Round 24 times still not out despite it being only 18 days away. Good luck trying to plan a trip up to Sydney within that timeframe.

Given Sydney are becoming more relevant by the week, I think we can almost rule out the Saturday afternoon time slot which is increasingly becoming the time slot for dud games.

Saturday night or Sunday the most likely. We play Sunday and Sydney play the Saturday the prior week. 

 

utterly ridiculous that its less than 3 weeks to the last round and we dont have a fixture. 
it should have been out in november last year, but 3 weeks is completely unacceptable.

Sydney and Melbourne both believe that their game will either be Saturday afternoon or evening.

Great, so another 6 day break plus travel.

FMD I hate the AFL.

Hold the phone. Tommy is now saying a Sunday Afternoon game is a lock.

 

Oooh that would be ideal. Mainly because I’ll be able to watch it up in QLD while I drink a cocktail pool side. 
If we lose I’ll just throw myself and the laptop in the pool 😂

I have a family function on the Saturday night so I will not be able to watch a minute if it is on then. Sunday is perfect for me as I can watch in peace and quiet whilst nursing a hangover.

Is there still a bye before first finals week?

There is indeed

 

Sunday 3:20pm vs Sydney. Probs originally planned for the Buddy Show on Saturday night but since his retirement was immediate, now it’ll probably just be a pre-match send-off with all the pomp and pageantry it deserves. We’ll still rain on their parade, though. ❤️💙

But we won’t… therefore your good self and your laptop will remain dry as a bone. 😁

Yep. Locked in.

We should be on the Saturday since a top 4 team 

Doesn't really matter with a week off between finals.

I prefer a 7 day break between round 23 and round 24 and I think so would the club. 

Chances are we finish 2nd or 3rd and therefore got the Saturday night game in week 1 of finals, with 1 v 4 generally the Friday night?

Also gets us FTA exposure again. 

Sat arvo has become the AFL’s graveyard slot. Sunday arvo is now more prestigious. Collingwood played a stack of Sunday games earlier this year.

I don't think people want Saturday afternoon anymore.

Kids sports, work etc. Sunday afternoon is a better timeslot for families IMO.

Good result given we've avoided a 6 day break and the club gets some more FTA exposure.

Now that the date has been announced, anyone have an idea when tickets will go on sale, or if the club has an allocation that they have available to on sell?

 

EDIT - tickets go on sale Tue Aug 15.

Congratulations to the AFL for managing to organise 9 games with only 2 weeks left before the round is played.

Thank goodness they did not screw us in the process and give us a short break AND travel all in one. It pays to be a good side!

Oh great...

Hope 2nd spot is not still on the line on late Sunday afternoon

thats what the afl will be hoping for. everyone watch the live ladder as sydney try to make it and we have to win by 4 goals to finish 2nd. or ssome such

Really? My son's junior football is on Sunday, and the older teams are playing after lunch.

I'd much rather Saturday afternoon games, especially when you don't get home until after 7pm on a Sunday night after a 3:20 game.

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • VOTES: Richmond

    Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
