2015 Fixture

[Greasyrhys]

Damn it! Bet our final away game next year will be against the weagles...

 

[Portology]

And Carlton open the season against Richmond on the Thursday night in the nationally televised game. **** off Carlton.

I think of ^^^^^ that as a kind of joke, warm-up game. After months off from footy I still CBF watching it. That has to say something about the two perpetual non-entities involved. I'd actually rather watch Melbourne play GWS FFS. At least we can see if one side looks like it might improve and/or or look for potential trade targets. So in effect, the season actually starts on friday night (at best)...

 

[Schulzenfest]

So the Crows have the mid-Sunday afternoon game (which will presumably be delayed unless it's a sell-out) and we have the late Sunday afternoon game? How does that work with TV coverage?

Great stuff AFL, it's only been one round and you've already ****ed the fixture up.

 

[LFC2010]

Can't believe we're made to go to bloody Perth again... WHO THE HELL IS RUNNING THIS LEAGUE?

Proof this league still thinks it's the VFL.

Could it be a 4:10 start in Perth and make it a Sunday night game here?

 

[finbarr]

The one week of the season where the AFL can maximise our recovery time backing up from yet another Perth trip by putting the game on at the start of the round and they schedule us for the Sunday night. Good one you bellends.

Not including the Semi Final

Out of the last 9 times Port have played Fremantle, Fremantle have played 5 home Port have had 4

The 1st rnd next season will make it 6 to 4 in the last 10 minor round games...

AFL are an absolute basket case.

 

[ozph1870]

Don't like how the Bulldogs and West Coast get a Saturday night game. That should be destined for Sunday twilight.

have to debut the dogs 7 million dollar boy on saturday night.

 

[Andre]

Apparently we are playing Freo at Patersons in Round 1, on a Sunday.

Gillon the crows fan at it again. Trying to have us start with a loss and them a victory to give them momentum. So predictable.

 

[Sewer de Lance]

Welcome the challenge, bring it on.

 

[PAFC forever]

If this was accurate we would probably have the hardest schedule of any side. Miss out on the weakest of the top 6 (geelong kangaroos) and get arguably the strongest 7-12 team (Richmond) twice.

Its just a prediction, but we were always going to get one of the hardest draws in the comp and playing Fremantle in the 1st round pretty much confirms we will play them twice.

 

[PAFC forever]

We were always going to get a tough draw and I welcome it. If we are going be premiership contenders next year playing Fremantle in Perth should not hold any fears or playing any of the big sides twice. Whoever we play the one thing that will play to our advantage is we will play at home in the last round which is pretty important in our preparation for the finals.

 

[Port01]

Poor Freo supporters, 3 home games in a row against Port.
Will be some kind of record.

 

[xflamedancer]

So that should give us a round three away Showdown then.

 

[PAFC forever]

The human mind cannot conceive of a more mundane way to start the season than Richmond v bloody Carlton.

They say Richmond and Carlton are 2 of the 'big 4 clubs' and there are clearly just trying to manufacture that these days with the opening round and the amount of Friday night games they get its just a joke.

Unprecedented, surely.

Someone had R22 in Perth then a MCG final + SCG final + 2 MCG finals in 1998.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Rd1 away = Rd23 away hopefully in Melbourne.

Means Rd 2 and 4 will be home and ANZAC rd home game.

For TV purposes Crows should be 2-10 Sunday bounce down and Porf 5-10 EST for Rd 1.

I reckon we will get a 4-10 SA time Sunday for Rd 2 and Rd 3 will be crows home Showdown probably also on Sunday.

 

[tribey]

Someone had R22 in Perth then a MCG final + SCG final + 2 MCG finals in 1998.

Yeah that wasn't what I was angling at.

We're away to Fremantle 3 of 5 fixture weeks, Freo will have played us in 3 consecutive home games.

 

[tim cotrill]

what the * is going on? move over west coast we might as well just live in Perth now.

on the plus side we will beat them 2 of 3 times away.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

I reckon our win loss % at Subi is better than Freo's.

 

[Moist Biscuit]

Sorry to intrude guys, but what the * are the AFL thinking? This is an absolute Blockbuster. Should be a Saturday night game for sure. Absolute joke.

 

[tim cotrill]

how come the spuds across the road get the first home game?

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

how come the spuds across the road get the first home game?

Rotation - we got the first one last year and our number 1 request was for Rd 4 to have a home game in the ANZAC round.
