THE AFL has released the second half of the VFL and VFLW fixtures today.
VFL will kick off the second half of the fixture release with a Saturday primetime broadcast game against Port Melbourne at ETU Stadium, whilst VFLW will start Round 10 at home with a clash also against Port Melbourne.
Bluebaggers should mark Saturday 5 July in their calendars as traditional rivals Carlton and Collingwood go head-to-head, starting with the VFLW at Victoria Park at 10:05am before the VFL side heads to Frankston’s Kinetic Stadium for the VFL’s broadcast game on Channel 7 at 7:10pm.
It will be one of three broadcast games in the second half of the year for the Blues, who head to Port Melbourne’s ETU Stadium in Round 14 before a return to Kinetic Stadium to take on the Dolphins in Round 19, meaning Bluebaggers all over the country can tune in.

On the other hand, the VFLW Blues will have four of their final six games at home, including the last game of the home-and-away season against Box Hill.
