Due to multiple washout rounds this season, including last weekend’s Round 11 matches, the IRL has been forced to change the remaining schedule to ensure competition integrity and fairness.
In the event of any future rounds in jeopardy of being washed out, all games scheduled for that round will be cancelled, as there are no more opportunities to play make-up games.
