Round 10 fixture should be announced first thing Monday, and it should look like this:

Friday
6.30pm AEDT: Geel v Syd (GMHBA Stadium)
7.30pm AEST: BL v Coll (Metricon Stadium)

Saturday
1.10pm AEDT: StK v Adel (RSEA Park)
3.10pm AEDT: NM v Rich (Arden Street Oval)
5.10pm AEDT: Melb v WCE (Casey Fields)
7.10pm AEDT: Carl v WB (Ikon Park)

Sunday
1.10pm AEDT: GWS v GC (Henson Park)
2.40pm ACDT: PA v Ess (Alberton Oval)
2.10pm AWST: Frem v Haw (Fremantle Oval)

HOWEVER, I think 4 games at 4 different Melbourne venues on the same day might be logistically unfeasible. If so, the NM game could be moved to Ikon Park. Or the BL game gets swapped with the Carl game (but then the Friday games would have to move earlier to like 5.30pm & 7.30pm AEDT).

The important thing is to have the 8 most likely finalists all playing on Saturday or earlier, to minimise possible problems of six-day breaks heading into the first week of finals.
 
I'm going to go out on a limb and say "8.10pm AEST" for the Brisbane game is a typo, and it should be "7.10pm AEST".

Carlton getting another early start on Friday night is kinda messed up. But the important thing is at least 2 finalists will be playing their R10 game on the Sunday, which unnecessarily increases the possible problems of six-day breaks.

Also, the R9 Friday night games have been pushed forward by 50 minutes, per this tweet:
