I agree these 2 clubs most deserve itTwo teams who don't have their own marquee match, which I think boils down to North and the Doggies.

Agree, nothing's ever a guarantee just all options thoughdeserve it ? .... more like put up or get off the pot !! It would be the height of stupidity to lock in any 2 clubs, the FIXture is so compromised by locked in games without making it worse.
Of course will be special, not any normal Friday gameWhy does it matter? And since when does it have to be an annual thing that only 2 teams play it? Why not just make it a rotating event, i.e. just a normal friday night game?
Nothing special about the day anyway...
Doubtful only reason clubs have lobbied longer than the Suns but could be in contention if continue play exciting footballA blockbuster on the gold coast
If you had 2 games going, one in Vic, one interstate who would you have playing in each ?I would obviously hope that the doggies got an opportunity with a game like this, but I don't see any reason why it needs to be the same teams every year. Start with Dogs v North maybe, see how it goes and then rotate around clubs who don't get loads of prime slots already.
I think having two games will work well - one afternoon and one evening, maybe one with Vic clubs and the other an interstate derby.
Basically, I'm just glad there will be footy on and that there's a decent chance the Doggies will play in a prime slot for once.

Highly doubt have a derby on Good Friday interstate... So much, as mentioned its already big and a full house, Good Friday won't make the occasion bigger for that occasion when those teams face off... I'd like to see Swans vs Suns if excitement is a factor a local derby in Vic between 2 small clubsI personally would have Doggies v NM and either Freo v WC or Port v Adelaide - at least in year 1. Then see how we go.
Who says they have to? Why does it have to be about the RCH?Doubt WA or SA will host event if for Melbourne charity as in RCH appeal...
You'd think if having a game on a significant religious holiday it should involve a charitable component to it. Or else just be any other Friday night game but it has meaning to it hence why some clubs put their hands up will donate major earnings to the RCHWho says they have to? Why does it have to be about the RCH?
He did say 'Teams are ones that at one stage or another been linked to event', however did not say where. The Bendigo Chronicle?You've missed over half the league in that poll?
Fwiw, I think Freo vs West Coast
That would be entertaining game to watch, if AFL decide 2 games that should be considered as wellPort v Swans
I'd have two games. North and the Dogs in Melbourne and Suns and GWS on the Gold Coast. The latter will have amazing clashes in three or four years time when they are both up the top of the ladderA blockbuster on the gold coast
That is very good point you have made, best one so farI'd have two games. North and the Dogs in Melbourne and Suns and GWS on the Gold Coast. The latter will have amazing clashes in three or four years time when they are both up the top of the ladder
Not everyone is religious, so to most Australians these days it is just another Friday, albiet a public holiday. The whole RCH thing is a very Victorian centric way to think about it. The RCH makes plenty of money from the appeal without this game. I think we should leave religion & charity out of it.You'd think if having a game on a significant religious holiday it should involve a charitable component to it.

I understand what your saying and agree to some extent however you have to look at it the way AFL will try set it up, or else they will be seen as taking TV time off channel 7 Good Friday appeal, looks better if there contributing as well to the religious populationNot everyone is religious, so to most Australians these days it is just another Friday, albiet a public holiday.
