With 2020’s calendar being gutted, the Swans are looking to our oldest and most heated rivalry, the rivalry that has raged on the North and South of the DMZ for generations. It was this rivalry in fact, which gave our ANZAC Friendship Match the base from which it has grown.
See our Facebook page for updated details as they come to hand!
ROUND 1 IN HANOI
Round 1 in Hanoi ended with one game to the North, one game to the South. The series is very much alive as we venture to the South.

7th of November will see a full day of sport!
The Gaelic will get things going early, with the AFLW taking the field at 1pm and the mens at 4:20pm.
FIELD ADDRESS
All games are at:
San Bong Da 79 in District 9: https://goo.gl/maps/5nLnXVZoXcTu5UbX8
