In the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, the AFL has been suspended until at least May 31 and that could be pushed out even further if things don't get better anytime soon.
But, there are whispers that a return date may be set and in place within the next 10 weeks.
Speaking onย SEN,ย Andy Maher said that he has some mail that June 11th is the date that the AFL are looking at getting things back on track and to return to action.
โI'm told, by reliable sources, they've got a date in mind,โ Maher said on SENโs Bob and Andy.
โIt's second week of June-ish. Full bottle toward it. 11 June is a little date that I've been... let's just see where that goes.
โWe'll just keep an eye on it, I didn't want to chase it too hard because how would you know?
โBut I'm told in high offices around the place, people who have a lot riding on this, that 11 June is a date that may have been scheduled in. Whether that's official, I'm not sure.โ
