I think a bit tough. Adelaide, bears and Freo all at their home grounds.  The ladies bogey side, the dogs, at whitten oval.

    We play 2/4 of last years bottom 4 teams, whereas Brisbane play them all.

    But then who knows, some teams will improve and some be worse. Particularly in the women’s game, you only need one injury to a key player and your chances of winning the comp goes down the gurgler.

    You need to beat the best to be the best. The fixture is fine - we just can't afford to drop games against the bottom sides as we did last year.

    Disappointing however not to get home games against any of the big Victorian sides.

    Wondering if the fixture on the AFL website is the latest?

    Bulldogs have played 6 games and by my count are scheduled to play 3 more in rounds 7 to 9.  That is a total of 9 games for the season.  (They round 10 game vs Freo was brought forward and played a few weeks ago). 

    However, I can't find a substitute game for their round 2 postponed Lions game...

    I must say the current round has produced some disappointing contests. 

    With four extra teams coming in next year, the AFL needs to look at the disparity in strength between the top half dozen clubs and the rest and even consider a two division competition for a couple of years until things stabilize.

    Yep. Surely we'll play Geelong next season... could even still be in 2022!

    Well my fixture by Demonland was posted earlier on my phone than DIO and Wonnabeeri on the 2 Dec comments. 

    Would not have been much in it but Dland fixture for 10 rounds inc. R 10 was at 6.45 pm and the other comments after that were in my phone. DIO'was 8.07  pm. 
    But it's weird worrying about a Dees game potentially in 2023 when we haven't completed 2022. 
    Maybe  unless she lives in Geelong!!

    Yep, I hadn't caught up with the Round 10 release. From memory, I'd heard they were going to keep the last round unfixtured for flexibility.

    I'm just interested because it's a quirk in the fixture that we've never played Geelong in four seasons. No big deal.

    Bloody annoying they have the free game on at 4pm on weekday. Really hard to get there with the kids to watch the girls play after school being in freo.

    The AFLW fixture is broken but it can be fixed.

    Some posters have noticed that in the hastily put together redraw of matches, the Western Bulldogs who have played six games to date, have only three games left on their fixture. Geelong have played seven matches but are drawn to play four more including the mysteriously unplayed Round 7 game v Fremantle from Sunday.

    That game is the key to the puzzle. It should be scrapped and replaced with a game between Freo and the Bulldogs which would then ultimately lead to all teams finishing the season on 10 games. The question for the AFLW is when to play the game.

    By late cancellation of the Geelong vs Freo game the AFL seem to have woken up to the problem.

    You have answered the mystery by noticing the extra Geelong game and that a Freo vs Bulldogs game will fix the problem.   It can be played in round 10 as both teams currently have a 'bye' according to the afl website.

    Bulldogs are playing well so it could be a key game to determine the final ladder order. 

     

    Edit:  I just noticed that Freo and Bulldogs played their round 10 game on Feb 1 which Freo won.  So there must be a mismatch elsewhere in the fixture, at least in the one published on the afl website.

    Hopefully, the clubs know who they are playing...

    I think the AFL have snookered themselves.

    To keep the season going they rescheduled games but also mixed and matched teams that weren't originally scheduled to play each other.  Somewhere in those mixes and matches they have miscalculated the number of games.

    The result (according to my summary of the season) all teams will have played 10 games except the Bulldogs who will play 9. 

    Can't see a way of fixing this that will be fair to all teams.  The teams they haven't played are Lions, North, Saints and Carlton.  It wouldn't be fair to the first two who will be in finals to play another game for no points.  And it wouldn't be fair to teams in the finals for them to play Saints or Carlton for whom it will be an exhibition match and virtually gift the bulldogs 4 pts. 

    The best thing that can happen is that after round 9 the Bulldogs are well and truly out of contention for finals or cannot progress higher up the ladder if in finals, so the 10th game doesn't matter and it is forfeited. 

    I assume someone at the Bulldogs has alerted the AFL to this rather glaring anomaly.

    Yes - just realised that - well there is a problem.

    • 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.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
