Fixture 2018

[kranky al]

I was thinking Essendon first up as they have a huge WA fanbase and the AFL have yet to exploit the Woosha factor yet.

Freo will get Hawthorn or Richmond the week after. Leaning towards Richmond as they are reigning premier who also have a huge WA following.

Aaahhhh long may freo remember their first game at the new oval......

 

[flamingEMBERS]

Are we talking about the same traditional Carlton Richmond game that only became a thing after both our previous captains and Brownlow medalists kicked it off?

 

[wal]

Yeah, cause the Dockers got so many to their last game at Subiaco.

I don't want to share the first game with those twats anyway. Would like Richmond just because they were our first game at Subiaco, but it think they traditionally play some other Vic team first round don't they?

I still remember cheering Ash McIntosh off the ground at his last game at Subiaco, shame there wasn't too many WC supporters doing the same.

I reckon Eagles vs Bulldogs round 1.

 

[liam123]

I think if we get a Vic team over it will be colliflog

Hope so. Smack them in Perth then hopefully not have to chalk up our annual loss to them at the G.

 

[Doughboy]

I am speculating that there will be a fixture next year...

 

[EagleShore]

So actually playing Goldcoast and/ or Brisbane at Subi instead of Perth Stadium?? First I've heard of that. But would be a big plus wherever they play it.

Edit: there's no way we would actually ever get 16+ games, I'm guessing your post was sarcastic. And neither should we. The problem is how many teams are based in Victoria, not how many games we get in WA.

Whoa, whoa...check out Lightning McQueen over here!

 

[RookiePick]

We are West Australians and this is the AFL.

Correct spelling is FIXture. Please be mindful.

Would've been vs us if not for having the opening game at the new stadium so can't really complain.

we can't complain ??? 30 years in the comp being screwed over..Freo get the extra home game

shows how irrelevant and a zero threat Freo are though

 

[ep2018]

Derby round 2 then surely? Unless there are two games in Perth in round 3?

Of course they do, it had to be in round 3 and we already have a home game that round. You can't have your cake and eat it.

Must be 2 games in Perth one would think. Plus I would imagine Freo would want their first home game vs an interstater in the new stadium.

Sunday night.
Against a non Victorian team.

Way to open a new stadium ****ing AFL flogs. I would be livid if I was Nisbett. Straight on the blower to Gill to have this changed.

Were pushing for Collingwood I heard.

 

[MIKE85]

So we get home round 1, 3 & 4 (Talk is GC will play Freo and us in consecutive weeks) freo round 3 as the suns "home" game, then us in round 4. Not a bad start to the year, travel wise.

Unbelievable, the dick timeslot no one wants, probably be stinking hot. Surely Friday or Saturday night was the obvious slot.
That's just a big FU to the Eagles and WA in general.
