LOCKED IN.

The fixture has been announced for Round 24, with Carlton set to have a standalone home game on Sunday evening.

Taking on the Giants in the final round of the regular, the game will take place on Sunday 27 August at Marvel Stadium at 6:10pm (AEST).

The game will be the last match for the entire season, meaning all eyes will be on the Blues under lights come Round 24.

6:10pm on a Sunday?

You’re having a laugh.

How is it that potentially 5 teams who will be in the 8 are playing on Sunday... and of course the Pies play on the Friday against the *. Last year us vs Pies was the final game on the Sunday too.

Rewarded with our form and the fact it's seen as the blockbuster match-up finals importance wise, with a timeslot where families can't attend and it's on Pay TV only. Not ideal from a commercial perspective.

With the Bye after the round it doesn't matter too much, though it's not as great time slot for attendance.

That's the point, the AFL doesn't have the feel for the common attendee. Hawks v Freo/Crows v Eagles, North v GC, could've been the 2 at least on the Sunday as no one by that point is either really going to go see them and Eagles/Freos fans usually attend on Sundays... they don't have anyone of note retiring for fans to want to say farewell to really any of those teams.

Will be a dead rubber for us hopefully, unless we are playing for fourth

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

campaigners my plane leaves Melbourne at 8pm that Sunday. How've I managed no footy

 

[Banga19]

Odd slot, but maybe gives us a chance to get one more player back for it. And then week off the following week anyhow.

 

[Cowboyblues]

Bloody hell.
Ripper time slot for trains to come home to Ballarat. If the first ones full ya wait til 11.00.

 

[SBYM]

We should be flattered.

We're very clearly the main course, the rest of the minnows are either a palate cleanser or an entrée.

Hopefully this is the only thing we have on the line in this game.

Don't care who we play in the first week of finals.

The only game I want to avoid in September is Brisbane at the GABBA.

 

[Bluella]

Bloody hell. Have to travel for work that day so won't be able to go. Hopefully will be able to catch it in a pub!

 

[bigbertha5]

Ridiculous time slot.

In some ways I'd like to play GWS first week of the finals because I reckon there'd be more Carlton supporters at the one game than there's ever been at a game before.

 

[Blue Reaper]

Poor time slot for most supporters I presume, but suits me and Junior BRs perfectly coming from interstate (assuming I can get tickets) .

 

[AndyLucimitis]

WTF - That's when I have my roast ???

 

[bigm386]

A fixture designed for television ratings.

Slap in the face to fans who actually go to the game. 6:10 on a school night. Thanks AFL.

 

[lukep_86]

Member thank you round!? Thanks for attending our games this year, have a timeslot that is good for no one. Really feel for those with young families or those who live far from Melbourne.

AFL doing AFL things again..what a joke!

We might be driving that night, always room for a fellow Rat Bagger, pm me

* the AFL. They couldn't dump us into the twilight zone hours quick enough when we stumbled, yet were still one of the most watched teams.
Just keep winning and stick it up them!!!! Win a premiership and make their darling clubs like the Aints and Bummers spew even more!!!! F@#kem.
