Would it be the greatest build up to a GF in Melbourne for local Melburnians since the early Essendon v Carlton/Collingwood GFs of the early 90s?
Hoping we still spoil that possibility, but if not, the lead up to a Rich v Coll GF in Melbourne by the local media, fanbases etc. would be enormous!
Final 6 would have worked if the top 2 got a bye into the 2nd semi while the other 4 sides sort out who gets to go the prelim to play the loser of the 2nd semi
This should sort you out for about 12 hours on Friday Night/Saturday Morning.

I figured North Qld was a bit too crowded for 2 sides.
At least the Brisbane Bullets are back next season.

With the introduction of the bye week between Round 23 and Week 1 of the Finals, there is a chance that the AFL will stage a Thursday Night Final. The impression seems to be that it will only go ahead if there is a final that takes place outside Victoria.... not sure why, but the mid-season...

Kind of surprised we dont see some element of this during GF telecasts.
I know the ads after a goal have been removed for years now, but would be neat to see something offbeat and clever as well as funny in between the quarters, especially if its a tight nerve testing match for fans.
Something...
Anyone know if Ch 7 are going to be showing the same stale line up of GFs like in year's past?... you know... 66 77 89 etc. or are they going to mix it up a bit?... throw in some non-GFs like they used to do back in the day?
Fremantle v West Coast
- The Western Derby - awesome, the west being won in the east, GF week would be massive, Western Invasion in Melbourne, city renamed "New Perth" for the week, first Non Vic GF since 2006, neutrals would love it... a match to settle the rivalry for a loooong time...
If its West Coast v Sydney/Richmond/North Melbourne, then its a 3:20pm (1:20pm local) start
If its West Coast v Fremantle, then its a 7:20pm (5:20pm local) start
Is that right?
For those of you who are thinking of going to WM 32 in Dallas on April 3rd next year / RAW the next night... does anyone want to arrange a meet up of sorts over the WM weekend, April 1-4 ? Could meet for WM experience/access or whatever its called, go out at night in the DFW area, etc.

6 games today to avoid the 1pm Mother's Day game tomorrow or the unpopular Monday Night Football.
6 games on a Saturday like the old VFL, only that they have staggered starts.
I reckon they should do this whenever there is a Perth game on Saturday Night.
Remove Sunday Twilight games when...
Sydney derby is now the match of the round next week?
Adelaide sides traded places?
5 out of the top 8 are non Vic - AFL to start enquiry to ask "where is vic footy at?"
