We're playing the Swans in Round 10 at the SCG.

About time we played the Swans in Sydney.

 

[manicmagpie]

So at last count we already know:

Round 1 v Geelong Fri
Round 2 v Richmond Thu
Round 5 v Brisbane (gabba) Thu
Round 6 v Essendon Thu
Round 10 v Sydney (scg) Fri
Round 13 v Melbourne Mon

 

[Visions]

Must be predicting a bumper ski season next year, so that Melbourne members don’t have to worry about not coming to the game.

 

[Collingwood 4 eternity]

Round 3 Collingwood v West Coast MCG , 6th April

Fantastic and long overdue. For the first time since the 2010 draw I'll get to a Queen's birthday match. Bugger supporting other clubs financially.

Serves them right for pinching Steven May

I went to my first one since 2014 this year and it was very good game, we won. Easily.

WC twice will be tough.

Is Gaff back Round 3?

 

[ash84]

I’m hoping for an interstate trip about halfway through the season, have already done Adelaide Oval, thinking either Perth or Gold Coast. Anybody been to the new stadium over in Perth? Heard Gold Coast is a great place to watch footy too

New stadium is great, got nothing on the MCG of course, but i couldn't fault it. Easy to get to and from with free public transport.

Also delayed karma for booing an injured Alan Didak from the field in 2012.

I've never been to Brisbane, so I'm gonna go to this game. I've already booked an apartment across the street from the Gabba . I figure I'll get in early.

So apparently our first 2 games are against Geelong and Richmond at the the G.

How good is that?

I don't live in Melb but thinking of moving down just for this.

 

[soreplums]

Yep.

Of course he is

 

[Kirby]

Jeez, looking at the proposed draw we're going to find out how good we are pretty early in the season.

Jeez, looking at the proposed draw we're going to find out how good we are pretty early in the season.

22 games is what counts; I don’t fear the opposition let them fear us.

All works out.

Though your point is right, early on can cause great mischief one way or other.

WC twice will be tough.

For them or us?
