Just was thinking.
Would like to play Richmond twice again - it's been a few seasons.
Only want 1 game against Hawthorn - it's not much of a rivalry anyway.
Maybe only 1 game against Essendon too.

I think we're certain to get Port in Adelaide and Freo in Freo.
Time for us to play GC here, so hopefully we get them twice. I think the AFL like seeing a full crowd up there so I think we will travel there for sometime yet.

A home game first round against the WB at the MCG on a saturday night would be nice too.
 
Our 2 Etihad home games against low drawing interstate teams, not the Dogs, Saints or Roos. Maybe GWS & West Coast.

Given the way, the fixture is meant to occur now, with teams broken up into top 6, middle 6 and bottom 6, I think we'll get double up games versus 1 bottom 6 team (carlton), 3 middle 6 teams (guessing Richmond, Essendon & Suns as we play WCE and Adelaide twice this year) and 1 top 6 team likely to be a Victorian team so NM, Geelong or Hawthorn.

We are due to play Lions, Freo and Port away and we always play the Swans away. I think we'll play either the Suns or GWS away for our 5th interstate games. I'm tipping the Suns due to position on the ladder with playing them twice.

No more Sunday games. They suck DB's. Satdee arvo's would be great.

For one, only have the one bye and that bye is mid season and in the form of a split round.

play sydney mid-season again and play richmond twice.
 
Out - playing teams twice before playing other teams once.
This. Rubbish system when we have played Carlton, Essendon and Adelaide twice before playing Port, GWS and Brisbane once.

Also, these Sunday late games are rubbish. OK for watching on TV, but I have no enthusiasm about going to them live
 
Face it, we have no say in this and we'll continue to get used as guinea pigs for silly twilight games and whatever is viable for the afl to make the most money they can out of the big clubs such as ours.

Major requests:

- F**K Sunday football in the bottom with a spiked bat in all forms

Minor requests:

- Richmond twice please. Let's get that rivalry going again
- Hawthorn once or zero times please. Zero would be good
- Geelong twice please. This is a really good modern rivalry that actually ebbs and flows
- Carlton 20 times if possible. Need dem guaranteed wins. Even when we're terrible we beat Carltonwood
- Way more Friday and Saturday nights for us please
