Will be interesting to see what Round 19 looks like and which games they might flip. The one positive with holding Daniher was the fact that I thought he could hopefully score well against Gold Coast in the first week of SC finals and be OK as the weakest player of the 22 on field. The campaigner will probably pump out a 50 anyway.

Round 19 Fixture


Friday night

Port Adelaide v Collingwood, 7.10pm (Adelaide Oval)

Saturday

Carlton v North Melbourne, 1.45pm (Marvel Stadium)

Brisbane v Gold Coast Suns, 3.10pm (Gabba)

West Coast Eagles v St Kilda, 4.35pm (Optus Stadium)


Adelaide Crows v Hawthorn, 6.10pm (Adelaide Oval)

Melbourne v Western Bulldogs, 7.25pm (MCG)

Sunday

Sydney Swans v Fremantle, 12.30pm (Metricon Stadium)

Geelong Cats v Richmond, time TBC (MCG)

Essendon v GWS Giants, time TBC (Venue TBC, but likely Metricon Stadium)

Some key notes

– Hawthorn’s game will begin at 5.40pm local time to allow for the club to fly in and out of Adelaide on the same day.

– The Hawks and Pies will need to gain exemptions from the South Australian government before travelling into the state and test negative after they arrive and before the first bounce

– Gold Coast v Brisbane Lions will be hastened from Round 20 to Round 19.

– Geelong v Richmond is the mid-afternoon game on Sunday due to allow for the double header at Metricon Stadium on either side of it. However the start time is still to be confirmed.

— The venue and start time for the Essendon v GWS Giants is still to be confirmed, but the game is likely to be at Metricon Stadium.

My North and South Tassie hubs idea is looking like the best option for the remainer of the season.

My North and South Tassie hubs idea is looking like the best option for the remainer of the season at the moment.

SA has stated anyone leaving and returning to Sth Aust, will have to quarantine for 14 days ......so that's WA out ....don't know the attitude of Tassie and Qld

Unsure why they would overlook WA. Perth has the best venue in the country and no problem getting 60,000 fans to games.

 

[A Bit Dusty]

I say scrap the season now and hand the Premiership to the defending champions

Can't hold 9 matches per round at OS though

The GWS, GC and North games could be held at any ground haha

 

[Nelso]

Surely Gilligan will have to postpone the season now for a few weeks at least.

So lets get this straight.

You move 2 teams in one state which is in lockdown to another state that is in lockdown

Makes no sense whatsoever.

 

[Deliverance]

And the state with the worst covid record.

 

[A Bit Dusty]

And the state with the worst covid record.

We actually have the best record thank you very much clearly top of the ladder

 

[Cuzz09]

Why not fly all 18 teams to tassue or NT and just pump out the season with double headers etc
