2018 Fixture wish list

[Dylan12]

Also, like most, preferably no Sunday twilight games, particularly in Melbourne.

Further to 3KZ is Football post, the more games at the MCG the better; just a great venue to watch the footy, plus I’m not a big fan of Docklands.

 

[Lace Out]

Richmond X 2 please

 

[Daniels Riches]

My simple is wish as it is every year is a minimum of six games in Melbourne (not including Geelong or Tasmania (which seem to occasionally get included as "Melbourne" games)).

I was just about to post the same thing. I would like a minimum of 6 games in Melbourne with 3 at the MCG (Melbourne, Richmond, Collingwood) and 3 at Etihad (Carlton, North Melbourne and St.Kilda). St.Kilda and Melbourne would have to be due for a trip to the Gabba and it would be great to play Carlton and Collingwood twice. I don't mind travelling to Tassie to play Hawthorn, but they are also due for a game at the Gabba I would have thought.

This is basically my only wish. More games in Melbourne for the old Fiztroy supporters!

Anyone know when the 2018 fixture will be released? Was about a week after trade period last year.

Usually last Thursday in October

NRL has released their fixture so no reason now why Lions games should be competing with Broncos games for the "fickle" fan base who swap & change at a whim.

 

[Crawb]

Has the NRL ever released their fixture before the AFL? Interesting.

Can only be good for the northern clubs - should be no major clashes hopefully.

NRL used to be driven by the broadcasters who basically ran the schedule for TV numbers. This is the first year they haven't.

 

[Bucking Beads]

Probably not going to happen next season but I'd like a Friday Night QClash. I'd also like at least 1 Friday night game per year at the Gabba.

 

[Dalions]

2 games against
CARLTON
GOLD COAST
HAWKS
BULLDOGS and
ADELAIDE

 

[M Malice]

As many Saturday twilight games at the Gabba as possible please and I would also like us to play the Crows in Adelaide, I've been meaning to make my first trip to Adelaide Oval for a couple of years, next season it is happening.

 

[musclehead22]

- Friday Night game with Hawthorn.
- Lots of Saturday Night games

31st October it's released

Round 1 Adelaide v Melbourne at the Adelaide oval

Round 1 The Gabba Brisbane v Adelaide.

With Mitch Robinson lining up on Tom Rockliff in the center square for the first bounce, then when he floats forward switch over to Nick Robertson.

 

[Nunez]

I'd love to see us take on the Hawks at the Gabba round 1. Would be a money draw both TV wise and attendance wise. Would back our boys to win that bout as well.

 

[Big Sauce 21]

Bombers want hawks. Vfl run so we'll probably get gws or freo

How do Port and Adelaide get to decide who he plays for each week - maybe whoever has a home game and make sure they have two showdowns and he can play for one each? Do they split his salary under both caps or does one side kind of pay a stud fee of some sort when playing for the other one.

Would be hard for him to keep both sides intellectual property from the others as well.

Would they be buying him a harlequin suit - Port right leg and left arm, Crown left leg and right arm and the body quarters with Port top right and bottom left and Crows top left and bottom right ... actually fitting both sets of sponsors on could be interesting too ...

2008 I remember NRL released there draw before the end of the season however back then they just released the games for each round and not the times and days

 

[HereIam86]

Lions vs Hawks at The Gabba.

 

[HereIam86]

maybe they will give us slightly more home games so they don't have too many at the Gabba

I think the Suns are going to play some games in North Queensland.

 

[mikey127]

Lions vs Hawks at The Gabba.

I reckon twice Gabba and the G

OOPS!

Hodgey to go the biff and take out Gunston, Rioli and Roughhead.

Let off with a $1500 fine for being a good bloke

 

[baaaall!]

Suns are set to play 2 home games at the Gabba, one of which is rumoured to be part of a double header with one of our games.
