The Community Round fixture has been released. Clubs across Victoria were asked to apply to host these matches and the AFL reportedly had a very strong response. So much so that many clubs missed out and subsequently made their disappointment known to the AFL and requested to remain as backups should there be any issues with the selected clubs.
Matches will be played across suburban Melbourne and in regional centres including Bendigo, Ballarat and Geelong. Some top quality matches that will majorly determine who will battle for the top few places in the mens tournament include the NZ vs USA match as Montrose, Ireland vs Nauru at the QEO in Bendigo and PNG vs South Africa at Geelong.
The three Women's Division matches will be played at Plenty, St Albans and Wheelers Hill.
