News Geelong's 2020 fixture

[JohnZ]

Melbourne moved one home game from NT back to the MCG yet we're still stuck at 9 KP games.

AFL, why you do this?

 

[Herne Hill Hammer]

We play them coming off our bye. Their bye is the week after.

Ok, then we're the worst team in the comp coming off a bye.

 

[STPer18]

Hawthorn post-bye. That's me done.

 

[Max Milburn]

Hawthorn post-bye. That's me done.

Can't think of a more satisfying way to break our drought.

It would be interesting to review exactly how easy or hard each teams draw is at the half way point of the season

Though, if someone can explain how Richmond get an easier draw than the non-finalists in GC, Hawthorn & Carlton - I'd love to hear it

My two bellwether games last year were to beat the Hawks and Win after the bye,same this year, the game will be huge for the Cats season.

Do Champion data say how they come to their conclusions?

They seem such reasonable requests. Team MUST deliver on both of these in 2020. We don't even have to smash Hawthorn - one point will do.

 

[Larry Donohue]

Trying to destroy us early again with so many nightmarish interstate trips. Mostly tough ones too. Bastards.
Keep Gaz home for them

 

[Gavin Excell]

My first reaction is it’s tough and we would be lucky to be 2-6 after first two months but I thought same last year

The story is in this article and it says very little

Our start this year was worse tbh and we were 10-0

at least our run to the finals is a lot easier next year

Elle McPherson says hello! Oh wait... You're talking about a different kind of drought. Lol

 

[bulletproof]

I find the focus on the post bye game very strange.

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

Yeah but u see...

The AFL dont give a s**t.

So be prepared to get sick.

And fk the WC game. Will mark it down as one i can't go to. Unless i train it.

only 2 night games in winter so happy with that, the rest twilight so not too bad..

 

[Stan The Caddy]

It's a tough draw but it's also fair. Those first 4 rounds will tell the story IMO.

I find the results of our post bye games even stranger.

Agreed, but they are definitely determined for us to get off to slow starts.

It’s probably the only way the team will actually be up for the post-bye match. So not a bad option tbh. AFL trying to help us I feel.

We rank your fixture: Pros, cons, circle it, who got a raw deal?

Which is the game to look forward to? Who has the hardest draw? Our reporters have their say

Mitch Cleary - Third hardest draw = Geelong

Because history says we lose and the coach buries his head in the sand

 

[Spazz Cat]

Finished 3rd so got the 3rd hardest fixture. Fair enough.
2 games against the Hawks is good, all the other teams we play twice are bloody interstate teams though and Saints which is kind of boring

We will beat the still shell shocked Giants.And the hopeless Suns,I think the Tim Kelly mob will be to good,Cats and Hawks there will only be a goal in that one 50/50.We will cream the Saints,take care of the Dockers away as well as the Lions at KP no Brown no Essendon,Tigers will be to good,and Sydney are on the slide we will take care of them.
7 and 3 from the first 10,I'd take that.
