Other than the games already announced we'll play the Cats in Geelong - its a given

 

[Punts]

Pretty good draw

No Geelong game

Only 6 Melbourne games

 

[Chaisa]

Far fewer Thursday/Friday night games this time around, which is good for attendances.

Double-ups not super easy but happy we're playing Carlton and Gold Coast twice.

 

[Wolftone]

Again too many night games. We have as fans, over 70% in the surveys said they preferred Saturday and Sunday day or Twilight games, asked for more day games than night games. Yet we always get more night games even at the bottom end of the ladder.

The AFL does not listen and last year the fans voted by just not attending night games. Night game attendances in Sydney were down by an average of 25%. Doesn't that tell thrm something?

[Artygunner]

It’s a fair draw considering our last two years. Expected to lose a lot of the Friday night / twilight Saturday games.

Would have liked to have had Adelaide twice but can’t complain with Essendon, Hawks, Carlton, GCS, GWS

 

[Theprofessional]

Fraction more night games than I'd like but it looks like a pretty friendly draw (which obviously came as a result of our poor season).

Me too - would of loved an extra couple of day/twilight games, but 4 is ok (at least of the 6 confirmed night home games, only 3 are Thu/Fri night, which are simply not doable for me).

But draw is friendly enough in terms of our opponents. If we improve as a playing group by a reasonable amount through natural development of our players, its kind enough that we could challenge for the 8 imho.

No geelong trip

 

[mcs095]

No geelong trip

I had actually decided this year I would make the trip down to go to Shitdinia park too. Ah well, will have to wait for next year.

 

[MF]

No geelong trip

About time.

 

[Olian]

Fair draw would have preferred another day game rather than Saturday night.
Thursday night football is the graveyard shift for the Swans with games poorly attended although they are dragging the Pies up so it may help.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

We surely can't be unhappy.

Few too many night games though, not sure why our round 2 game is Friday night lol

 

[The King!]

I think that’s a nice draw nothing too bad in it

Seems a fair mix

Maybe more day games ideally but oh well

 

[Wayne Swan]

No geelong trip

First time in a decade, pencil it in next year, just an abberation on the VFL's part!

It probably rates well on TV. Gotta get those ads in

We surely can't be unhappy.

Wait for the regulars to stop by

not sure why our round 2 game is Friday night

It's against the Daniher Bombers. Need to show Sydney why selling half the team, our assests and the SCG was worth it to get a player who might not even be fit to play

 

[Ticky009]

Was hoping to tick Cattery of the ground visit bucket list this year. Oh well. Might do the Demons game again then.

 

[Wolftone]

12 games in Sydney
6 in Melbourne
2 in Brisbane/Gold Coast
1 in Perth
1 in Adelaide

1 on Thursday night
2 on Friday night
7 on Saturday/Sunday afternoon
5 on Saturday/Sunday twilight
6 on Saturday night
1 TBD

But only 4 home games are day games, including one twilight. No different to last year. Still 6 night home games when most fans voted for more day and twilight games than night.
