[Howard Littlejohn]

Most likely Thursday March 19 I would’ve thought?

Counting back from the last Saturday in September a couple of days ago, I think that's what I got.
Easter Show doesn't start until 3 April, so maybe GWS could get a rare round one game in Sydney next year.

 

[Espe]

One problem North will play Essendon on Good Friday maybe your club can play Essendon in Round 1 for the inaugural cheats cup since there are Drug Cheats and you are Draft Cheats and your club to win by a goal with the big 3 back for your club Scully 3 votes Watts 2 votes Trengrove 1 vote

At least try and construct a coherent sentence before you decide to be edgy.

 

[Coolangatta]

Not going to do that, but I'd like to see the Pies vs. GWS Friday night at the G; a PF loss avengence chance. I would also like to see the Eagles have a chance to avenge their SF loss by playing the Cats at home.

Alternatively, the Eagles vs. Hawthorn in Perth would be interesting - a chance for the Eagles to make amends for the game that cost them a top-four spot. If this is the case, a top of the table clash between Geelong and Brissy in Geelong as an alternative to the Cats playing the Eagles away could be a cracker.

I would like to see Brad Hill against his old side at Marvel. Saints-Freo game this year was a thriller.

North-Bulldogs at Marvel would be a good game.

Saturday March 21
North Melbourne vs. Fremantle, Hobart, 1:45pm (FOX)	New coach v New coach

Geelong Cats vs. West Coast Eagles, GMHBA, 7:20pm (CH7/FOX)	Kelly vs. Cats
Gold Coast Suns vs. Melbourne, Metricon, 7:40pm (FOX)	Bottom of the table clash
Sunday March 22
Western Bulldogs vs. St Kilda, Marvel, 1:10pm (FOX)	High expectations for both sides
Hawthorn vs. Collingwood, MCG, 3:20pm (CH7/FOX)	Blockbuster match-up

Richmond unfurl flag to kick off the season, Tim Kelly, Joe Daniher, Josh Bruce all potentially playing against former sides. All arguably exciting match ups bar the Dees-Suns game.

Eagles won’t play away Round 1, besides both WA teams won’t be away haha!

Venue: Dark Side of the moon, midnight.

I like it, good to see Brisse up there on a Friday night. I’m happy to travel to Adelaide to play the power, although it’d never happen because we play them in China and lord knows how the AFL pay that our home game.

 

[Gosaints12]

Freemantle will get a lot of sunday 3.20 games (5.20 eastern). Get used to it.

Saints will too, don’t worry could support the EPL and have to stay up till 3 in the morning to watch the game.

 

[Sparkle]

Why do we have to play Collingwood?

Someone has to

 

[Carltonchef]

Round 1
West Coast v Fremantle

Brisbane Lions v Auskick sons (the gold coast suns players/ coaching staffwill let their sons play because you have to let little kids win and you can't really tackle them)

Sydney v Greater Western Sydney
Hawthorn v Geelong
Essendon vs Richmond ( Essendon ask to play in Sydney instead of the MCG just to piss off the Richmond )
Carlton vs Collingwood
Adelaide vs Port Adelaide
Melbourne vs North Melbourne
Saint Kilda vs westen Bulldogs

If GWS are at "home" in Round 1 it would have to be at Manuka , as the Showgrounds are out of action with the Easter Show.

 

[TimothyJ23]

If GWS are at "home" in Round 1 it would have to be at Manuka , as the Showgrounds are out of action with the Easter Show.

I actually checked that before posting and the RES isn't on until 3 April. March 22 would allow plenty of time to convert the ground.

 

[caloschwaby]

It hasn’t been Telstra Dome in about 15 years, you banana.

Reminds me of those people who still call Brisbane the "Bears". FFS they've been the Lions for over twice as long of a timespan.

 

[Hank Scorpion]

Sucks that we almost always seem to get the first WA home game on a Sunday afternoon - would love the Eagles to get better match-up & timeslot otherwise.

Thursday
Richmond v Carlton (MCG)

Friday
Essendon v GWS (Docklands)

Saturday
Geelong v Fremantle (KP)
Port v Brisbane Lions (AO)
Hawthorn v Collingwood (MCG)
GCS v Adelaide (Carrara)

Sunday
Sydney v Bulldogs (SCG)
Melbourne v North Melbourne (MCG)
WC Eagles v St Kilda (Perth)
