Prediction Predict the 2020 Round 1 fixture

[Howard Littlejohn]

I call it Telstra Dome because it was the best sounding name

I call it Docklands because I despise commercial ground names.
And as I'm sure you've had pointed out to you ad nauseam, "dome" doesn't suit something with a flat roof. Its closer to an eliptical cylinder.

You’re right, but 10 year old me didn’t care about the distinction and it’s stuck.

sorry, meant to be cats v saints.

Why do we have to play the Cats?

Thursday Night
Richmond v Carlton - MCG. Traditional Opener

Friday Night
Brisbane v Geelong - Gabba. Round 22 game was a beauty and a reward for Brisbanes good 2019

Saturday Afternoon
Saints V Fremantle - Marvel. Hill v his old team at his new home ground.

Saturday Twilight
GWS v Port - Giants Stadium. Giants get an early home game before hitting the road during the Easter Show

Saturday Night
WCE v Pies - Optus. A couple of belters in recent years would be a great way to kick back Saturday night
Dees v North - MCG. Early season clash between teams that traded first round picks in 2020 draft

Sunday Early
Hawks v Dogs - MCG. Perfect game for both sides to show off their new line ups

Sunday Afternoon
Essendon v Swans - Marvel. 7 would love this as a lead in to their Sunday night news. A fit Daniher against the side that couldn't get the deal done.

Sunday Twilight
Adelaide v Gold Coast - Adelaide Oval. Rebuilding Crows against a Suns side out to make a statement.

Can't be real because one of Brisbane and Gold Coast will play at home.

 

[Millsie69]

Can't be real because one of Brisbane and Gold Coast will play at home.

also calling Marvel Stadium ‘Etihad’ seems dodgy

 

[Gosaints12]

Hawthorn have a bye???

And the Dogs play twice?

Tough week for the bulldogs having to back up an Adelaide trip in Sydney the next day. which one is supposed to be Hawthorn?

 

[LiterallyNobody]

No way that is real - If Brisbane are at home that means they host rounds one and two and Gold Coast away - that combined with the fact interstate teams alternate each year and rarely start the first two weeks both at home or away leads to believe this is likely fake.

here’s my prediction:

THURSDAY
Richmond v Carlton - MCG(n)

FRIDAY
West Coast v Collingwood - Optus Stadium (n)

SATURDAY
Sydney v Brisbane - SCG (twilight)
Essendon v GWS - Marvel (twilight)
Geelong v Fremantle - GMHBA Stadium (n)
Port Adelaide v Western Bulldogs - Adelaide Oval (n)

SUNDAY
North Melbourne v St Kilda - Marvel
Hawthorn v Adelaide - MCG
Gold Coast v Melbourne - Metricon (twilight)

 

[LiterallyNobody]

If I’m wrong and the aflw gf is round two not round one, bump one of the two twilight clashes to 1:45pm
