"Unbelievable!" -- Nick Davis leaves his mark on the 2005 semi final
I have a 2 1/2 trip home from the SCG and with the start time it makes a long night
Just following this up, now I have a little time:
2017
- Port (h)
- Bulldogs (a)
- Collingwood (h)
- WCE (a)
- Giants (h)
- Carlton (a)
2018
- WCE (a)
- Port (h)
- Giants (h)
- Bulldogs (a)
- Crows (h)
- Geelong (a)
So, 4 of first 6 games exactly the same. The two games which are different - Crows and Geelong instead of Collingwood and Carlton - are much harder. Reckon pass mark is 3 from 6. Anything more is a bonus.
Nah, who needs to bother winning any of the first six games...
The Richmond game at Etihad is strange plus it is on a Thursday night. We like playing there and I'm sure Richmond would prefer it to be at the MCG.
Disappointing that we only play 2 games at the MCG.
I noticed that the name of Kardinia Park is now GMHBA Stadium. Geelong change the name of their ground every couple of years!

The weirdest part of the fixture is in Round 3. Gold Coast play a home game against Fremantle in Perth due to the Commonwealth games. That's a neutral venue?

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it's time to pause and reflect... MT
PLAY TWICE: West Coast, Greater Western Sydney, Geelong, North Melbourne, Hawthorn.
BYE: Round 14
FIRST FOUR WEEKS: West Coast (a), Port Adelaide (h), GWS (h), Western Bulldogs (a).
LAST FOUR WEEKS: Collingwood (h), Melbourne (a), GWS (a), Hawthorn (h).
SIX-DAY BREAKS: Eight
SWANS v HAWKS: Two chances to see the best modern-day rivalry in footy � round eight at the MCG and round 23 at the SCG...... all this from afl.com.au Your club's fixture: The final verdict - AFL.com.au.... On that last one, here's an early (and maybe cocky) prediction. In the last H & A round we will cement a top two spot by smashing the Hawks at home and march into the finals as favourites for the flag .........gee I must say my 'medicine' is working well at the moment!
GC have got the two Perth sides seven days apart, they probably asked for that so they'll stay in Perth for the 9 days rather than travel to Perth twice in 7 days.
We have been blessed with interstate games only having to go to Perth for R1 and the Gabba for R10, none in Adelaide. 12 games in Sydney, 7 in Melbourne plus Geelong. Richmond at Etihad must be a typo, on what basis do Richmond have to play a game there, will be a lock out.

I have faith, but some of our toughest games of the year are in that lot. The WCE and Geelong away games are, with Richmond at Docklands (helpfully), our toughest road trips of the year. We'll be doing well to beat both GWS and Adelaide. We should beat Port and the Bulldogs, but they're not straightforward, noting we lost to both last year.
GWS at the Showground and I guess Hawthorn at the MCG are the only other games as tough as those.
