Assuming Crows have requested this as an easy kill...Do we have no say in the fact we have already faced an Adelaide club over this weekend ????
No real rationale for the decision provided in the article, which I would post but am having trouble doing without the subscription coming through. It’s in the HUN.
 
How does this happen? We play Sydney in Sydney in round zero and now Adelaide in Adelaide for gather round? What is the club doing when other clubs get to dictate fixtures.
After the season we’ve just had, I find it interesting they still see us as a drawcard. Maybe they have an eye on us as potential wildcard round competitors?
 
Can we question why Carlton are for the second time getting an extra away game compared to 16 other clubs in Gather Round? Surely it's just common sense to have everyone do it once before teams start getting it twice.

Because the AFL are run by morons who hate our club.

Third year of Round 0 and we’ve played in it twice.

Fourth year of Gather Round and next year will be the second time we’ve played a SA club.

Lovely how the AFL have sneakily given us two extra away games thanks to their stupid Round 0/Gather rounds.

We pull a decent crowd with our support, strange not to let the Crows play another team with a capacity crowd and get our game as another with some high gate numbers.

Why would we agree to that when we have the second highest attendances?
Takes time to claw back MCG games from.the Ian Collins deal.

This is a stepping stone to mostly MCG games.

We are pretty much guaranteed to fill Marvel. Which the AFL owns.

If we have fewer games there someone else has to take up the slack (according to the AFL).
 
Who at St Kilda is sleeping with the AFL?

Whinge about father/sons, nek minute.

OR v Pies as a home game at the G. Us last year at the G as their home game. They must owe the AFL a ton of $$$
Did you see the Saints fixture to start this year?

R1 - Adelaide in Adelaide
R2 - Cats at Marvel
R3 - Richmond at Marvel
R4 - Suns in GC
R5 - Giants in Adelaide

That is horrid.

Followed by Bulldogs, Lions, Dockers......us.
 
I think the AFL will be a bit reluctant with our fixture because of the way we finished the year. 24k vs GC 25k vs Port, 41k vs Bombers at the G. They aren't the numbers of a juggernaut club.

Just so happens that the St Kilda Pres's brother Paul is an AFL Commissioner.

Normally I’d be filthy with this. Remember we had an ‘easy’ draw this year. How did that go for us?

But still, **** the AFL. Hope we stick it right up them.
