Why don't they save all the big clash games for the middle of the season when everything is plodding along. In April everyone is just happy for the football to be back on and will go to dud games. It also gives the AFL hype machine more time to pump them up.
Because by that stage Carlton Essendon and possibly one of Richmond/Collingwood supporters will have jumped off due to their teams being rubbish. Get them in early before the sides fall apart and both sets of supporters will turn up.
