Interesting timing, we host St Kilda the following afternoon.

They’ll have fun converting the ground in time.

very interesting itll be less than 18 hours turn around from soccer to afl.

Any WAFL preseason games this weekend or next week for WCE?
See there are 4 matches on website schedule for this weekend, Peel playing. No match for WCE or East Freo?

We brought the game forward so all players had this weekend without a game

Get off it mate, since Optus

We've travelled to QLD twice in the same season several times

Not ideal, but you can avoid it

I don’t know if twice since 2012 (excluding 2020 hubs) is several times

I still can’t believe the wooden spooner and the premier are the only 2 teams that start the year playing finalist from the year before in their first 4 games. And the only team to only play at home once in their first four games.

You’d hope we made a song and dance about it behind closed doors. Don’t reckon any other spooner would’ve ever copped that.

Least $$ coming our way, no extra home game like SA teams, no home GF and favourable F/S concessions (Vic teams) and no help with NGAs (Qld/NSW).

Hardly seems fair but don’t do it publicly like the AFLW coach did. Didn’t work out well for him.

The Bulldogs missed out on finals last year, we play them in Round 3.


However, the issues you raise with the fixture remain valid.


After not trading out pick 1, the fixture was never going to do the club any favours.

The covid-hubs in 2020 and the soft cap have clearly shown that the administration couldn't care less about concerns from WA clubs.

Expecting any level of fairness or balance in the fixture from a regime that has repeatedly shown itself to be both partisan and fickle in its judgment would be expecting far too much. Indeed, early indications from the Dillon/Kane tenure suggest this will likely get worse rather than improve.

Its an absolutely brutal first month of footy coming up. Aslo we play GCS twice who are on the improve St Kilda who made finals Freo who should make finals leaving only the Bombers who knows how they will go and Norf. Not the easiest draw for the wooden spooners. We should end up with pick 1 or 2.

Those double-ups look ok to me.

Which clubs would you be happy to play twice?

Nothing wrong with them just dont think we will win many. Probably Richmond and hawks would be easyer but who knows how Richmond will go with Lynch back.

 

[Cuzz09]

Ah well no injuries and games into kids will be better than wins lol

From what I can see there a 3 x 4 game blocks where we are a shot of winning...

Rounds 5-8

Rounds 12-16

Rounds 19-22

I'm really hoping we can snag min. 1 win in each block and obv the more the better

The other games I assume we'll be taken care of quite comfortably.

Hopefully our best players are primed for these blocks

I reckon we will win against the tigers ....pending a relatively healthy list to choose from

 

[ROO DOGG]

Tigers will be better with Lynch back you'd think.

 

[ep2018]

Hopefully we beat Richmond in round 5 at home otherwise I cant see a win before the bye. The Owen jokes will be non stop.

After the bye we should win one of the North or Hawks games at home, and potentially another one or two depending on our form.

Yep, there will plenty of Docker mates that will be returning the Owen favour.

Thank for the memories:

That's what happens when your team sucks. North and Bulldogs copped it for years, now it's our turn.

 

[ioppolo]

Darkness by the third quarter on a Sunday. Might even be raining and 10 degrees to top it off.

 

[Cuzz09]

Sunday arvo subi games were our flat track ones

Reckon they were pretty regularly 2:40pm games though. That blew out to 3:20pm and beyond when they moved to Optus. 4pm+ is a joke. There must be another gig at Optus that weekend which requires reconfiguration of seating or something

Springboks are over in August, so that might disrupt the footy as well.
