Football Victoria (FV) can provide an update on the Finals structure for the 2022 Dockerty Cup.
Given that the Australia Cup qualifying rounds serve as the Dockerty Cup qualifying rounds - and Football Australia have allocated FV with a fifth position in the Australia Cup Round of 32 - a solution was needed to realign the five teams into two semi-final ties.
As a result, FV have now confirmed the Competitions Structure for the 2022 Dockerty Cup Final.
