Yep

Swans now have 1/2 an hour less preparation time for Opening Round on top of the 3 hours from the game time moving to 7pm because of the Sydney heat.

Judging from the flag could be Bulldogs but Dees an outside chance.

You're in. Last one.

I'll allow it because we already have a Schache question and I can slot it in with that one without mucking up my run sheet flow.

Thank you to all who have asked questions or posted comments. I'm going to cut it off here as I need to put together the run sheet for the boys. See you tonight at 8:30pm or catch the pod on your preferred app tomorrow.

I have no problem with the concept of Opening Round showcasing a couple of "blockbusters" in a non-footy state. They should have just called it Round 1 and just had 10 teams with a Bye and move on. It just makes it so confusing.

Can anyone tell me whether Verrell played all 4 quarters for Casey?

The Demons head up to Sydney to open the 2024 AFL Season against the Swans at the SCG. Who will debut for the Dees? Will Clarry be recalled to the team? How many players will make their debut in the Red and the Blue?
