News 2015 Hawthorn Fixture (released 30 October 2014)

[rdhopkins2]

I can't find an official announcement for the 2015 AFL Fixture release date. However, I'm expecting this to be around 31st October. The Cricket World Cup has created hassles for the AFL.

Edit:- AFL FIXTURE RELEASE DATE IS 30th OCTOBER!

Bookmark the GF rematch to be played in Sydney

Its the AFL after all

 

[MinerBoy]

We play this years top 4 teams 5 times each and all away.

Still b2b2b

 

[MightyHawks]

We'll play return matches against
Geelong
Sydney
Port
Fremantle
&
West Coast

 

[Whirling Dervish]

We will finally play away in Brisbane.

 

[1989]

The AFL will find a way to make us play Hawthorn twice.

 

[Stratton24]

The AFL will find a way to make us play Hawthorn twice.

The Afl might realise a hard draw helps win the gf and make us play the nibsys twice!

 

[davoss]

We play Geelong, Sydney and Fremantle away on a continuous loop of 6 day breaks

Hard start and middle to the season then all the easier teams at the end.

 

[MightyHawks]

Round 22 Sunday interstate v West Coast and Round 23 interstate v Brisbane

 

[Arkadia]

back to back interstate trips and 5 day break between rounds, it is only fair to the rest of the comp

 

[HODGEYROAD]

We'll play return matches against
Geelong
Sydney
Port
Fremantle
&
West Coast

We would have to get more than 1 match vs a Victorian side

 

[MightyHawks]

We would have to get more than 1 match vs a Victorian side

The minimum is 2 I hear... But we have been the victim of an exception before

I think cats swans and port are locks and we aren't supposed to play any more than 3 of the other top 6 sides twice.
If they play by the "rules" they'll give us the most likely middle 6 and bottom 6 sides to improve.z

 

[Dewnior]

If you think we were bent over the last 2 seasons you ain't seen nothing yet

 

[cam975]

Reading Leigh Matthews' book he definitely mentioned how the afl weren't too keen on the Lions making the grand final so many times in a row and tried to make it difficult for them especially when they made the fourth, so I guess we can't expect too many favours next year (not that we got any this year!)

 

[Gene Simmons]

We'll play return matches against
Geelong
Sydney
Port
Fremantle
&
West Coast

Yep.. and the return matches against Sydney will be played at SCG & ANZ Stadium

 

[HODGEYROAD]

Who cares what our fixture is, as we have shown if our hunger remains we are coming top 4 Regardless and the AFL can stick it.

 

[spudmaster]

We play Geelong on the Easter Monday in round 1, so Sydney is locked in for round 4 up there on the Friday night you would assume. West Coast and Freo both in Perth in rounds 2 and 3 on the Sunday and Saturday respectively would also seem likely.

 

[HawkMongrel]

We'll play Essendon at Docklands again.

 

[Jtree]

The Afl might realise a hard draw helps win the gf and make us play the nibsys twice!

These 'hard' draws have done nothing but galvanise and train this terrific squad... Shhhh.... Don't tell the AFL...

 

[grizzlym]

We play a home game in Moscow, followed 6 days later with a game on the kitty litter at ANZ stadium.

The MCG, even in its current state, is still in better condition than that dump! So is whatever ground we're playing on in Moscow.

exactly. it's so boring to hear people whinge about the draw year after year

Yeah, but a 26 hour flight each way on Aeroflot is gunna really test us.

 

[BobHawk]

Yeah, but a 26 hour flight each way on Aeroflot is gunna really test us.

Mmmm. That would mean chicken kiev for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Also need to plan for the 32 hour layover in Tashkent.
