    We definitely play GWS twice, we'll almost certainly play Hawthorn twice to maximise the Buddy factor.

    Also, we WON'T be playing St Kilda in NZ for ANZAC Day, Brisbane have been drawn against them for 2014.

    Yeah, it wasn't in the script for us to beat ST Kilda in NZ, so the AFL is sending a weaker team next year so the Saints have some chance of winning.

    So annoying (for once) the game isn't at ANZ - though I guess going by "real" ie non-discounted ticket sales, Skoda may be the right sized stadium for the opening match.

    Having H Shaw, Jed, Mummy on the other side though will make the game more interesting than normal! I do like Thomas Bugg though (apart from some grubby indiscretion he had last year v the Swans) and Jeremy Cameron. Oh and Callan Ward

    This suggests we don't play Geelong twice, so shouldn't have a trip to that awful @@@@@@hole of a stadium next year (and hopefully 5 proper Melbourne games again!)

    What makes you so sure the one game we'll have against them will be at the SCG?

    Just assuming its our turn to host (could be anz of course) as it seems to be one tie (unlike for example freo or west coast who we don't rotate evenly home and away) that goes home/away in proper order, at least the last few years.

    Not sure how you work out whose turn it is to host given we've played each other twice every year since 2008.
