The 2027 AFL Grand Final will take place on the first Saturday in October due to scheduling conflicts with a cricket test and an NFL match at the MCG.
The 2027 AFL Grand Final is now scheduled for the first Saturday in October, a change prompted by scheduling conflicts involving the MCG. This includes the 150th Anniversary cricket test match and an NFL game.
Historically, seven AFL Grand Finals have occurred in October, with notable instances in 2010, 2011, 2015, and 2016. The rescheduling is necessary as the MCG will be occupied from March 11-15 for the cricket test between Australia and England.
Additionally, the AFL plans to eliminate the Opening Round, although matches will still be held in northern states to initiate the season. The NFL match is also set to be relocated to avoid clashes with AFL finals.
