Housing affordability protesters gatecrash Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's announcement of $240 million in funding for a stadium on the Hobart waterfront. The project is central to the state gaining the AFL's 19th licence, and league boss Gillon McLachlan says a decision will be made "in the coming days".
A funding announcement for Hobart's controversial stadium proposal is imminent, meaning Tasmania will get its long-awaited AFL team. But opponents are concerned planning for the redevelopment has been "hasty" and "ill-considered".
