Fixture 2026 Fixture

[Whiskers]

They'll have a contingency plan for Pendles missing at least 1 game so expect big prime time MCG clashes for Collingwood for 2 weeks after ANZAC Day. (yes, yes, that's every week for Collingwood, I know)

Well they won’t be Friday matches in round 8 or 9 as they are already out.
We often play Collingwood in round 8 for some reason.
Could be Pies v Cats in round 8 or 9 but it won’t be a Friday.

How do I apply for a job doing the AFL fixture?

 

[bradfisher14]

The Prelim Finalists from the year before, should get the lions share of Prime time games. Brisbane, Geelong, Hawthorn and Collingwood should be the main attractions next year. Adelaide, Gold Coast, Fremantle and GWS should have the next rung bellow. Carlton and Essendon should be off broadway completely.

Good, bad or indifferent, Carlton will be a massive drawcard for attendances and TV viewers in 2026. You'll need to get used to it unfortunately.

If you get the job make Collingwood play 8 interstate games?

If you aim to make it fair or balanced at all, they won’t hire you!

Apply for a job at chatgpt I guess.

 

[Spirit Level]

If they really want 2 games on a Friday night make it less of an overlap.

Game 1 starts at 7PM, gane 2 a WA gane starting at 9pm

Yeah I really don't get why we can't do this.

A 7pm game on Friday night would work so much better here and screw the away fans it's our home game, either stay up or don't.

That will work well when the Suns and Giants are primetime with their massive fanbases watching on.

They will be given the best chance to grow their fan bases by being given those games.

Although that makes sense the AFL often plays pets with certain teams

I think North might’ve just released their fixture? The opponents at least, not times, on their socials. Looks like Adelaide R1, West Coast R2 (which I think is consistent with that I’ve seen on here), then Geelong, then it’ll be Good Friday but Dan Gorringe is narrating it so they left Carlton till the end. Then says Brisbane which is GR, then Essendon, Melbourne, PA, Richmond, St Kilda, Collingwood, then they had Carlton at the end.

Then says Brisbane which is GR, then Essendon. After that it seems to be alphabetical.

North should be trying for 4-2 with that fixture

Yeah but probably won’t be. That may be wrong it’s out in a few minutes anyways.

Over a 5 year period

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Are we really going to be subjected to the blues in primetime roughly half the time up to R15? What did we do to the AFL to deserve that punishment.

 

[JPetro83]

No doubt everyone is hitting f5/refresh on various apps/sites lol

 

[fl4gd0n5]

Out now on AFL app.

 

[fl4gd0n5]

Essendon and Melbourne playing twice is fun

 

[timokane]

Finally a favourable draw for Collingwood.

Kind of like it now.

Dont worry about having to go to sydney round rip.

A host of MCG games.

Only cop marvel twice.

Dont travel interstate as much.

Play freo gather round.

Get blues bombers twice

hawks cats once

stkilda twice

Heap of MCG games which im happy about

One our better draws.

Should then make top 4 in 2026 collingwood

 

[Art Vandelay_]

We got Fremantle, Adelaide, North Melbourne, Collingwood, Gold Coast and Brisbane twice.
Hard but not brutal.

Not complaining about last 6 being St.K (KP), Melbourne, Collingwood, Essendon (KP), North Melbourne and Richmond (KP).

They will be given the best chance to grow their fan bases by being given those games.

It would be beneficial for them but the TV networks won't want that with all the money they've paid for the rights. Would be reasonable to expect a mix of these clubs and a mix of the big clubs but the AFL don't have a reasonable bone in their bodies.

Hawks fixture is fantastic. As good as it could have gotten
