Still no date for Tassie team announcement

AFL boss Gill McLachlan has playfully told media in Adelaide he was about to fly to Hobart for an announcement when asked today (Friday) about a Tasmanian team in the competition.

The decision was initially broadly anticipated for the end of August.

McLachlan did offer that the direction of the bid is going very well, and that other clubs are broadly supportive, however it isn’t universal.
