The AFL has today announced fixture adjustments to both Round 11 and 12 of the 2020 Toyota AFL Premiership Season.
In Round 11, Geelong Cats vs St Kilda scheduled for the Gabba, will change to a St Kilda home game.
With the support of both clubs, St Kilda will become the designated home team to help achieve broader equity in home club commercial deliverables (i.e. LED perimeter signage). Club member access will remain equitable for both clubs. The match location and time remain the same.

Adelaide Crows vs Collingwood at the Adelaide Oval was previously scheduled to start at 7:10pm EST / 6:40pm local. It will now start at 6:35pm EST / 6:05pm local.
The start time for the match has been brought forward to ensure Collingwood fly back to Queensland that night (noting North Melbourne will now also fly out of Adelaide on that flight).
In Round 12, North Melbourne vs Brisbane Lions was scheduled for Blundstone Arena, Tasmania. This match will be relocated to Metricon Stadium, Queensland, with the day and time to remain the same.
The extension of Tasmania’s border restrictions has meant a need to relocate this game, with Metricon Stadium preferred given both clubs are based in Queensland.
