    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: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    • PREGAME: Collingwood

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
