Fixture 2025 AFL Fixture

Will be interesting to see if we stay in Adelaide for a week to play either Port or Adelaide like last year.


Heading out Friday, 1 game Sunday, and then a follow up game Friday or Saturday and then back.

I think we requested that last year and it didn’t pan out as we lost three games in a row. Not sure we put the request in again.

The two games in Adelaide were fine. We just lost both and should have beaten Carlton. The game after the trip was shocking.

Not sure it is good to get the Derby after two weeks away.

 

[Big Animal]

Don’t need to go to the Barossa for wine today that’s for sure

can we play in the Clare Valley next because I prefer their Reislings

 

[ubiquitous226]

Well I couldn't care less about where and who we play in Gather Round, however the farce that is Opening Round has continued.

Two weeks after Gather Round is the Len Hall game so we'll either have a second game in SA or the derby the week after gather round.

We'll find out Thursday.

Your right its a farce and an utter joke.

The idea of playing games in the northern states while the NRL are away in Vegas has merit especially after Brisbane won the flag but it's definitely unfair that those 8 teams get an extra bye.

Those 8 teams should ALL get an extra interstate trip

Just everyone play in that round but those Northern States get a home game. Its only 4 games out of 9.

FMD it isn't hard.

Or just give the 8 teams all the week off Rd 1 and then they play another team from that group Rd 2 so it is fair.

Carlton - we don't want to play in Gather Round, it effects our already lack of travel

AFL - ok, we'll listen and action this.

Fremantle - we want.....

AFL - shut up, you take what you get

Exactly - it fell on a long weekend last year, can still do each of those northern games as a standalone fixture Thursday through to Saturday night, then condense the other 4 games on Sunday and Monday.
Would give exactly the same exposure to the northern clubs and not completely bigger up the remaining fixture for everyone else.

I don't mind the Barossa game if only that means we play North at Optus. Playing at both Barossa and Bunbury would suck.

 

[Spirit Level]

Barossa should 100% mean we don't get shipped down to Bunbury or over to Inceston.

Won't be the case though

 

[BStaff17]

Our record at Adelaide oval is shit I am not fussed about playing in the Barossa.

As long as the lads stay of the wine pre-game

Good news then!

Richmond for gather round and North at Optus isn’t a bad start for our fixture

Playing norf at Optus while the toast have to go to Bunbury, per Rhino.

 

[freodog]

This is an unbelievably good deal for North Melbourne. You would expect they would normally play an away game in Perth.

If they don't have to play another away game in Perth they effectively get $2.5m for playing one home game in Bunbury.

 

[serial_thrilla]

A North ITK claims that it'll be Rounds 13 & 14.

 

[Taylor]

I remember Geelong staying in Perth for the time between their games against WC and Freo, their side was right out of their rhythm by the second game and didn't perform well.

In 2026 we will go to Bunbury i believe so it will be rotational.

Which i think is probably fair tbh.

 

[Waterhouzin]

Strange they’d have the Bunbury game on a Sunday. If it’s a Saturday then a huge number of people would do a road trip, stay overnight, have beers at the game etc etc.
On a Sunday, given Monday is a work day, most will likely drive down for the game then drive home, no beers at the game, no spending in the local economy.
Makes zero sense and so easy to switch them around.

We get North on their second week here, they're gonna be wrecked.

Is it too soon to start talking about a percentage booster? Jinxed
