AFL releases full fixture for 2027 season

The AFL has released the fixture for the 2027 season.

The new season kicks off later than usual, with Sydney hosting Geelong at the SCG on Wednesday, March 17.

With the removal of Opening Round, all 18 clubs will line up in Round 1, with the traditional MCG blockbuster between Richmond and Carlton shifted to early Saturday afternoon.

The Sydney Swans have been dealt the most prime time fixtures with nine, following by the two Grand Final teams in Brisbane (eight) and Fremantle (eight).

St Kilda and North Melbourne are without a prime time slot.

The league has provided the times, dates and venues up until Round 15, with the rest of the games known but specifics to come later.
