You would have said that this year too.

and we haven't always won convincingly up there

Easter Saturday will be a big day of footy. The Western Bulldogs and the Brisbane Lions have been fixtured to meet in an afternoon game at Etihad Stadium, with Gold Coast then hosting St Kilda at Metricon Stadium.

two years in a row we are playing first round interstate. great.

[remboy]

Is there any chance that one year we'll get to play round one at home against a Victorian side?

will depend on the end of the year as compromise

we also miss out on it being the holiday weekend when families may be in Vic and would poassibly go to the football.

More likely they will be away and wont go to the footy. And what does the first statement mean?

[mr six o'clock]

I think the worst thing is , as its easter time the air fares and accomodation will be expensive !

[Saintersss]

Thread has a bit of de ja vu about it.

[OneEyedSainter77]

I'm looking at it from a positive perspective.

Assuming we get six or seven interstate trips (any more is too much - in fact even seven is too much in my opinion) this leaves only another three or possibly FOUR more after round five. Which means in our last seventeen games, at least thirteen will be in Melbourne. (or Geelong - I really think we're going there next year)

As long as we are in melb rounds 2 and 6, I'll be happy.

When was the last time fixture leaks revealed five st Kilda rounds before it was released?

That’s what Brett Ratten thought when his team thought they can win by 100+ & move into 8.

Rest is as they say history.
