I'd prefer us get Hawthorn.

 

[McIvor]

Shaping as another tough draw, with doubles up x against two of Sydney, Geelong, Port Adelaide, Hawthorn and GWS and a double up against Bulldogs, Carlton, Collingwood, Fremantle, Essendon and Saints and then a final double up against Suns as they finished in the bottom 6.

I could be wrong but we may get a second double up in that second group which is stacked with teams that you'd think will do well in 2025.

 

[Harris Specter]

Give us Hawks at the Gabba and 6 Melbourne games.

Pathetic Suns can't even get themselves into the middle 6 bracket so that we get a nice tasty bottom 6 matchup against another poor club.

Double ups against Port and Swans would be nice and easy... double ups against the Saints and Bombers would be even easier... Suns Meh.

Would of been good to unfurl the Premiership flag against the Pies but that wont be happening with Easter Thursday already locked in.

Wouldn't we get a double up with the SUNS anyway to have 2 QClashes?

When is the likely opening rnd week? Might canvas some early flight sales.

We are looking at flights for the last weekend in September 2025.

We had a terrible traveling fixture this season.
2x WA
3x SA
All the Melbourne game times were shit for travelling down there to watch a game
Hopefully we do a bit better on that front.

Yes and that's the issue; had they not crapped the bed late in the season like they always do and dropped in the bottom 6, we'd have had another double up against the bottom 6 like Tom said above, but now they'll be our only bottom six double up in 25.

 

[McIvor]

I hope we just get one of those simpler draws like we've previously had like

11 x Gabba
1 x Gold Coast
2 x SA (away against Port or Crows and then Gather Round)
1 X WA
6 x Melbourne games (minimum 3 at the MCG)
1 x Geelong in Gelong
1 x NSW
