Thursday night suck's for me. Out of bed at 4.40am during the week. 4.40pm Sundays are marginal.

I work arvos so it sucks for me too.

 

[DapperDon]

Playing Geelong twice in 2025.

Maybe next season is the one they finally fall off the cliff, we might still be in the game 3rd quarter.

 

[eth-dog]

Sydney, Geelong, Carlton, WB, GC and Richmond double ups

 

[jannissary]

no pies twice? interesting

Counterpoint is that we've not had Carlton or Richmond for 4-5 years now

guess that’s true! i do like playing collingwood, especially when we win. nothing feels better (except finals success)

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Cats at GMHBA, what in the amateur leagues is that?

I don't really mind.

Looks good first glance

Playing a team at their home ground. Amazing.

 

[eth-dog]

Two top 6, two middle 6, two bottom 6. 5 away, 1 neutral, 1 Geelong, 16 Melbourne

 

[mike14]

3 x top-6 finishers, 1 middle-6, 2 x bottom-6 for the double ups.
Doubt it will matter much but aren't you meant to play most double-ups against teams in your 'bracket'?

Calculated after finals. Bulldogs are middle 6

Ahh, that (sort of) makes more sense

Where are our additional MCG Games? Carlton got 2 more. Go and get fk'ed

How does melbournes draw look?

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Playing a team at their home ground. Amazing.

It’s a shit stadium that should be knocked down and rebuilt with the right dimensions. It’s literally a different sport there.

Playing a team at their home ground. Amazing.

When do we get to do it against them? [emoji6]

Tough fixture at first blush, two trips to Perth,away to both Grand Finalists. Double ups against 4 of last year’s finalists. Will be doing well if we play finals (no I don’t see it happening).

 

[jdwood]

How does melbournes draw look?

Insanely soft.

They play 1 top 8 team (Hawthorn) twice.

They get North, WC, GC and StK twice.

The trade for their F1 gets worse by the day.

 

[eth-dog]

Melbourne finished bottom 6. Are people expecting them to get a hard draw after that? People are overreacting.

Don't care if it's a hard draw. Carlton was two wins ahead of 14th, Dogs 3 wins. Both had significant poor patches over the past 3 seasons. Gold Coast generally fade late in season. Geelong are due a down year.

In the end, if we make finals from this draw it shows our improvement.

 

[Zach Package]

Looking forward to North ending Brad’s coaching career in a nice traditional footy timeslot

 

[Hazardinho]

This fixture list has just confirmed to me one thing… welcome to Essendon Dyson Sharpe with pick 1.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

So we get 12 games against the top 8, everyone else gets less.

We get 6 games against top 4, everyone bar Freo gets less. WTF!!
