Which is exactly what should happen. They scheduled 5 potential finals teams on a Sunday for round 24 to maximize viewership. That’s on them. 

Play 3 games on Saturday or one on Sunday. I don’t care. You cannot possibly disadvantage a side with 11 days turnaround and have a 12 day concussion protocols. 

I believe in 2021 we did have a game on Sunday, 3.20 pm

It was when both EF were played down in Tasmania.

Nah we played on a Saturday night at Adelaide oval.

Why TF are final played on thursday nights to begin with!? 

it’s a work night with work in the morning. i know the afl get some extra tv money but it should be one game friday, 2 on Sat and one Sun arvo

Sunday arvo is a huge ratings slot so i really don’t get this thursday nonsense

Sunday means that whoever plays there will potentially have a short turnaround for the following week. 
 


Have I missed the point here?  The top 4 teams that loose in the first week, will end up with a longer break for the games the following weekend, which is the shorter turn around.  Given the first week has a bye isn’t that better for the top 4 teams than getting the shorter turn around first?

11 days is heaven for Dees players. We're the only club that doesnt get a mid season bye (9 days).Geelong get 13- 15 days.

12 is perfect. Dont care if the Colly Wobbles get an extra 2 days on us.  But why on a Thursday. 

Gil is so dumb he probably didnt realise that Sun to Thur week is 11 days 1 short for concussion break.

He would of heard Hodge  blasting away about it on radio.

It could create controversy= arousal for Gil and the Dills

Yeah and that’s why Brisbane should have the Thursday night game and not the Collingwood v Melbourne one

couldn’t they arrange it so the teams that could potentially play the next friday do not play the sunday game?

i may not be the smartest fella but i think it’s possible. then it’s only the difference of a 6 or 7 day break

what did they do before the pre finals bye? 3 Sat games?


 

 

If we get a concussion today then we should be protesting very loudly about playing on the thursday night.

The Hun is reporting that if we do play Toothless ferals it will be on Friday night!

So in other words, the journos such as Jon Ralph and Mark Robinson’s crew have no idea when the game will be played, and we should wait until later tonight’s announcement before we chuck a tanty.

I recall Drew Jones on Fox Sports was so adamant that todays Dees V Swans game was originally going to be scheduled Saturday 7:25 that he was willing to bet his AFL media accreditation  on it.

You guys think playing Thursday night is bad? 
Wait until Ticketek crashes on Tuesday morning.

Ralph just now saying finals schedule pretty much set in stone. Coll Thursday night, Carlton most likely Friday night, Saturday will include a day game and a twilight game so those teams that play on Saturday can be back in their beds by that night to ensure full 7 days recovery.

Sorry I meant the AFL not MFC. I think it was the GWS v Sydney EF?

For Collingwood members they will.

I am guessing Dees members will be on Wednesday.

I thought both club members tickets go on sale at the same time?

Just a guess, I think it was the Tuesday of bye week last year.

Thursday night is a FU to all families with kids. AFL know it means alot won't be able to make it but don't give a flying F. They'll fill the G and it'll rate of the charts either way

I hate attending Thursday night games. I'm always wrecked the next day at work

The shorter turnarounds should be for those who didn’t make the top 4

Absolutely.

  • 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.

    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?

  • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

    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.
