Carlton to be on every Friday night for a change.

Considering the AFl outside of SA was down about 500 thousand in attendances, considering Essendon might draw bigger security details than crowds, considering the decline of caringbush,Western bulldogs, st kilda, carlton and probably Geelong. This fixture will need to deliver a few party tricks to maintain crowds.

Think we'll see attendances rise slightly this year.

SA should be great again like last year.

WA will stay at it's usual 35-37k average.

QLD crowds should rise slightly with both the Suns and Lions looking like they'll be on the up.

Sydney crowds should at least stay the same as this year if the Swans keep doing well, Giants are a bit of an unknown entity.

And the crowds in Victoria should improve with the blockbuster games back on Saturday Afternoon.

And the crowds in Victoria should improve with the blockbuster games back on Saturday Afternoon.

Thats the key to maintaining crowds without a drop in ticket pricing, Victorian blockbuster games.

Article in the OP says that there won't be many 'party tricks' or 'experiments' or whatever one wants to call them. They will be getting back to basics - ie Saturday arvo MCG games, no variable pricing etc.

Port 3 Friday nights hey.

All the toys out of the cot if the Crows only get 1.

Alot of people consider 3 Victorian teams may drop out of the final 8 next year and replaced by non Victorian teams. One of the party tricks will be favorable draws leading up to Victorian clubs playing Port,Freo and Sydney. Lots of 6 day breaks for the interstaters and 7-8 for their Victorian opponent.

 

[HBFlanker]

Rumours are its going to be a back to basics year in terms of scheduling.

This would mean no Sunday night games, Less Sunday twilight games

 

[TheKanga]

North vs. Port round 1 Friday night would be nice.

 

[Biggy_Boy]

Eight games at KP for Geelong.

 

[HowYouDoin]

Hope we get plenty of saturday night games, like we used to.

 

[DardySingh360]

Eight games at KP for Geelong.

Confirmed or nah?

Great news if true

 

[Biggy_Boy]

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

Port 3 Friday nights hey.

Crows will get a couple of Thursday nights to compensate.

 

[Pal22]

Round 1 match ups all but confirmed

Thursday April 2 - Carlton vs Richmond @ MCG (season opener)
Saturday April 4 - Brisbane vs Collingwood @ GABBA (night match)
Monday April 6 - Hawthorn vs Geelong @ MCG (traditional Easter Monday clash)

You would also safely predict the Giants vs Swans will again take place first up, but unlike the three previous seasons will be a Swans "home" game first up at the SCG as Spotless is out of action due to the Easter Show

Port 3 Friday nights hey.

Not really. Our brand was s**t last year so we should not expect Friday night games. But Thursday would be good for a couple. We get Crowds no matter what, so we will probably get 5 Sunday afternoon games including Easter Sunday and Mother's day. We also get to go to Perth for the last game this year

Port 3 Friday nights hey.

It doesn't read 3 @ Adelaide, it's 3 home and away.

We don't care, we get the crowd irrespective of the time slot (AFL No 1 home crowd average 2014).

 

[Doggies7]

Dogs 21 Sunday afternoon games, one Saturday game against Melbourne.

 

[Bring-Back-Powell]

Adelaide to open their season at Adelaide Oval.
Port to open on the road.

I can only assume Fremantle will open their season at Patersons, as west coast did so in 2014.

 

[Smoocher]

North vs. Port round 1 Friday night would be nice.

No thanks. We haven't won a 1st round in 5 years. Would prefer Essendon seeing they may half a team out.

Yeah but I doubt we would get Essendon first up two years in a row.
Besides they are March premiers usually.

Eight games at KP for Geelong.

Will Freo have to play them all?

 

[TazHawk15]

Dogs 21 Sunday afternoon games, one Saturday game against Melbourne.

That's nothing.

Hawks to play Sydney,Dockers,Geelong iaway in a recurring draw coming off 5 day breaks.

Will Freo have to play them all?

I sincerely hope so. A year without playing Freo in Perth would be good.
