Not sure when it will be released, but we will be playing Hawthorn in Round 1. Great news given that they will be without Crawford, Hodge and Lewis (all suspended).

Good point there deeboy. It is Twilight match on Easter Sunday. Shame I won't be able to go away- my footy is more important!

now that judd is a blue expect andrew d and crew to set up a lovely little draw that favors carlton no end while we get shafted again.

[Gorgoroth 12,950]

Agree, carlton will play pies, dons, west coast, richmond twice without a doubt

i'll be happy if we don't have to play Geelong at Shithole Stadium

[Bring-Back-Powell 14,820]

Be nice if we get 10 home games in VIC, now that our Brisbane home game has been cancelled.

Wouldn't mine playing the Lions at the G'. Sure to be quite spicy.

Hopefully we play the majority of our games on either Saturday or Sunday, like we did this year.

It makes it much easier with work rosters (hopefully we play mostly Saturdays because I earn double-time on Sunday... keep that in mind Mr.D )

I was disgusted with our draw last year. We seemed to have a mortgage on Sunday games and only 1 Saturday afternoon game.

[Demons 32 235]

God I hate day games. Always hung over.

I particulary despise Sunday games. They suck so bad.

Friday, Sat or Sat night is all good.

Sunday is shithouse.

Solution:

Get off the [censored] the night before a game

I think it's good to play most games on the same day, as it actually does make it easier for people to plan around and turn up to games. Especially students like myself who have to work weekends, or parents who want to take their kids to sport or something similar on weekends.

Saturday is obviously a bit better for the club in terms of exposure and crowd numbers and all that, but given that we finished 14th and given that we are... well... Melbourne, we'll probably get suck with mostly Sunday games again.

As long as we don't have to play in Geelong, or have back to back interstate trips, or an interstate match in Round 22, I'll be happy.

Can't wait to play Carlton. Hopefully we remind Judd that money doesn't buy success.

To be honest we got a pretty good draw this year, we were just too [censored] to take advantage of all the MCG games we had early in the year.

agreed. we just wasted them games

[Rogue 585]

It's very disappointing we have to play at TD, and 'twilight' Sunday games are pretty poor.

[Golden Monkey 1]

In a bout of selfishness; I hope we play every game on friday night. As I work all day Saturday and Sunday i can only get to friday night games.

I agree. It's not the crappiness of our draw that pisses me off, its the great draws of other clubs (need I mention them). Fairness for the rest of the competition would be nice.
