium (Round 2), ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne (Rounds 5 and 6) and Avalon Airport Oval in Werribee (Rounds 8 and 11).
The match-ups for the remaining eight rounds have also been released, with dates and venues yet to be confirmed.
All matches in the 2023 Smithy’s VFL season will be live streamed free via the AFL website (afl.com.au) and AFL Live Official App.
Where Smithy’s VFL matches are ticketed, entry is $10 for adults, $5 for concession holders and kids under 15 are free. Some venues don't charge for entry. AFL ticketing prices will apply for VFL matches played as curtain-raisers and curtain-closers to AFL matches at AFL venues.
