SUNDAY'S round six match between North Melbourne and Sydney has been moved to the Swinburne Centre due to the poor condition of the Arden Street playing surface. 

Roos coach Darren Crocker hinted at the change for his side's home game after their win on Friday afternoon. 

"The ground has copped a bit of a battering between the use and the weather, so we'll just have to see how that plays out, but we'll definitely be down here somewhere against Sydney," Crocker said. 

The scheduled time of 5:10pm AEST remains unchanged. 

Fans who have already purchased tickets will be able to use them to access the new venue. Refunds will be available for anyone who is unable to attend the relocated game via www.ticketmaster.com.au
