Fixture 2024, what do we want?

[eth-dog]

Using Carlton as a guide for double ups, I think what we can get is:

Top 6 (Col, Mel, Port, Bris, 2x Car/StK/GWS/Syd): 1-2
Middle 6 (2x Car/StK/GWS/Syd, WB, Ade, Gee): 3-4
Bottom 6 (Ric, Fre, GC, Haw, NM, WC): 1-2

As well as 6 or 7 interstate trips. Hoping our COVID travel allowance still has us in good stead to only have 6 including Gather Round. Pending finals (hopefully Carlton lose this week) I'm hoping our double ups will be something like:

Collingwood, Melbourne, Carlton, St Kilda/GWS, Adelaide, Hawthorne


Away trips to Adelaide, Gold Coast, Brisbane, GWS and West Coast (excluding Gather Round).

Can we play ourselves twice ?

Can we play ourselves twice ?

We'd find a way to lose twice though. And get some injuries to key players

 

[citizen-erased]

I want a tough fixture

Pies x2 (happens anyway)
Dees x2
Gather rd + double up v Crows
Hawks x2 - toughest side in bottom 4
Freo x2
Cats x2

Can we play ourselves twice ?

We play ourselves constantly.

A fit
Reid, Jones and cox

Bryan playing 20+ games in the ruck
Cox playing in the backline full time
A small forward group who can deliver consistent pressure
A more developed defensive system

We can tick most of those boxes, a lot of other stuff will fall into place.

Melbourne and Hawthorne twice would the double ups I most want. Hopefully not the Cats and no SCG trip.

Oooop

Good post though

pies twice, st kilda twice & hawthorn twice for melbourne teams.

probably end up vsing one of gold coast, sydney or brisbane twice, and west coast twice (one at marvel one at optus)

i do agree that a tough fixture would be good to see though. while we didn't win either i enjoyed watching both games against the power

Did we win ?

Absolutely. Us getting a soft draw for another 10th-12th is gonna do us no favours.

Did we win ?

It ended a draw.

 

[windyhill]

Always amuses me the “who do we want” I want a strong list before any fixture requests.

Can we play West Coast every week?
