No radio station is currently going to broadcast from Aurora on Saturday into Melbourne.
However, Radio station 3AW may ask their sister station Magic 1278 to do the broadcast.
So stay tuned and check out 1278 on Saturday.
Fox Footy broadcasting live - which is fine for me but not everyone has this.

The Southern Cross Radio Network has agreed to provide a match call of Saturday's match between the Kangaroos and Hawthorn to be played at Aurora Stadium in Launceston, on Magic 1278.
The Kangaroos v Hawthorn game was not scheduled to be called back into Melbourne by any of the AFL's radio rights partners but AFL Chief Operating Officer Ben Buckley said Southern Cross had stepped forward to provide an additional call team to its regular 3AW outfit to provide a service to fans of the two clubs.
"We are delighted this game will be available to Kangaroos and Hawthorn fans on Magic 1278 and we are very appreciative of Southern Cross's efforts to arrange for a match call in such a short period of time," Buckley said.

Does anyone know if the radio coverage will be put through the AFL site? As I'm in Scotland this is how I rely on getting radio coverage so hoping they'll be plugging it the usual way on the day of the game.
