That was just the second time that they've played us at the MCG in a decade.

Read a rumour we play Brisbane round 1.
Interesting we will likely play them off a way shorter break.

Doubt the AFL would move the Easter clash in R6.

Would love to get the tigers early and have them twice to help our percentage for the year, something we always seem to lack in come the end of the year so a couple of easy kills could be the difference come the pointy end..
Wishful thinking tho I would assume Melbourne and Adelaide/West Coast will be our double ups from the bottom 6 bracket

The Bulldogs will host a game against us at the MCG in Round 2, according to the AFL website.

Brisbane (first VFL game Fitzroy), Melbourne (first flag) or Sydney (second flag) would make more historical sense. None would see the dollars or crowd numbers though.

Decent guess, I think it’ll be either a home game vs Cats or the rumour that we are playing Brisbane.

Would have made more sense for the Dogs to play Essendon. There is a lot of hatred towards the rich northern neighbours in the inner West.
Gold Coast first home game would be a bit of a fizzer. Hoping we have a team that can draw a big crowd or kick start things.
Whateley has just announced we're playing Carlton in round 4 on a Thursday night, Brisbane in Brisbane in round 6 and also have Fremantle in Perth before the bye in round 9.
So, in our first 6 or 7 games we will have GWS, Dogs, Carlton, Brisbane and Sydney.

We’re probably better off playing the teams that played finals in 2024 early in the season when they’re still adjusting to a shorter pre-season. There might be some slow starters in that group, like us and Brisbane this year.
Maybe.
The thing I'm most interested in is how seriously the AFL treats the weighted fixture.
That, or round 1
