When's the draw for this announced?

[View From The Top]

I think it is this Friday.

The SMFC v Knights game is tomorrow night so that would make sense. I can't find a date anywhere though.

Full details and the list of clubs will be outlined further on Thursday ahead of Friday’s Draw. The Draw will begin at 12pm AEST and be shown LIVE on Fox Sports News (Ch 513) and streamed online on the official Westfield FFA Cup home page.

So we have the 32. Draw on Friday. I'm not sure if clubs will be drawn at random to fill the determined spots or just announced. I've heard that AU has already been drawn against a HAL side.

Top 4 HAL clubs will be drawn away to certain grassroots clubs. Bottom 6 HAL clubs will be drawn against each other. I'd expect AU to get Sydney or Perth.

I just these matches are drawn at random and not just announced.

Lame. Should be totally random.

I agree completely, but given Australia's geography and thus travel costs, it was never feasible to send Perth Glory to, say, Bonnyrigg. Likewise sending Wellington to play Broome FC for argument's sake.

True. I think to get this off the ground a few sacrifices need to be made.
Here's hoping it works!

Was hoping for us to meet Adelaide City for the first time ever sometime during the cup, but with them facing the Wanderers in the first round, thats very unlikely! Oh well next year I guess.

Feenux are unable to host the Cup match, so it'd be played here in Aus somewhere. Neutral ground.

Update: Phoenix apparently tweeted that they will play their FFA Cup matches at the home ground of the club they face.

Hindmarsh it is!
