A month or 2 back we booked a cruise for next year. It takes in round 3 which made sense for the Port supporting family, round 1 is Easter which is always a Crows home game, round 2 is Port at home, then Crows home again in round 3. Clockwork.
Then the AFL release the fixture and Port are playing at home over Easter but they are also playing at home in round 3. Further to this, it just so happens they are playing Essendon in round 3.
Great. Not only did we not play in Adelaide last season and only once the year before, but I miss out on one of the chances to see them here this season.
Damn you AFL, you and your fixturing shits me.
