Thoughts?

Looks like another miss for me & the JLT series next year. Port and St Kilda. Why do they keep putting Richmond and Carlton on to open the season? So many other options that could attract crowds / make the AFL money and actually be competitive. NM again gets rewarded with a mediocre timeslot.

Round 2 has also been leaked. Nice to see us get an early Friday night game and hopefully we can break our 8 year drought against the Swans.

Really hope we get a few more Fri/Sat night games. This year was absolutely terrible, we barely got any.. while clubs that are poor performers got rewarded with more. Even just more NM games on FTA would be a win for me.

GOOD FRIDAY:

DONS V ROOS
PORT V EAGLES

I'm happy we've been retained and rightfully so - we have campaigned for GF footy for ages. However I am quite shitty that the Dons get ANOTHER significant game, and the inclusion of Port v Eagles...... it damages the significance of us earning the GF spot. Whatever.... should just put Collingwood and Melb in there too and then bump out the teams that actually need it.

Carlton v. Essendon tonight. Looking forward to the footy being back.
