The AFL chief says a final call will be made within days on where the sport’s showpiece event will be held but one thing is for certain - it will be held before a crowd. agerealfooty afl grandfinal

, said on Friday a final decision on whether the showpiece event remained at the MCG or shifted interstate was to be made within days.

“We have got a great partnership with the Victorian government, we have got a great sports minister, we are having almost daily conversations. They are supportive of us progressing discussions with other states because they know we need to have back-up plans.”What is clear is that McLachlan will have the grand final held before a crowd.

McLachlan said the schedule for the first week of the finals was likely to be released on Sunday night, with matches in South Australia, Queensland and Tasmania. “We have pushed ahead, everyone knows we are going from round 23 into the finals [next weekend], to keep the momentum up,” he said.
