Hinkley Life Membership Round, featuring an i'll be here forever guernsey. I feel like Alyx could design one of these so that we can all have it scorched into our retina.

That's west coasts double ups. Doggies play Geelong Cats, GWS Giants, Hawthorn, Melbourne, Sydney Swans
I like the draw. We will know where we stand come finals time
After playing Collingwood in Melbourne twice last season the afl have rewarded us by letting us play them in Melbourne again in our only match up.
Have they even played us at adelaide oval yet?

FMD what a pack or arseholes. How many other times outside the Covid Footy frenzy stuff where they had to squeeze games together to dodge virus have they had a double header on Friday night?? Maybe the odd Friday ANZAC day where you have the arvo game, then a twilight game then the Freo's Len Hall tribute game starting around 8pm WA time.

The fixture algorithm just fixtures based on weightings. One of those is "minimize travel of victorian teams" the second is "maximize timeslots for victorian teams" and the last one is "ensure port plays in all the backwaters'

Surprise, surprise, surprise, the top 4 sides of 2021 get the toughest FIXture based on ladder position, along with a couple of finalists. That's how it is supposed to work.
The real measure of how tough the FIXture is, factors in 5 and 6 day breaks and travel components, but nobody really tries to calculate that.

Agree, it's f***ed big time. Surely d***head eddie isn't still getting into gil's ear?
We've only played them twice at AO, first in 2015 just after Phil Walsh's passing & the other in 2017, the week after the crers smashed us here in the wet.
I'm hoping we will be wearing the bars at the first home game to help celebrate the life of the Great Man. Replica 77 guernsey would be perfect.

Yeah I'm thinking we've managed to wrangle the prison bars for a Russell Ebert tribute game in Round 2. If true, the question becomes did we sign them away to get that?

I’ll make tears from your Wines.
Why would they want their players banned for finals??

It could be their racist former captain's last game in round 23. Would be nice to send him out with a drubbing and chorus of boos.

The Non Negotiable game's for Hinkley to *in win - otherwise * off.
1. WCE at AO Rd 6 ANZAC Rd. we are 0-5 against them at AO.
2. Rd 2 v Hawks at AO - Russell Ebert Tribute game.
3. Rd 10 v Geelong at Kardinia Park. We haven't won there since 2007. We are 2-12 there and 0-7 since 2007 win.
Any game we get granted to wear the PB's goes to the top of the list. I doubt the AFL has grown a set to let us, but if its the home showdown, that's Rd 23, and Hinkley might be gone by then, so get the 3 above done first.
