Analysis 2016 AFL Fixture

Will be overseas for the first 3 matches. Has anyone used AFL live on an iphone or ipod?

Things that bring my gears....


WC and Freo have the hardest travel burden in the league. Not much can be one to stop a travelling across the Nullarbor 10 times

But there are some simple things that can be done like managing 6 day breaks etc

One very simple measure is to not start our season on a Sunday, in particular a Sunday afternoon.

At the very least it would reduce at least one 6 day break. A Friday night start could reduce two...

That measure along with away Sunday games leading into the bye followed by a Thursday/Friday game after the bye.

The obvious reason as to why this happened is that considering Hawthorn are playing on the previous Monday they wanted to negate as much as possible whatever 'advantage' West Coast would have from the previous week.

Any word on 2016 Grand Finals dates?

Will be overseas for the first 3 matches. Has anyone used AFL live on an iphone or ipod?

Yep. High quality video on either (assuming you mean ipad, not ipod) - tablet is obviously best for bigger screen. Although I have a feeling that you can also use the live pass to watch games on a computer if you're overseas.

 

[Smeg Head]

While I agree that Sunday afternoon is the worst timeslot, we are always going to have a few scheduled. Id rather use them up on sides like Brisbane. Monday is a public holiday also. Same as WA day, these games dont have the same "hurry home and get to work tomorrow" feel.

Thing is we aren't likely to get less, since people here go regardless and its a perfect slot for those dickheads at foxtel. Look at the new broadcast deal coming in '17.

Yes i had no issues. Internet wasn't even that great.

As long as you purchase your subscription through the AFL website on a PC you can use it on any PC and Android or Apple phone/tablet. Don't purchase through the app Chris_6678 or it'll only work on that device OS.

What a stupid decision to play a game at Joondalup again after all the problems there two years ago.

I don't mind it for the fact i live walking distance to it.

Last time we played a preseason game in Adelaide, Ezy did his knee. We should probably leave him behind just to be safe.

EDIT: Actually, he did his knee against Carlton. I could've sworn someone got injured but it was just another forgettable Ellis injury.

Loving the first preseason game with a Crows-supporting wife and a family of Sturt fans.

Nicoski did his hammy in the 2012 NAB Cup Grand Final. Last game he ever played...

 

[wadistance]

Bring it all on.

I expect to play Sydney @ SCG, sends like forever since we played there.

Poor Sinclair. He gonna get fooked up

I bloody hope we get a couple of games in Sydney this year - havent seen a game for points over here since 2013

That was the night of my 30th. I was wearing my wings as every good boy should and all my Crow mates gave it to me. They then gave it to me over the bar as the tab was running out. Don't remember too much other than Nico doing his hammy and kicking the goal.

 

[Chris_6678]

We play Freo round 3 Saturday night.

We play Freo round 3 Saturday night.

About bloody time they gave another Saturday Night derby. I'm sick of it always being on Sunday.

 

[Suma Magic]

Saturday night derby is awesome.

Hopefully Mackenzie is able to stop their no. 1 forward. Not sure he will have lined up on Tabs before.

 

[ep2018]

Our home game too.

 

[ep2018]

We could be 1-2 after round 3. Then again we were this year also.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

so what are people thinking our double ups for next year look like. We can nigh on guarantee hawks and fremantle. What are people hoping for in the other 3? I would like dogs, adelaide and gold coast.

I thought the AFL recently introduced a system where the top 6, middle 6 and bottom 6 generally play each twice?

 

[Suma Magic]

My guess is Hawks, dockers, port, Richmond and GWS twice.

Think we will play port in Adelaide in round 23.

 

[DickDunn]
