Prediction 2025 Fixture

[Keys]

This pretty much locks in top 8.

So excited

 

[javaguice]

Seems like the AFL didn't want this when eagles were competitive

All g now we are shit

They won't mind freo pencilling in another win. Not like they win premierships or anything

 

[Hap Hapablap]

Apparently ch7 is pushing for sunday night games.

Guessing the WA teams will cop the brunt of this.

I'd be spewing if half our home games are this timeslot.

Yeh they can get ****ed. Not going to a game at 440pm on a sunday

Sounds like we are the ones going to South. Not sure how they worked it but but seems weird. I’m sure if GC sold a game to Pies and Saints and one was at the G and the other day in the Bool, it would be the Pies playing at the G 100%.

I think it will only be us because we must be playing the Roos as a home game at Optus.

Especially because I reckon we I’ll be in the hills too for Gather Round

We have many more supporters outside Perth than Freo. They need the first game to sell out to build hype around the concept. West Coast can do that, no problem.

Sounds like we're getting the Bunbury games, so we still take a plane (or drive down) better than a proper away game I guess.

Hopefully if it continues past the three year contract we get the Optus games, when we're good again.

 

[Longwthebreeze]

Surely we get the home game v North at Optus and the away game at Bunbury.
Leaves Anchors with the one 'away' game v North at Optus.
Ticks a lot of the fixturing boxes of playing top/ middle/ bottom teams in your group twice...

My guess is the whole thing is contingent on the WA state gov giving North heaps of $$$ for one of the games to be in Bunbury.

We have plenty of supporters in Bunbury, and every other country town in WA compared to freo. Makes sense imo.

Doubt us or freo play them twice the next three seasons. Two games in WA against the same oppo would be overkill.

Imagine having to fly across the country twice in a year lol

They literally said the state gov't is chipping in 600K/yr as the bunbury game ties in with their tourism funding.

Your selling out that game no matter what.

I would’ve thought the bigger challenge would be to sell out the Optus game.

Sound like we will head south the first year and Freo the 2nd. Make a it a bit of a battle as to who get more fans to the Optus game, gets the 3rd year there.

 

[Elite Pete]

Bring on the South West Quokkas in 2030. Would be another less game flying

 

[Seadog]

They literally said the state gov't is chipping in 600mill as the bunbury game ties in with their tourism funding.

600 mill? Yeah I think you've jumped the shark there. NM hope to make 6 mill over 3 years. Even if the govt was funding it all which they aren't where is the other 594 mill going.

My cayman island account.

Meant to say 600k

594 million is King Nizzy's fee for setting this up

 

[OldBlueEagle]

LOL this is vAFL idea of fixture equalisation.

My initial thought but you never know around here.

 

[flamingEMBERS]

When do we expect the fixture to drop? Is it after the draft?

14th Nov

I hope they trial out back to back road games and stay there for the week.

Cut down on travel and get back to back home games would help a lot I reckon.

Im meh in sunday evening games, but I'm definitely not driving down to Bunbury for a game.

Why not? It's a pretty nice drive and not that far really. Good to support regional areas.

It would be a minimum of a day trip. Can't justify allocating that much time on a weekend to watch the footy. Especially if it's an additional cost game to members.

Only way it would happen is if I make a long weekend out of it.

There's an idea, do it over the WA Day long weekend.

There goes a few K.

 

[D-N-R]

With Foxtel getting exclusive rights to Saturday's broadcast I wonder if the AFL will try and drive subscriptions by playing certain teams on Saturdays? Particularly the states that get their home teams fta every week.

Going to the football game at optus is a day trip
