Re: Our Draw

please merge mine with the other!!

 

[Funkalicous]

Only 3 Sunday games. 5 Friday games, 1 Thursday game, and we only play the previously top 4 finishers once each. Opposition supporters will be spewing!

 

[kreuze_missile]

Looks good, only 8 games at the MCG though. The sooner we get out of the s**t Dome deal the better.

 

[jj1978]

6 interstate trips (1 our GC game though), but in saying that the draw is not overly bad.... if we improve as I think/hope we improve we could have at least 7/8 wins by round 11.

 

[celtic_pride]

I love it ...

we get Freakmantle twice, that's 8 points in the bank already ..

And yes only Handbags and Tassie twice...

Fantastic draw for us, honestly it is, and the interstate clubs mix is fantastic ..

Best draw we've had in years IMHO.

 

[Kramer1]

If this is right it looks like a dream draw.

Six interstate, including one home match against Freo at Carrara. Only one trip to Perth.

Three very winnable games first up.

Only one game each against Geelong, Hawthorn and WB (not that the Dog's strike too much fear)

One game against bogey teams Sty Kilda and NM.

Even money chance or better against all teams that we play twice (Richmond, Brisbane, Essendon, Sydney, Freo, Collingwood, Adelaide).

 

[gdogga]

Richmond x2
Essendon x2
Collingwood x2
Brisbane x2
Adelaide x2
Fremantle x2
Sydney x2
Hawthorn x1
Western Bulldogs x1
West Coast x1
St.Kilda x1
Port Adelaide x1
North Melbourne x1
Geelong x1
Melbourne x1

 

[Kramer1]

Dont worry, we'll be playing more than 8 games at the 'G in 2009

 

[one_twelve112]

Is Carlton vs. Freo at C on May 9th our Gold Coast Game?

 

[Pamam]

Is Carlton vs. Freo at C on May 9th our Gold Coast Game?

yep it is

am booking that in right now!!!

 

[jj1978]

I'm surprised the AFL decided to give us LOLMantle twice instead of the Weagles...

With Judd now on our team we have the opportunity to really milk a good rivalry against them and milk good crowds. The crowds against lolmantle are always iffy... our game against Weagles at the dome will pull in at least 40,000.

Can't see the lolmantle supporters getting to heated about losing warnock

 

[Kramer1]

Been under a rock?

 

[celtic_pride]

Now lets have a look at the teams we play twice ..

Richmond x2
Essendon x2
Collingwood x2
Brisbane x2
Adelaide x2
Fremantle x2
Sydney x2

Lets be realistic here, we have been given a damn easy draw with the fodder we play twice ...
This draw is like 'cake' LMAO

6 Friday night games

 

[Funkalicous]

West Coast in Melbourne is probably the easiest gig in footy these days. Feel free to tick that off as a win.

 

[Funkalicous]

6 Friday night games

Oh yeah. Nice!

 

[Effes]

Bit arrogant saying points in the bag.

It can all change very quickly.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Like it.

Only 4 hangover Sunday games. (2 of them interstate)

6 Friday night prime times (3 in a row 24/7, 31/7, 7/8).
About bloody time.

The way it is structured,
could make the eight without beating a side above us.

 

[Effes]

West Coast in Melbourne is probably the easiest gig in footy these days. Feel free to tick that off as a win.

That's arrogant too.

You can't mark games downs as wins in this competition. Sure we should be favourites but clubs can turn it around very quickly.

 

[celtic_pride]

Come off it, if we are legit about where we're going as a club, we have to make sure we pencil in wins against rabble like Freo and the Eagles as wins, I saw the Coasters gets smashed several times on telly this year, trust me, they are still going to be bottom 4 fodder for a couple of years.

 

[Kramer1]

That's arrogant too.

FFS...the draw has just come out. This is the time for big predictions and grandiose statements.

I don't think making predictions in a forum some five or so months before the season is actually going to alter the outcome of those games, do you?

 

[juddola]

We have the bombers and the pies on friday nights at the G. im very happy.

 

[Athomas]

This is like the best draw I have ever seen!

6 Friday night games! That is mad!
