QLD Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk put in a bid to hold the 2020 AFL grand final in the Sunshine State.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ms. Palaszczuk says Queensland aims to host the AFL grand final this year after the state became the home of footy. Her bid came after the recent announcement that the remaining AFL season would be based in Queensland amid Victoria\u2019s coronavirus outbreak.<\/p>\n

If Queensland is hosting the AFL season, I have told the AFL that we should potentially host the Grand Final, too… @AFL<\/a> #AFL<\/a><\/p>\n
