Fixture 2025 Fixture Discussion

[Dalions]

Yeah the maths was pretty mind boggling. Points to layers upon layers of inefficiency being built up over the 60 years or so of television's existence.

Yep, even if we were able to travel at 10% the speed of light it would still take us over 40 years to reach the nearest star system to us.
And being able to get to that speed is light years away considering we cant even travel at 1% of the speed of light.

I didn't realise I'd be needing to brush up on my Carl Sagan books to keep up with the fixture discussion

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Presumably if we can fix the slower bits of the broadcast network and push it through the light barrier, the resulting time dilation effect should see us being able to watch the action before it happens. I'm all in favour of this because it should see the end of sports betting

I'd also be in favour of this because it will make it easier to decide which games to go to.

I will go to a conference in Perth on the 8th to the 10th of March next year so I want a Brissie game on at this time in Perth. My best mate is a Tigers fan so i want a Brissie/Tiges game somewhere that suits us both.

 

[Elixuh]

I just want a fixture that tastes like a real fixture

My selfish fixture wishlist:

• Carlton at the MCG, which hasn't happened since 2000.
• A game at Alice Springs or Darwin, provided we get 6 games in Victoria, just because I want to be able to say I've been to a Lions game in every state and territory in Australia (and New Zealand as well) - I actually had flights booked in 2021 for the game against the Dees but didn't get to go because of covid.
• Saturday twilight Adelaide Oval game for fake magic round.
• Every game we play in Adelaide to be on a Saturday.

I'm also not turned on by it, but it's also the biggest timeslot in the NFL these days, so maybe it actually will work?

Sunday nights can only work if it's on channel 7 nationally rather than a paywall. It works in NFL because it's on broadway.

Wonder if we’re finally considered good enough to be fixtured at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round.

Colour me shocked

Another good thing is it is against the Dogs.
So, we should avoid Ballarat again should we get to play them twice.
If 2 meetings in 2025 a Gabba game is due even though we have only played them once during the H & A season in the previous 3 years.
2024 R13 Marvel
2023 R3 Marvel
2022 R16 Gabba

Not playing in places I’ve never heard of or grounds with straight lined wings is an improvement

I was hoping for the Barossa so I could fit in a wine tour.

It doesn’t sound like the fixtures been finalised so might be worth writing to Dillon

I think I'll be keen for all 4 days at Adelaide Oval so I expect by the end both my liver and wallet will be in a lot of strife

I will be trying to organise a work meeting in Adelaide on the Friday .

Strong recommend for a pre-game lunch on the Saturday:

2KW Bar & Restaurant - 2KW Bar & Restaurant

Same here, and I don't even have an office there.

That's more like it. How dare the reigning premier even consider having delusions of grandeur.

Adelaide Kardinia park it is

 

[Big Sauce 21]

Was considering flying down if we were involved in a triple header. Hard pass now

Saturday Norwood is the worst of all worlds. Rules you out of the double header at AO.
