Our FIRST day game in Melbourne this season!
Talk about a disgraceful FIXture.....having to wait until round 16 to play your first day game in Melbourne!
I just hope next season we get a few less twilighters and a few more 2.10 and 1.10 starts.
To me, the fact the match is a day game is almost as exciting a prospect as who and where we are playing.

I agree with you on that....with no IQ on my Foxtel I'm gonna have to wait till Sunday morning to watch game!ThePunter wrote:Speaking as someone who is associated with a local footy team, the fewer Saturday afternoon games the better.
Actually, it probably has more to do with us playing our home games at Etihad, with it's attractiveness as a venue for night football in winter, and our lack of MCG games full stop.

5 prelims in 7 years. 40 wins from 49 games.
2009 and 2010 were 2 of the 5 best years ever by the St.Kilda FC.
Thanks for all your efforts Saints.

On a serious note, we very rarely play games with the red Sherrin.

I think, quite seriously, that the wind will hinder us much more than the pigment on the leather. At least it will hinder tall forwards.battye wrote:On a serious note, we very rarely play games with the red Sherrin.
*Allegedly.
Bring back Lucky Burgers, and nobody gets hurt.

Sorry satchmo, yes I do agree with you - my comment was lighthearted in response to:satchmo wrote:I think, quite seriously, that the wind will hinder us much more than the pigment on the leather. At least it will hinder tall forwards

If we are good enough we should be able to win it anywhere anytime!
The time and location of the match is more an issue for us supporters than the players IMO...
Personally I love a Friday or Saturday night game... great excuse to have a few drinks. Sundays are hard work - or more to the point work is the next day!!
