The AFL has released the 2021 Community Series pre-season fixture with 18 games scheduled across 18 different venues around Australia.
The three-week pre-season competition starts on February 18 when Grand Finalists Geelong host Essendon under lights at GMHBA Stadium.
All 18 clubs will play two games over three weeks before reigning premiers Richmond and Carlton open the 2021 premiership season on March 18. Our two objectives for the pre-season fixture are to give clubs the best opportunity to prepare ahead of the season and to take matches to supporters in local and regional communities, AFL fixture boss Auld said in a statement. The AFL Community Series will see football played at local grounds right across the country and we are really looking forward to connecting the elite men s game to regional and suburban footy grounds, allowing fans to be able to watch their teams in action in their own backyard.
