Herald Sun reckons Adelaide at AAMI in round 1

You would think the afl would want their major cash cow (well it`s us or collingwood, let`s be honest) in Melbourne as often as possible. 5`s not too bad though.

 

[DaSawx]

We were given a cakewalk draw last year, we shouldn't whinge with 5 interstate games next year

Lol. What a great way to start the year

 

[DaSawx]

At least we get to play them in Melbourne for a change.

If there was ever a slight 1% chance of knocking them off or getting as close as possible round 1 would probably be the best time to play them over there

Herald Sun reckons Adelaide at AAMI in round 1

Woo hoo!!!! Great to be able to see the boys kick of the season in person. I hope it's a different result to the last time it occurred, Port belted us over here a few years back. Great to see 2 games at footy park too. Hoping to get over to Melbourne for at least 1.

 

[red+black]

Only 6 night games in melbourne for the year

That's great news

Being absolutely punished for a crap 2006.

And so we should.

If you want to put any hard earned on Essendon to make the finals, wait till the draw comes out.... the odds will go right up!!

There is no 22 round draw that would see Essendon make the finals in 2007. Fair enough to be hopeful, but let's not be blind and stupid.

 

[gillyrulz]

every year essendon have to play either the premiers runner up or a team that domianted last season...in round 1

why oh why

 

[windyhill]

We were given a cakewalk draw last year, we shouldn't whinge with 5 interstate games next year

We had 4 last year, one more is not going to hurt, well it will hurt it`s another definite loss. I remember last seasons uproar about our supposedly good draw, my reply was that to have a good draw, you need a good team.

PORT Adelaide will begin its 2007 premiership campaign where its 2006 season ended - against Fremantle at Subiaco Oval.
The Power is scheduled to play the Dockers at night on Saturday, March 31, with hometown rival Adelaide beginning its season against Essendon at AAMI Stadium on April 1.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Went to the 2005 and 2006 matches, 88 and 138 points respectively. Following this trend should we expect a 188 winning margin? Nah just kidding, its round 1 and I would expect your boys to be up for it.

Finally more day games than night games.

We have been to Sydney every year for ages, Why? Is it just because of the Marn Grook Trophy.

Twice to AAMI and Subi kill me now.

Do we play Carlton twice.

 

[EssendonPride]

Yay... our first games on april fools day.........

Reckon Adelaide will let us thump them for a joke??

If that's true then, unless we make the finals, Hird's last game will be interstate.

now that is a real shame, i was really looking foward to going to see hirds last game in person, i guess i wil have to watch it on tv and go to the rd 21 game(hopefully against carlton).
