We get Freo after a 6 day break, they get 5 days. Our previous game is day, theirs is night. Reckon that's a nice little advantage Andy Russell will be happy with. Could be a very important game for us too. Noice!I think this can warrant it's own thread given how much it will impact this season.
Bring on the rotation policies: Cats, Pies among hardest hit in fixture crunch
Geelong is set to be one of several clubs forced to take on a rotation policy in the next block of fixtureswww.afl.com.au
We have 1 x 5 day break, 1 x 10 day break (bye) & 1 x 6 day break from rounds 9-12. Not bad. With North/Hawks/WC/Freo let's hope we can go 3-1 out of that block.
Geelong hit hard with 2 x 4 day breaks and 2 x 5 day breaks...that's seriously rough all back-to-back.
WC are well poised...2 x 6 day breaks, a bye & 1 x 7 day break...all games at Optus with crowds now let in so they get a proper home ground advantage.
The other factor to consider is the advantages a team would have playing a team when they have a short break...eg in rd 12 Port play Geelong off a 6 day break while Geelong only get 4 days.
