News 2018 Fixture announced

[saint66au]

Now that Trade Eternity is out of the way...next talking point is the fixture for 2018

Anyone heard any leaks or rumours??

 

[Sab22]

Give us 2016 fixture please, I beg _/\_

 

[Brains Trust66]

I bet we play everyone interstate again . Another hard draw for us is on the cards .

 

[chris_h_11]

The teams we're likely to play twice are.....

Bombers, Port, Melbourne, Dogs, and Hawthorn.

You would argue that all of those sides will be better than they were in 2017, while we've lost an all-timer and are going to the draft.

We'll be lucky to crack 35k members this year....

No lucky to get 15k. Oh woe is us [emoji106]

 

[JG22]

I wonder how the retirement of Roo, Joey will impact membership. Ultimately the club is bigger but no doubt Roo would still have been the most popular player according to fans even last year.

Ultimately form especially early will gave greatest impact but its viable we don't hit 40k again.

Got a bad feeling we'll either get Melbourne or Essendon Round 1, and we don't want to start the year with a loss.

Other games we already know will be locked in:

Carlton v Richmond
Bulldogs v Collingwood
Geelong v Hawthorn

 

[Keg on legs]

I'm gonna go a left field prediction and say that we will play Port Adelaide in Adelaide. I know, out there, right?

Seriously though, the fixture is so important to our chances next year. There's really no sense in predicting if we will or won't make finals until we see the draw.

 

[Bushy70]

I quite like round 1 v Melb. It's worked well in recent years and both teams in a similar phase in their development - so it's a good match. The other thing is both teams supporters are long suffering and chasing that elusive flag!

Collingwood have requested Melbourne.

I wouldn't mind playing Hawthorn.

Reckon Eagles, Bulldogs will be in the mix though.

We will flog both of those overrated campaigners.

 

[STK2020]

Maybe 1 friday night game if we are lucky.
Plenty of shitty Sunday late arvo starts .

Or worse Port

 

[BrutThough]

I cant wait to play in Adelaide twice again next year.

 

[CALL ME SNAKE]

Fear nothing.
Give us your worse you Mofos.

 

[bird_man]

When was the last time we played an Adelaide team in Melbourne?

 

[JG22]

When was the last time we played an Adelaide team in Melbourne?

Got shat on early 2014 against adelaide at etihad

 

[CALL ME SNAKE]

When was the last time we played an Adelaide team in Melbourne?

I remember playing the Crows at the G in 97.
The experience wasn't pleasant

 

[Sainttony]

Fair chance we will get GWS in Canberra, bloody hard to beat there.

Hope we get Norf. Can you imagine the banter between the two clubs in the lead up KellyMartin Round 1 Cup!

 

[st_trav_ofWA]

i dont get the pessimistic veiw for 2018 in all honesty ... we had the fixtrue from hell this year and we were only a game and % out of the 8 ... the two big retirments didnt register 10 ten b&f placings so they were not the things to keep us in the race until the last round ...
we actually play an attractive brand of footy thats entertaining to watch so i dont reckon we get punished for finishing just out of the 8 ..
Essendon WCE and Port should all expect a harder draw as would Richmond as the premiers.
with the likes of Bris GC North and Freo at the foot of the ladder all not renouned crowd pullers they will get the majority of the Sunday twilight games .. im thinking we will get a fairer draw and possibly more saturday night games in 2018

 

[BangersAndMash]

Maybe 1 friday night game if we are lucky.

We performed OK for Friday nights - 2 W from 4 games

Problem is when we lost this year we got FLOGGED

I've blocked it from my mind using Anthony Robbins, drugs and alcohol and pr0n.

Not necessarily in that order.

But our floggings (around 50/ 60 pts) were an improvement on the previous season's floggings ( 80 and 100 pts) so we are, at least, heading in the right direction.

We also provided a few floggings of our own....Hawthorn and the Premiers by 60-70 points, don't forget!

How's that for glass half full?
