[Mr AFL]

When does the fixtures get released. It's usually at the end of October/early November isn't it?

Spent 10 minutes searching for last years off season calendar to see if you were going to start this again Seppo. Then this thread appeared.

Thumbs up! Thanks!

Anyone know when day one of pre-season training starts?

Anyone know when day one of pre-season training starts?

It's going to be roughly 6 weeks from now, probably around the 16th November.

The players EBA has changed so they shifted the date of the B&F so players could shoot off for their holidays last week and come back in time for the Doig and then get straight back into training.

This is insane I'm already getting excited for 2014...

I honestly believe we could go top 2, and not be a sleeper club that gets talked about in september. I'm talking benchmark of the comp.

I think Mundy is the key to our window - so time is now! Deserves an AA if he plays like this year. Injury free seems a shoe in to get rewarded.

I have major post footy depression - this is the sort of thing that keeps me going lol
