Richmomd v Carlton must go.

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

Not Sydney again!!

 

[gaelictiogar]

but everyone knows letting the Tigers have the opening game is boring because they are always sh1t !

Why let the Tiges start the season cos they are always rubbish and never win anything. Why can't we have the premiers instead?

 

[Bomberboyokay]

Richmond can open the season. Carlton should be nowhere ******* near it.

While you are right its OK. We'll carry them on our back as we usually do. Someone has to !!!!

90,000 crowd. 75,000 Tiges........watch them bite.

On SM-G925I using BigFooty.com mobile app

Come out and say it Lico.....you want the Mighty Tiger but are bored to distraction but the Blues.

I know I know but they'd sulk and cry and we better let them play us just to be nice.

We'll let you have it. Premiership hang over and all. But our record against gws is pretty good.

Wtf was that?

 

[LeverPuller]

Collingwood wants to play Melbourne Round 1.

 

[Howard Littlejohn]

I expect the AFL will go with something like this:
Carlton v Richmond - Thursday night, MCG

Collingwood v Adelaide - Friday night, MCG

Hawthorn v Fremantle - Saturday, MCG
Western Bulldogs v Gold Coast - Saturday twilight, Docklands
Brisbane v Greater Western Sydney - Saturday night, Gabba
West Coast v Essendon - Saturday night, Perth Stadium

Sydney v Geelong - Sunday early, SCG
Port Adelaide v Melbourne - Sunday, Adelaide Oval
St Kilda v North Melbourne - Sunday shitcan, Docklands




After adjusting a formula that I use for ground double-ups, ensuring one game in each of NSW,Qld, SA, WA, etc

Geelong v Greater Western Sydney - Friday night, Kardinia Park (7 nationally) : Kardinia Park (GWS should host but their ground will be unavailable due to the Easter Show, and a season opener at Manuka or any secondary venue seems a bit wrong)

Richmond v Adelaide - Saturday, MCG (7 nationally)
Western Bulldogs v St Kilda - Saturday, Docklands
Fremantle v Collingwood - Perth Stadium (7 WA)
Sydney v West Coast - Saturday night, SCG (7 Vic,SA,WA,NSW)
Brisbane v North Melbourne - Sunday, Gabba (7 Qld)

Melbourne v Hawthorn - Sunday, MCG
Port Adelaide v Essendon - Sunday, Adelaide Oval (7 Vic,SA,WA,NSW)
Carlton v Gold Coast - Shitcan, Docklands (7 Qld)

100 point win to us it is then

 

[PAFC_1870]

Why wouldn't they have a derby first up to open the new oval? Did that for the redevelopment of Adelaide Oval....

 

[juss]

First game should be GF rematch. Every year.

Even before we were ever a GF chance, I have always advocated for this. Start up where you left off with the ultimate grudge match.

 

[damochandler]

I reckon they’ll keep the traditional start to the year. But give Carlton the home game. They’ll have Richmond v Adelaide in rd2

 

[FISTO]

Good guess m8 but Collingwood don't play interstate

 

[schmuttt]

Would love the Bombers at the mcg in a home game for us, it will have been 8 years since we last played them in a home game.

Thursday - Richmond Vs Carlton MCG

Friday - West Coast Vs Essendon Perth Stadium

Saturday 2.10pm - Collingwood Vs Melbourne MCG

Saturday 4.45pm - Sydney Vs Adelaide SCG

Saturday 6.25pm - Brisbane Vs Geelong GABBA

Saturday 7.25pm - Port Adelaide Vs Hawthorn

Sunday 1.10pm GWS Vs North Melbourne Spotless Stadium

Sunday 3.20pm St Kilda Vs Bulldogs Etihad

Sunday 4.10pm Gold Coast vs Fremantle Metricon (or Gabba?)

That would be great first up, but I think we're playing you guys round 6 to minimise the issue of the ANZAC game falling midweek.

Hopefully we finally play you twice though

Melbourne are odds-on to get Collingwood and St Kilda twice IMO.
