That is a lot of travelling for a bottom 6 team.
Two trips to Perth and Sydney at the SCG, thanks AFL.
I thought we might play Hawthorn in Tassie again.

That night it was. Dropped the pants and spread it wide did the Blues.

Nine Sunday games - I thought we were requesting less of those this year? Also the 3.20pm timeslot is terrible.

3.20 Sunday games are for the shit clubs. So about right really. Interesting to see which side they've gone all-in on Friday Nights with who will crash and burn spectacularly. Happens every year

Better than 4.40 pm

As long as the club underperforms we get punished with poor fixtures

Essendon* finished last and have only 6 Sunday games, most in the 1.10pm spot.

But we want them to be strong

They also get 8 prime time games on Channel 7 - Collingwood only get 5.

Seriously, when was the last time a wooden spooner was rewarded with MORE prime time free to air games.

Yeah - the reason we got Foxtel this year was because we had so many bloody Foxtel/shit timeslot games!

We can’t complain about an incredibly tough start for once (although all tough for us). Richmond, Melbourne, Essendon*, Gold Coast, Port and Pies in first 7 rounds (along with Sydney).

Tell me how we are underperforming? Very interested in how you're going to spin this.

Take note that we've removed 28 players from the worst list in the competition when you respond.

That is not a tough draw.
