Impact of COVID-19 pandemic

Matches cancelled

Just like the 2020 season, the 2022 season was impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Stars' Round 1 match against Central Pulse was cancelled following a COVID-19 outbreak in the Pulse squad.[25][26] Further Stars' matches were cancelled throughout the season, most notably in early April when three of their matches were cancelled across Rounds 4 and 5.[27][28][29]
