2015 Fixture Leaks

Freo vs geelong probs twice again

 

[Billyc]

Hawks will play all the top sides twice.

Hawks will only play melbourne and Carlton once. Again.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Hawthorn vs 9 of the lowest drawing clubs at home to feed the perception were a poor drawing team, with home games vs geelong and collingwood only

Well, the AFL aren't going to squander anyone who draws on Launceston.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Well, the AFL aren't going to squander anyone who draws on Launceston.

Yet, we haven't played essendon or Carlton at home in yrs, instead we've been blessed with taking on the likes of gws and gc...

 

[Xtreme]

Not confirmed, but that's what we've been pushing hard for, and what I hope we get. Should have made that clearer.

Just the right amount so they forget how to play well on the MCG

Purrrrrrfect in fact

* I hate Richmond v Carlton to always start the year. Consistently boring.

 

[Moist Biscuit]

The loser of the Freo vs Port game will probably be written off straight away for the flag. Seems to happen quite often.

 

[AM]

Beating the Hawks so early will suck a lot of the enjoyment out of seeing them sweat for awhile.

 

[Biggy_Boy]

How many consecutive six-day breaks will we start the season with?

 

[The Prosecutor]

Essendon has now played eight of its last nine round one fixtures as the away team.

 

[BigVic]

West Coast vs Western Bulldogs again to kick start 2015 for the Eagles.

 

[master bate]

Has to be better than this years round 1.

Bring on the Carlton and Richmond hysteria and the Beams cup already! And Freo v Port - will that be a Sunday night Victorian game? Makes sense not to start it until after 5 local time.

I wonder if the Cats can make Easter Monday interesting still.

 

[Hawkk]

Well, the AFL aren't going to squander anyone who draws on Launceston.

Maybe, but we play the 4th most home games at the MCG - 7 MCG home games to be exact. Needn't worry though, 4 of the 6 highest drawing home games last season were Hawthorn games, 3 of those games were 70k plus Hawthorn home games.

Why would the AFL squander anyone on the MCG

Nice true but lol

 

[BF Tiger]

Gee that Sunday looks interesting.

 

[Clark G]

**** I hate Richmond v Carlton to always start the year. Consistently boring.

They don't always start the year. See the last three seasons as examples.

Spot on. Way too much emphasis is placed on Round 1 results. Happens every year.

 

[Clark G]

Freo vs geelong probs twice again

If they always have a good game and/or draw good crowds, why not? No different to Geelong and Hawthorn getting to play each other twice a year for a while now.

 

[Ketchup]

Fantastic. Top of the ladder round 1.

You mean Brisbane?

 

[Ketchup]

You mean Brisbane?

s**t sorry, I meant second. Forgot Sydney were playing a VFL side.

 

[Footypie32]

Port deserve those Friday night games. They play an entertaining brand of footy and teams should be rewarded for that. Smaller clubs take note.

You mean like they did in Round 1 2014?
