Anyone else concerned that the club hasn't started updating the 2024 membership tally? Are we that far behind compared to last year?

Well done mate, you keep making my point about being unable to take any criticism. You choose to attack me every time I post and yet all you are is an apologist for everything that goes wrong. If you think nothing is wrong, you're a fool. Go and look at the last two years, our off-field is no good and unstable clubs do not win flags.

No compensation is required other than making sure we dont have to pay him out for the next 4 years. Assume common sense will prevail with that one tho

I expect that when criticism comes our way that our supporters do not go down the Collingwood/Richmond supporter pathway of being supportive in an obnoxious way. I am allowed to be disgusted in the way this off season has gone but i still plan on going to over 20 games to support them. You are allowed to proud of the club but also cross with how the last two seasons have gone imo.

So many people on here just cannot accept any criticism ofour club. We have been the biggest disappointment since the flag and this year looks like its been derailed before we even begin.

They've hardly shot themselves in the foot, all the games are sold out and nearly every hotel is full.

Booked our hotel the day they announced the dates and will be driving so dont need to deal with airfares

Hello all, I have 4 extra tickets for Gather Round for the Adelaide v Melbourne game. They are in bay 302, category 1 seats with a cost price of $160 each as part of the 4 day pass. I ended up getting seats in Melbourne bay as well so am looking to offload the 4 seats in 302. Happy to discuss pricing but would like to try and get around $100 per ticket to try and recoup some losses. Would very much prefer they go to A Melbourne supporter before I got to an Adelaide forum. The game is sold out.

Doubt we would miss the 8, but if we can't win a final the coach can go.

Every single one of those areas Malvern, Caulfield, Brighton, Toorak, Sandy etc all still voted liberal last year. The teals are a different matter at the federal level because Goldstein and Kooyong both include much lower income areas.

Our actual base of supporters still make up the highest percentage in the MCC and the least in the AFL reserve and that should tell you enough.

Governments give money to areas where their voters reside. We are the most labor state in the country and our club is the most liberal (from a supporter base) in the state. So, it makes sense that labor governments throw money at the likes of Hawthorn and areas like Geelong for funding.

Good to see the club is consistent across the board.

Its becuse the club havent loaded it in, its in the AFL fixture

Richmond and Hawthorn going down to the Cattery

Gold Coast, not Darwin

14 games at the G, most we have had there in forever. Double ups are fine, Port and the Dogs to slide hopefully, Freo and West coast are good and then need to match it with Collingwood and Brisbane.

Its a good fixture.

It’s so disappointing that all our fans seem to do is complain about the fixture on here. when we were getting Saturday and Sunday games in the arvo or twighligjt all people would do is cry for more Friday night exposure. Now that we get Thursday/Fridays/opening games/ multiple public holidays, all people seem to do is complain. We should be happy our team has success and is put in prime time slots. We should not be finding excuses to not watch the team we’ve all waited for decades to become good. Bring on March 7.

Stop winging, we open the season and open gather round (that Adelaide-Carlton game was electric last year). Its great exposure for the club. I have already booked my tickets for both. And we absolutely want west coast in Perth again because why would you want to waste home ground advantage on them? Being dudded is all relative based on who is actually good during the season as opposed to who you think will be good 5 months before the season starts.

Look it up in google, articles everywhere about it. Basically we are playing Sydney in Sydney on Sunday March 10 whilst the nrl are in Vegas. 3 other games in nsw and qld as well

Why are you complaining about the Gabba and SCG? The fixture has never been about playing every interstate team at their ground in alternating years. Sydney have played us at the G every year since 2011 except 2016.

nah that article said our first MCG game would be against the dogs, not our first game of the year

I would fully expect that we play Richmond on the Wednesday night for Anzac Eve and follow up with a Thursday night trip down to Geelong on the next day.

Yep expect that: We will likely play Carlton and Collingwood twice which would be 3 Friday nights and 1 Monday We want front ended interstate trips so that the back end of the season has less travel and more games at the G/Marvel.
