Canberra squads to take it to Sydney
Next weekend on Saturday, 18 May the best women and men from AFL Canberra will face off against those from AFL Sydney.
The leagues will meet for the first time since 2016, and with only a handful of players involved in that match on the 2024 roster, bragging rights are ripe for the taking as a new generation rivalry is born.
The matches take place on Manuka Oval which, along with AFL Canberra, celebrates 100 years in 2024.
