2008 fixture

[eb075]

Does anybody know or heard or read when next year's fixture comes out? I thought it had usually surfaced by now. Typical AFL. Surely it's not hard to get the thing out straight after the previous seaon finishes.

I think it usually comes out in November.

Im praying we get a good draw this year and also that Collingwood for once dont get a dream draw. Those guys have had such a good run with the draw over the last 3 or 4 seasons..

Hopefully we can get the Kangas early on as the buggers have had the wool over us in recent years. If we can come out firing like we did this season i reckon we will get over them

Ist round.
We owe norf, and we owe norf, does that make sense ?

Damn Straight!!!

Pretty sure the last time we knocked them off was in "The Comeback Match" back in 2001.

Play the Kangas once Rnd 1.

Travel 4 times- W.A twice, Adelaide (crows) once & Sydney.

Sounds ok. The last time we had a "dream draw" we ended up finishing 15th.

Try not to read too much in to the whole thing. Depending on which sides are up and down can change the outlook dramatically.

 

[Bombs Away]

What a surprise that we play Sydney in Sydney. Have done so for years and the AFL keeps sending us and collingwood there to help them out. Roos can now shut up about favouritism treatment. A good draw (like what has been said) with no injuries should mean finals footy in 2008

We havent been to the gabba in a while.

we were there early 2006. Gus kicked 6 from memory.

And the GC for the NAB Cup, hopefully we're in Melbourne again, at least we're not going to Dubai

We had the toughest draw in 2007, (Herald Sun ranking), so good to see a easier draw for the coming season.

They changes the rules of this fixture even further.

Now each team doesn't have to play each other by Round 15. Apparently some teams are playing in Round 22, as their first game between each other. I don't like that.
