I think everyone on here actually loves you Bedders, you're like our resident Grampa Simpson.

Lee Spurr is absolutely on the money here.

 
The AFL fixture is tipped to be released on Thursday November 16, with a Gather Round in South Australia already locked in for Thursday, April 4 through to Sunday, April 7.

The Round Zero plan is reported to run from March 8-10 while Round 1 would be comprised of nine games and take place from March 14-17.
 
I actually hate the whole idea.

Split rounds annoy me enough during the bye rounds.
Yeah it's annoying, but if they can just avoid stupid names and stick to rounds 1, 2, 3, 4 etc. then you can avoid confusing situations where you have to say sentences like, "(insert name) played the first five games of the season before getting injured in round 4."

As a programmer, I am massively in favor of all indexes, counting and other ordered lists to start at 0.

This insanity of 1 being the first has to stop.

It's not a massive issue really , it's a great idea by the AFL
 
I think the concept is a great idea but the name is absurd. Absolutely no reason for it to not be called round 1.

I thought this was a joke.

Are they seriously calling it Round 0?

I don't think it is even a great idea. It is just pandering to the big Vic clubs. Another VFL superlative. It's for points, it's Round 1.

Sorry, the concept of the round is fine by me, but you can't have your "Block Buster Season Opener" for Carlton/Richmond/Collingwood/Essendon in Round 2 just because.
