The AFL braces for the footy season to be hit by Australia's fuel crisis - as the league raises one word that will bring back awful memories for fans
The AFL has started preparing for the possibility that the fuel crisis will have a shocking impact on this season's play – with the possibility of clubs operating out of hubs raised at a high-level meeting. 'Kelli Underwood reporting on @abcsport that the fuel shortage was raised in the CEO's meeting earlier this week,' ABC reporter Ben Cameron tweeted. The fuel crisis has already resulted in Qantas slashing a number of flights through its budget arm, Jetstar. 'I'm wondering whether or not, as we get closer, and if the fuel prices continue to go up, some will bail,' Issko said. Unleaded petrol prices hit 252.2 cents per litre.
