Analysis 2020 Fixture - Who will we play

[Nathan Detroit]

Collingwood at the G Saturday arvo

This would be too perfect for me. Opening weekend is always a Friday night event for our tipping crew. Hosted by a Pies supporter! That would make this our live match.

 

[Pessimistic]

Melbourne or st kilda. Always leads to a good season

 

[TylerDurden]

Saints v North already leaked.

Would love to play the pies

Friday Night Collingwood v Hawthorn MCG

Doing the maths - we won't be playing any of these teams in R1:

Carlton, Richmond, Saints, North, Geelong

Leaves only Melbourne, Collingwood, Essendon & Doggies from Victoria.

8 Interstate sides vs 4 Melbourne sides, I'd say money is on us heading interstate R1 again.

Saturday Night Essendon v Hawthorn MCG - Revenge for 2017

Would love to return serve on this. They ruined Rough's comeback game.

Maths average is 2-3 all victorian, 2-3 all non victorian and the rest mixed. 50:50 a home game but an away game more likely to be outside melbourne

 

[LRobbo]

Watch it be * at their shitbox stadium and the media narrative will be about Daniher falling back in love with the club. The criminal enterprise will probably release a commemorative T-shirt to mark the occasion again.

 

[HODGEYROAD]

Saints v North already leaked.

Two Victorian clubs no one cares about facing off in Round 1 with a combined total of 5 premierships in 220 years of football.

 

[Cyril says]

GWS in Blacktown or wherever the 25 pts champs want to launch their 2020 premiership campaign.

 

[Soft as malaxos]

Sunday 3:20 anyone?
v Gold Coast
in Townsville
wearing the power rangers number

I’d be pleased with this, no power rangers though.

 

[Hodginator]

Saints and Dees for preseason

 

[Pessimistic]

prolly not R1 then

 

[Millsie69]

What are the lights like at Moorabbin? lol

Rather dark in the trophy cabinet. A single nightlight to illuminate all their achievements.

 

[Cyril says]

Geez this time of year is hard.

 

[mikey127]

Hey guys not confirmed but some talk we have you guys round 1 at the G. Trying to find out if fact or fiction will keep you posted.

 

[Furn2]

Buddy's 301st you mean ?

The 2012 GF doesnt count

 

[JoeHawk]

Just hope we don’t get as many shitty Sunday games, particularly twilight. First half of 2019 was ridiculous. Kids play footy so hardly saw any games.

 

[hawk for 37]

5 Friday night games has been mentioned.

 

[moginie]

I would have thought that they would have a forest of floodlights to illuminate their 27 wooden spoons.

 

[Rushed_Behind]

Don’t normally give 2 hoots about preseason games but will have to take advantage of the game at RSEA and the 11 minute walk to the ground and a wedding in Hobart long weekend may have to just include a small detour to Launceston.

Edit: someone please get the giggle and hoot theme song out of my head.

 

[HODGEYROAD]

5 Friday night games has been mentioned.

That would be a very pleasant surprise given we finished 9th on the ladder, expecting something more like 2 friday night games.

 

[Agent Smith]

It was meant for Carlton but accidentally came to us instead.

As a consequence, Carlton now find themselves with our draw, which isn't too bad as long as they like Sunday twilight games... every week.

 

[Pessimistic]

What year did we get every other finalist in the first seven weeks? Won most of them I remember
