    Looks like this:

    Thurs GC v Rich
    Fri Geel v Ess
    Sat day either us or Haw v Port
    Sat twi Ade v Bris
    Sat night Freo v Carl
    Sat night 2 either us or Haw v Port
    Sun early Sydney v West Coast
    Sun day Coll v St Kilda
    Sun twilight Dogs v North

    Last question is whether we're the Sat night game or whether they give it to Hawthorn v Port (Burgoyne's 400th, and my bet).

    Not with Adelaide v Brisbane on Saturday.

    Radio will want a Melbourne Saturday afternoon game, not Adelaide v Brisbane.

    Another Prime Time slot gifted to Geelong

     

    If true, that will mean Geelong will have been on Thursday or Friday night for five out of six straight weeks (Rounds 13, 14, 15, 16 and 18).

    It's of course somewhat possible their Round 17 game vs Carlton will end up in prime time too. And then in Round 19 Geelong plays Richmond, another major Friday night contender.

    The rolling fixture presents good opportunities but one of the clear drawbacks is that if each week the AFL feels determined to prioritise the top sides, the same sides are going to get all of the prime time matches. 

    The way it's shaping, we're going to have had Geelong on Thurs/Fri night for something like six out of seven straight weeks).

    Richmond is also likely to feature a lot: Friday night tonight, Thursday night next week, then games vs Collinwood, Brisbane and Geelong, all of which you can easily see being in prime time.

    Our round 22 clash against Geelong will also surely be on Thursday or Friday night.

    Yep.

    So it's entirely feasible that in the 11 games from Rounds 13-23, Geelong will be on a Thursday or Friday night in all bar four of them. Which will be 10 total given they had three Friday nights before the bye.

    Meanwhile Richmond tonight plays its 7th Thurs/Fri night with its 8th next week.

    Meanwhile how is it 6pm on Friday and we don't know when teams are playing next week?

    Doesn't the length of a break between games influence how a team plans its rehab/training schedule for the week?

    Really ambivalent about Geelong getting the prime time slots

    Just keep winning and it’ll come 

    It's not a gripe about us not getting prime time slots.

    It's about the general football population being given games on TV featuring the same sides all the time.

    It's just a heap of Geelong and Richmond.

    It's an interesting and in my view negative side effect to the rolling fixture, which almost guarantees the same sides playing all the prime time games in the second half of the year.

    Still no fixture? How are teams meant to plan? This is ridiculous. 

    Can only imagine the clubs have been told by now.

    Sounds like it’s 1.45 or 7:25 for the Dees, and the AFL and channel 7 are weighing up whether to put on Burgoyne’s 400th or a finals relevant game in Melb V GWS for Saturday night.

    Quietly hoping for a good old fashioned Saturday arvo game.

    I would also prefer an early Saturday game. Finishes at a great time to still have a Saturday night out.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
