Is anyone able to figure out then when round 1 will be? (dates!)

    I cant believe there was an option for choosing ten teams in the final series.

    I also cannot believe that 16.5% of fans supported a 10 teams in finals.

    Imagine finishing 10th out of 18 for the year and winning the grand final! It's bad enough that it could potentially happen if you finish 8th!

    i imagine with a 22 round season, inc 1 split round, and finals still being september it will start at the same time as last season?

    If I'm lucky, and my calculations are correct (and there's only one bye), my wedding is the week before round one!

    Meh - you've got to be invited in the first place.

    So glad they've retained the final 8, and haven't expanded it to a final 9 or 10.

    Don't like how this is only for 2 years, but hopefully common sense continues to prevail.

    I like the fact that the NAB Cup dates will be set in advance. It means the games outside of the 'normal' venues can be promoted well in advance, which is good for everyone.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
