The Cobram Roar’s senior men’s side will kick off the 2022 Albury Wodonga Football Association season in March with the full season fixture released.
The Roar will play their first three games at home in Cobram before travelling to Aloysius Park to take on the Albury Hotspurs for the first away game.
New Roar coach Vince Iannucci was not fazed by the fixture release and said it does not bother him who they play or when they play them.
Iannucci, who replaced Bill Puckett last year, said his outfit are travelling along okay ahead of the new season.
“We are preparing to be the best we can for the season and numbers are building at training,” Iannucci said.
“The squad is looking okay and I’m happy with it, we are still waiting for some people to come back.”
Iannucci said the club had lined up some pre-season games and flagged the impact COVID had on fitness levels.
“Fitness levels are not great after doing nothing for a couple of years and I am hoping to see a lot of kids out playing.”
Iannucci is stepping back into the role of head coach this season and said he is in it for the long haul.
“I’m feeling alright, we need to be patient, nothing will happen overnight,” he said.
The Roar have one Saturday twilight game in the 22-round fixture, coming in round 19 on July 30 at home against Boomers FC.
The season will kick off on March 13 at 3pm and the full fixture can be found at the Albury-Wodonga Football Association website.
