Lot of Saint supporters in Tassie. Hopefully they can get along.

But we can’t win in Tas

Isn’t that the excuse for leaving there and giving up about 15M along the way?!

Don't like loosing but it will give us a better draft pick & I won't be too disappointed if we lose but if we win I will still be happy win win really

Be nice to have a crowd and cooperate with AFL / Freo. Goodwill never goes astray. Jimmy W can catch up with family and guys can go out after, unless its a silly FIFO game. Otherwise all good.

Wouldn't it be fun if Hill plays out of his skin and Freo lose. Just kidding.

TASMANIA will host its 12th AFL game this season, with this Sunday's clash between St Kilda and Fremantle locked in for Hobart's Blundstone Arena.

The match, which will go ahead at 12.15pm AEST, is the last piece in the final-round puzzle after the eight other venues were confirmed on Monday.


The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Yes the money hurts - the club has a long and damning history, including moving the training hub from Moorabbin. From what I have heard the players were more upset about that than playing in Tassie.

Such a long time ago now, plus the $$$ given to the coach who didn't like the club down playing down there. A very very costly ego in so many ways.

Wrapped to see the Saints playing there this weekend, if it wasn't for lockdown I'd be flying down Friday & coming back Monday. Both Launey & Hobart are cracking spots to enjoy watching the footy.

Miserable weather forecast for the game.....cold with high winds and up to 20mm of rain. Would have been better going to Perth where it will be dry with light winds
