1pm starts work best for me, 4.40pm starts are for the tip.
Yep, whilst I'd prefer any time on a Saturday, if it is Sunday (likely) have grown to not mind 1.10pm as get home earlier, lunch at Social club. 440pm is horrid but stupidly I keep turning up...

1pm Sunday can cause major issues for anyone with kids playing junior footy. Last season I had to go through the fixture and identify the weekend games we’d struggle to get to, and that’s magnified when you only have 7 local home games.
 
No matter what time of what day, it’s going to * somebody over.

We should revolutionise footy and request 2pm Saturday starts for home games. With the ressies on beforehand of course.

……at Arden St like ye olden days.

7:50 Friday night, or Thursday night games causing similar feedback from parents with kids

My kids are still young at the moment, so earlier slots work.

You’ll never please everyone, but one thing I will guarantee is that 4.40pm Sunday games will pi$s 95% off.
 
Come on lads. Anyone wanna remind me of our ladder positions and crowd numbers (where applicable) of the last four years? We get the scraps, and it's hard to argue against at this stage
Sure, but when we played in consecutive prelims in 14/15, we still started like this:

Adelaide at home, Saturday night
Brisbane away, Saturday twilight
Melbourne at Bellerive, Sunday afternoon
Fremantle at home, Sunday twilight
Gold Coast away, Saturday twilight

Good times...

We started like that but I distinctly remember plenty of free to air timeslots during that period. We certainly snagged a few Fridays too, particularly around 15-16.

Bottom line is, we're never gonna receive priority treatment. But we can definitely improve that treatment (night timeslots, Sunday arvo primetime) if we pick up the form a bit

Very true. I guess I’d rather be pissed but able to attend than completely unable due to it clashing with junior footy (for which times fluctuate between a 9am start to a 2pm start every Sunday throughout the Winter).

Junior footy is great fun, treasure the time while it lasts. Happy to send updates from the ground 😉
