Face value it looks like a little bit tougher than I wanted. Double ups against Footscray and Collingwood should be tough, but we should get 4 wins out of Geelong and Richmond. Away games we should be targeting as probable wins are against Sandy, Werribee, Coburg, Richmond and North Ballarat. Confident with most of our home games.

Italicised are potential double headers or VFL-Tanked-AFL games. With the interstate games I meant we could watch the VFL then head to a pub to watch the AFL.

Really keen to get to the Arden Street Fixture.

Looks like another trip to North Ballarat for me in 2017.

Interesting we are playing Port Melbourne at Frankston May 6. With Frankston not in the comp in 2017 it must be an attempt to keep the locals involved. Fat chance of getting them to a neutral game. Suits me fine, given I live within walking distance.

Why no tigers v bombers pre Dreamtime game?
I enjoyed the concept of watching the vfl boys then walking to the G
