"With AFL Grand Final Day traditionally busy for Tasmania Police, we're urging anyone celebrating the match tomorrow to do so responsibly," said Acting Inspector Adrian Leary.
"With tomorrow's match returning to its traditional time slot of 2:30pm, I urge anyone planning to consume alcohol while watching the match to have a plan to get home safely.
"If you're planning on drinking, look after your mates, and never drink drive - we don't want anyone's day to end in a tragedy."
Tasmania Police will patrol entertainment precincts state-wide and remind the community that antisocial, drunk, and unruly behaviour won't be tolerated by police.
"Police want everyone to enjoy their Grand Final day celebrations tomorrow and to get home safely," Acting Inspector Leary said.
