Did you want more Friday Night Games?

Double Up?

6 day breaks?

Boomer's 400th?
 
Only 2 Fridays both against *ess is a bit weird. Offset by the 7 Saturday nights, which is itself in turn offset by BT.

The 2 double-ups from the top 6 are about as good as we could have wished for.

No short breaks around interstate trips is good.

Boomer unlikely to play #400 in Melbourne is a bugger.

Seems commercially OK.

3 Hobart games was inevitable, don't mind the Richmond one as I'll probably go and the joint will go off.

B+

Ticks for the opponents and the Saturday nights

Crosses for the Friday nights, boomers 400th and 5 consecutive weeks without a Melb home game.

Overall a B for mine.

A for me.

Easiest return games for a top 4 team.

Love Sat night games, especially at home.

Rapt for the Hobart members getting Richmond, and we still get to play them at ES.

Plenty of FTA coverage.

19-3 here we come. Pen it in.
 
Don't think you can count the Hobart games.

Most Vic teams get 5. A couple 6 and a couple 4 so we're sitting right in the average.

Yeah, i read the article from the website which made it sound like 8 interstate games plus hobart games, it is just 5+3 which isn't bad.
 
I like it, boomer will be rested to play 400 in melbourne bookmark it.....
It sucks that he'll need to be rested for 3 games for it to be a home game, but an Etihad Stadium game vs Carlton wouldn't be so bad.

nine of our first 11 on FTA. That's huge IMO.

Friday nights maybe cool and all, but for the majority of our fans I think Saturday night is better.

A huge chance of 16-19 wins.

Can't wait for the Sydney clash here!

Will be heading across for the tigers match. ( any floors available?) :p

We've done ok, * twice on Friday night? The AFL is clearly trolling them.

B for me, it's not a bad draw, so much for earning Friday night games AFL full of s**t, Boomer playing 400 in Brisbane, what dick came up with that it's not like you play 400 every day should be at home.

Very hard start to the year, but then it gets a lot easier. Actually hope Boomer gets suspended for 1 game so he can play his 400th in Melbourne, the fixture shouldn't have caused this problem though. 2 Friday night games is a bummer but we have plenty of free to air games which is great.
Gave it a B, probably could have got a B+.
