Well, we did finish top six, so will get the toughest tier of double-ups, plus of course the Crows who are scary. Nowhere to hide next year, except if your name is Ken Hinkley.

Tough draw the last two years and you'd expect a tough one next year. Plus our AFLW team got screwed this season too. Not getting any favours from the AFL lately.

Predicted double ups if we are to get a hard fixture again:

Top 6: Collingwood, Brisbane
Middle 6: Adelaide, Geelong
Bottom 6: Richmond, Fremantle

I say Richmond because they might have the dead cat bounce in Yze’s first year, and Freo because that will just about guarantee a loss in Perth.
 
You'd expect we'd be wanting round 2 at home for Travis's 350.
I feel like either the AFL will try and make a big deal of this with something like Port vs Geelong at home on a Saturday night with a whole bunch of lead in stories about how Geelong tried to poach him and what a true hero he is for staying with the battler club

or

it'll be Port v Suns in a graveyard slot with the mention of the games buried between 2 Victorian blokes playing their 50th games
 
Wasn't the suggestion that the opening games in NSW (and maybe QLD) would be stand-alone but then those teams would play again the next weekend as well?

I can't see any scenario where Port gets to host the first Friday night game of the season anyway
 
What the * is the point of making Round 1 a split round?
Especially considering the season is already a week longer with Gather Round.

Didn’t these precious players wanted less working weeks not more?
