Can't complain. Don't play any team twice who finished above us.

And I reckon only playing the swans once is a good outcome.

I can’t work out how we have the most difficult draw. Unless they count preseason intraclub scratch matches as then we play ourselves about 5 times. 

Will be interesting to see how the Cats go as they play us, the dogs, Brisbane, and Port in their 9 games at GMBH so they can’t lock in their usual 8 wins at the cattery.  They have Sydney, North, West Coast, GWS, and Port interstate. May struggle to get to 12 wins for the season.  But I feel like it’s a win win, as if they miss the 8 nothing would make me happier other than us playing them in another final.

    10 games at the G and 2 at Marvel. Considering we are hosting a game in NT that’s a good draw for me.

    I’ll be at 12 games, you beauty!

    12 games at the G

    No premier gets an easy draw and anyways we are better off with a difficult fixture list. Toughens us up for finals. 

    And remember we beat all the Top 8 last year other than the umpire influenced loss to the Doggies at the G. It's the lesser teams we struggled against.

    The Hawk supporters don't show up unless they are Premiership contenders and that's not likely.

    Most are really fair weather fans...they only have a few rusted on's and I reckon I know most of them.

    They should definitely be shunted down to Kardinia Park in our place then!

    This will be a Cue in the rack game by the Blues. 

    I recall a game in the Roos years when we were pushing for finals and in the second last round (I think) put in a limp performance against the Blues on our home ground which finished our chances. Embarrassing to watch their goals raining over my head all afternoon.

    We owe them, cue in rack or not.

    I think it’s fair to have a crack at them but round 7, Saturday, 4:35. Early in the season and a decent time slot that’s family friendly but after junior sport. If they’re 3-4 or even a competitive 2-5 with a new coach they’ll turn up. Especially if it’s one of their Tassie replacement games. 

  • Quote

    If Carlton are any good next year I can see our round 22 home game attracting 50K regardless of time slot. Could be a public holiday type money spinner.

    Agreed. We’re absolutely hopeless against North at Hobart.

    Even during a season when we win a flag and they cop the spoon, we still take 3 and a half qtrs to put them away at Blundstone.

    I live 500m from the GMHBA ground and never attend. Elitist club the Cats and any semblance of a reserved seat is $70 upwards. Many locals can't afford this. The crowd beahviour is appalling also. 

    They NEVER fill the stadium because of this. Despite all the new Grandstands. One of which faces straight into the afternoon sun.

    The upside this year though is instead of Us being scared of who we play twice, you can bet all other team fans will be looking at how many times they play the Dees instead.

    I haven't been back since that dark day

    We beat them three times in 2021 ... at the MCG, GMHBA and Optus. Time to get over the hurt.

    I think a fairly tough draw. But we are premiers so you can.t complain too much except on one thing.

    [censored] geelong. I absolutely hate the busterds. Now if you look at the geelong fixture they play 4 melbourne teams down there and guess who they are ? Us, bulldogs, saints and north. This is a disgrace. The day I see the filth, esenscum, richmond and hawthorn play down there in a season it will be my final orgasmatron. 

    It won't happen though.

    Completely agree. I see this game as our end of year %builder and we give them a flogging on our last home turf game

    I'm just surprised they gave us a home game against the Bombers. Can't remember the last time that happened. Do they even have a clash jumper?

    The two biggest commercial games for us are both away (tiges and Collingwood) and our home games are against interstate sides. There is no cash in for us after winning the flag. It's like they want to prove we are a second rate club who's numbers won't stack up.

    Disgusting and disrespectful draw for the club. 

    Don’t we take it in turns re the home side for both those games?

  • Quote

    Now the fixture is out, will the club update the premiership cup national tour dates, unless I missed it already?

    The two Friday night games with us against Ess is for the AFLW GF the next day to give it space.

    Lots of hand wringing on here. It’s a fixture so it will never be even. Raining night games for the sponsors which is great and I love the rolling fixture - keeps us always a chance to get good slots. 

    I will try to get down a few times.

    Lets get into it

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
