If we finish top, and win a home prelim, it'll be Friday night.
In 2012 the Hawks finished top and had to play on the Saturday (against us) which wasn't fair. Since then the highest ranked prelim final is the Friday night.

Yes I vaguely remember this bs by the AFL. Its not set in stone, with that said I think it will hinge on the final 4.

No but I think last year had we beaten the Swans we were scheduled for a Friday night prelim.

Playing injured players in September will kill us. You could carry one, but really no more than that. Even then it would have to be a blue chip player, where playing at 80% is better than 400kay at 100%.
We would've been playing Geelong, who were the highest ranked team at that stage.
Haven't they discussed it would potentially be a Thursday?
That's the Qualifying Final.
Prelims are Friday night and Saturday Twilight if interstate and Saturday night if involving two Melbourne clubs.

Interesting discussion on SEN Pure Footy in regards to Alex Keath. Keath according to Glenn Luff from champion data was the best defender in the league last week.Daniher normally averages 10.1 ratings points per 100minutes. Keath kept him to negative .1
This from a guy that that has played a handful of games. Great effort Keath and well done Hamish Ogilvie.

Doesn't hurt to be settled heading into the pointy end of the season 
Cheney on the emergency list, wonder if there's a concern about a defender?

So... who's starting the Gameday thread? 
Which 8-day break are you talking about?
If we win the QF, then we have a 2-week break before the PF, while we wait for the Semi Finalists to be decided. We would, however, have an 8 day break between the PF (Friday) and the GF (Saturday).

Winning in week 1.
then winning in week 3 and having an 8 day break before a gf.
I thought that was obvious?
Not entirely... I thought you were suggesting an 8 day break before he PF. 8 days between PF& GF makes sense, as I said in my previous post.

Well you were the only one. Everyone else knew. Happy to help.

Doedee?
Yeah, I wondered about that.
The selectors have clearly decided Cheney will play finals if required ahead of Doedee based 100% on experience/perceived readiness for the next level.
Remember all the anti-club posters predicting that the selectors wouldn't be able to resist the temptation of playing Thommo for every game this year? Even when the club said that he was no longer an automatic selection, and that his primary role would be player/coach in the SANFL...
How many games did he end up playing?
