## Resource

Tasmania Devils secure exclusive access to northern Tasmania, blocking Hawthorns future games. This move, following intense negotiations, grants Devils control over a market already considered small. The economic impact of Hawthorn games in Launceston, generating over $20 million in 2022, raises concerns about the Devils ability to fill the void.
