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.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • 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.
