does anyone know when the times for round 24 are going to be released?

am thinking of flying over. should be able to get return flights for less than 200, and it is at adelaide oval which is walking distance from the city.

obviously need to know when the game is on first though!

    The AFL said it would release the fixture after round 17. Collingwood v Geelong almost a certainty for friday night, as an advantage for finishing 1st and 2nd respectively.

    Have a look at http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/with-13-teams-still-in-september-contention-afl-holds-off-on-fixture/story-e6frf9jf-1226091477374.

    The league's media officer, Patrick Keane, said the AFL would look at the composition of the round "in the week starting July 18".....which is this week!

    I'm heading over too with a few mates. First game at Adelaide Oval may be hard to get tickets so we'll be working our asses off to make it worthwhile haha!

    Is anyone really surprised that we got the worst possible timeslot? Really?

    2nd worst.

    It's more logical, in my view, to put Sydney on the Sunday as they wouldn't then have to travel at all and are probably gunning for the same spot as we are.

    Yeah its terrible the AFL are so mean to us .... I just cant work out why they do it.

    Why dont we call them names at every opportunity we get, post silly images about them .... Wait lets post a youtube video about them with some un-spoken meaning. Yeah that should do the trick ... we really will get them to change their mind about us.

    North's a bit stiff - they are more of a chance than us but the AFL has written them off.

    What else could we expect?

    I will get over there if we are any chance of going into September, but for that we must win at least one of the next three.

    Works out absolutely perfectly for my birthday weekend plans, plus we are on FTA B)

    We probably won't make finals and Port won't either, so no wonder we get the Sunday game. Still a decent break and I assume that should we make finals, we'll again score the Sunday spot, so a long enough turnaround after a relatively short trip.

    People are saying that 'North' got stiffed or that we got stiffed, but SOMEONE has to play on sunday... and there are only a handful of teams completely OUT of contention and obviously they wont be playing each other

    We only have ourselves to blame. If we were certainties for the finals we would be playing on the Saturday.

    Disappointed at the timing though. Airlines all had cheap flights for sale on Friday. Saturday is a better day for flights than Sunday.

    O well - hope that Tiger comes back soon and offers very cheap flights to make up for lost time...

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
