Must See 2021 AFL Live TV

The 2021 AFL Premiership is set to be a fascinating affair with five major teams in with a shout of reaching the final on September 25th. The coronavirus may have impacted the sport last year and taken AFL away from its spiritual home in Victoria, but that is all set to change in 2021.

All Victoria teams, such as Geelong, Richmond and Melbourne can play home game this year, and the Grand Final will be played again at the MCG instead of further north at The Gabba.
