Geelong in Geelong, 3 trips to SA (I love that but not good for Hawthorn), 1 night game in the first 15 rounds, and basically all Sundays, trips to QLD/ACT/WA/SA, home game against Brisbane at Marvel, only get 1 bottom 5 side twice. Who the hell did we p**s off?

Not really sure how this works - doesn’t our low ladder position last season mean we’re meant to play low finishing clubs twice??
We’ve got Geelong, giants, Collingwood, Adelaide, Tiges, Norf twice

Like, how does a team finish 3rd last, and get absolutely reamed like that in the fixture?

And Geelong get a dream draw, Norf twice and finish the year off against WCE at the Cattery?

I thought you were supposed to get 2 from the band that you finished in.
Looks like we got:
Top 6 - Pies
Middle 6 - Giants, Cats, Crows
Bottom 6 - North (Edit - and Tigers)
Not withstanding Giants made a prelim. So a bit stiff there.

Did we leave a flaming bag of poo on the doorstep of AFL house...
Or maybe they've got us winning finals again already?

Brutal draw
Reigning premiers twice
The team they beat by 1 point in a prelim twice
Geelong and Richmond with a bunch of flags in the last few years
The fast improving Adelaide
and the Shinbeggers and their handouts.

They’ve included giants in the middle band even though they were a point away from a grand final. Geelong coming off a premiership hangover and Adelaide who should’ve played finals if it wasn’t for a goal umpiring blunder…
Had another look - Richmond the other one in the bottom 6- very stiff…
I guess we’ll be put to the test - we’ll find out just how much this young side has grown…

Not sure you can say we have basically all Sundays - we actually have more Sat games in the rounds that have been released so far.
Fri- Nil
Saturday - Bombers (A), Dees (H), Suns (A), Saints (H - TAS), Crows (H), Giants (H - TAS), Tigers (A)
Sunday - Pies (A - SA), North (A), Swans (H), Dogs (A), Port (A), Lions (H - Marvel),
Monday - Cats (H)
The Cats game every year means we follow up with a few Sunday games, otherwise we would be coming off 5 day break, plus its gather round week after in SA.
But of a dud fixture in terms of home games. But I don't mind a tough fixture. Battling the contenders now is good for development.
Look at Carlton and essendon - years of easy fixtures so any rise up the ladder they get found out

Yeah true that - guess we gotta consider those ones
My young fella plays footy on Sundays so as long as they don't clash I dont mind. Was never a fan of Thursday night games at Adelaide Oval anyway

Yeah I get that for those with kids sports on Sunday it would be impossible to get to a game.Yeah true that - guess we gotta consider those ones
I personally prefer Sunday games as I play footy Saturday and very difficult to get to game unless its Sat night. Would obviously prefer Friday or Thursday night but we aren't there yet in terms of drawcard. Maybe the following season

Only one home game at Marvel and not against a Melbourne side. Only one Sunday game so far at the MCG. High drawing ($$) games against Melbourne, Geelong, Sydney, Collingwood and Richmond at the MCG. It's really not that bad. Annoying that the return game against Geelong isn't at the G.

Just need to get to the "one year home/one year away" model.

Melbourne, Geelong, Sydney, Collingwood and Richmond all at the G is dud? Likely replacement games versus Carlton, Richmond and the Druggers. Possibly the best home/MCG fixture we have had for a long while.
Draw just made our future 1st pick a little more valuable.

They won't be complaining if we give them a beat down at the Cattery. Be absolute gold.
