Why not Wednesday? It gives more clear air from one match to the next.
I pretty much explained it in my post.
If you want clear air, take it. They aren't obligations.
Or we could be a bit more creative and try some new things.
Turn Tuesday into selection day. It may engender some further interest into the actual teams. Make the skippers think a bit more about it and allow the posters to have a bit of banter around the teams and changes. Then post the match thread Tuesday night or Wednesday.

2 months no booze for me mateMate if the criteria was "suitably lubricated" you could put yours up at 9.30am Monday.
Only The Filth Wizard could take a thread about match threads and make it all about himself.Or we could put threads back to Tuesdays where they were supposed to be.
It's all nice ideas but they won't leave this thread. The hard memories of the ridicule I copped for making Monday free for things like media still cuts like a knife.

They call me Mr Match Thread.
I don't believe you gifThey call me Mr Match Thread.
I vote no. Having the entire week encourages a wider range of participation as some people aren't available on certain days, and the match threads going up is something to look forward to on Monday (the worst day of the week for many). Having a shorter match thread is fine, but make it Sunday to Thursday or something (mix it up each week so every day of the week isn't excluded). Besides Sunday to Thursday wouldn't clash as much with the footy/weekend. Personally I'd prefer keeping the status quo (of week long match threads) or having multiple teams in a thread (like Tittybong)Over the past few seasons this has continued to creep in the wrong direction and it is time to restructure the SFA week. We need to push the posting of the match threads to Wednesday. Putting them up on a Monday just turns it into a very long winded exercise. It means we have 7 days of match thread "banter" and it is far too much to fill.
Tuesdays pls.
Monday for fallout, Tuesday morning for threads.
People know you can schedule threads right? Or is that a mod thing?

Well there's only one answer to this. Start match threads on Sunday.Threads used to go up on Mondays until I changed it to Tuesdays when admin. They've been progressively sneaking back to Monday nights. It should be Tuesday, certainly not Wednesday. You won't see less posting, you'll just see stupider posting from the stat whores.
I suggested this earlier if it’s shorter threads that are sought after rather than banishing Monday /TuesdayWell there's only one answer to this. Start match threads on Sunday.
Wednesday to Tuesday wouldn’t be badAlso did a poll and Wednesday came up trumps![]()
Do you see this when you go to "Post thread"?

A game posted on a Thursday is less likely to clash with the footy than a Sunday afternoon one
Clashes with the footy prevent being able to follow the match posting live , and the fun /banter that goes along with thatWhat does a two hour game of AFL have to do with any of this?
There's an image.That is just blank for me. I see nothing in your post?
