Norf easy draw too considering they made the 8.
Double up games are not the hardest

Probably got 2 of the worst double ups you can get from bottom 6. GC injury dependent though.

 

[AlorraVex]

Two trips to SA and two trips to QLD, one trips to WA and one trip to NSW. A bit worse than last year.

Hopefully, we can get back to our strong away form.

lolnorf as an away game AGAIN?! When was the last time we played them at the G in the H&A season?

Edit: realised WCE is at home.

Will make finals

 

[DontArgue4]

Not too bad, no fridays is a bit of a joke but to be expected

Double ups are ok, Freo will be decent so that doesnt really count as an easy one

 

[Blinky_bill]

As a Brisbane local I'm stoked - finally we get 2 games in SE QLD.
Considering we got none this year I'm happy

- Geelong at Simonds Stadium
- Arguably one of the worst of the middle 6 teams to have twice in St Kilda.
- A possibly pseudo-bottom 6 Fremantle twice
- GWS twice (probably the worst to have twice out of the top 6 as it appears)
- North Melbourne at Etihad Stadium
- Bulldogs at Etihad Stadium
- Adelaide and Port Adelaide at AO
- Gold Coast at Metricon Stadium

How is this a "dream" draw?

I am not really complaining about the draw (it isn't that bad) but the Herald Sun made it look like we had a really easy draw a couple of days ago so expected a softer draw than that (eg. not go to Adelaide Oval at all instead of twice). Oh well, if we don't make the 8 with this draw then it is time to reset I think.

 

[JackNah_8]

Good draw but I am surprised we didnt at least get one Friday night match

 

[Tigerbob68]

Two trips to SA, two trips to QLD, two trips to WA, one trip to NSW. Brutal.

Hopefully we can get back to our strong away form.

R17 2012. 4 point loss as part of the 3 weeks in a row we lost by under a goal

No trip to tassie at least, we've sucked down there. Obligatory home game at Etihad too, boo.

 

[ldamico]

f*** off GWS twice

No trip to Tassie which is a bonus

 

[sante]

Adelaide twice is good for me.


Geelong at SS is annoying. Of course we play Dogs and Roos at Etihad.

 

[sante]

But impossible to know if it's a good draw or not.

 

[Tiges1229]

lol dream draw my arse.

 

[Lsta062]

We don't have Adelaide twice from the top 6. We have GWS twice!

 

[Capitano_Cotch]

Only 11 games at the G is a joke though.
Brisbane at Etihad?
Why. Why?

 

[Lsta062]

At the very least we don't play GWS in Canberra and we don't go to Tasmania.

 

[DrMike]

I can't see us losing a game

 

[GoTigers2015]

Not a bad draw playing Carlton, Brisbane, StKilda and Freo twice. Chance to make the eight.

[GoTigers2015]

I can't see us losing a game

23 wins (the bye counts as a win)

 

[DontArgue4]

Gotta take advantage of the first 4 out of 5 being at the G and the other being our home away from home at the Gabba

 

[Lsta062]

Only 11 games at the G is a joke though.
Brisbane at Etihad?
Why. Why?

Oh well, beats playing North Melbourne at Etihad Stadium for our home game

 

[French Tiger]

Unfortunately the draw will never be fair or even. Don't mind no Friday nights as if we lose it's a bad to start to the weekend lol. 6 interstate trips as well as playing at Geelong isn't flash. If we are playing well the draw handles itself , if we are playing bad it doesn't really matter who you play
