Agree

Otherwise our opponents would have a 6-day-break, while Collingwood's would have an 8-day break.

Nothing wrong with it from our perspective maybe but the Filth would see it as a disadavantage so it won't happen!!

it will be saturday, there's no reason for it not to be.

I'm actually spewing it's not on the friday though as it would be the best birthday present I could ask for to get into the grand final.

It'll be Saturday night.


Life is very short and there's no time for fussing and fighting my friends.

Just said on SEN, depends on the winner/loser of Sydney / Dogs. If it's Sydney it will be in the day, to allow them to get home in the evening should they win. If it's the Dogs, it will be night.

Careful with that flight.

SEN 2pm news reports that if it's the Swans, the match will be Sat afternoon so that they can return home and prepare for GF if winners.

Will be one advantage if we play the Swans then...a full 7 day break for the GF.

You are probably right Karnaby, but they hate to be outdone when it comes to getting the advantage even when it won't make a scrap of difference. It upsets their equilibrium and finely honed sense of entitlement :D
