How do we watch?
no news on it as yet.

This is from the press release though:

The fixture will deliver fans a blockbuster schedule of matches and allow maximised broadcast of the game with the VFL to enter the homes of more fans across more channels in 2021.

The Anzac Day weekend of football in Round Two will see the first Thursday night game of the season when Footscray Bulldogs travel to Sydney to play GWS GIANTS under lights at Blacktown International Sports Park. Thursday night matches will be a regular part of the VFL fixture in 2021 with games to be broadcast live for footy fans across the country.

Tbh I think it would be smarter for the lions and suns to play in a 6 team Queensland comp given the likelihood of the VFL being interrupted by Covid
The AFL and VFL are linked so if we travel, so will the VFL team. If we are at home, so will the VFL team

There is a case on the gc today , a tradie stripper of all things , if GC gets locked down the Suns will have to go into a hub , don't know whether they would take two teams worth, they should have waited till Covid has been sorted before doing a new 22 team interstate comp
