FIXture leaks/whispers !!

Post: # 1268509Post Eastern »

The FIXture is due out towards the end of October, but the AFL and some of the clubs start letting little bits n' pieces out from about this time each year.

There is one DEFINITE already and that's the Round 4 ANZAC Day clash in NZ v Sydney. I believe it's a Fox Footy game and will be broadcast Live (?5.15pm start. Melb Time).

Anything else out there yet? !!


NEW scarf signature (hopefully with correct spelling) will be here as soon as it arrives !!

They will set it up so they both play gold coast and gws in the first 2 weeks so the media can install them as equeal flag favorites going into round 3

Good chance of St.Kilda v Essendon in Round 1 at Etihad. i'm sure the AFL will want to cash in on Saints v Goddard.

More likely to be at the MCG and a Bombers home match.

I hope so - only played them once at the MCG in the last ten years - that's deplorable!

It should be early in the year... AFL wouldn't want to risk Goddard missing the game due to an essendon soft tissue injury (or suspension)...

Still next to nothing !!

My guess is the AFL believe they are getting enough media with the Trade/Free Agency and don't have to leak anything just yet !!

With ANZAC day being the Thursday, you can almost guarantee that in the week before we will play the Thursday or Friday night and against Essendon or Collingwood (Sydney will play the team we don't).

Very sound logic, Ash. Therefore, there's no chance of it happening.

It will be on Fox no matter what Greg Westaway said. All Ch 7's resources will be at the MCG for the Coll v Ess cash printing comp !!

Think he was joking. Anyway it doesnt matter if we have a 5 day break before the NZ game or a 6 day break as long as the Swans have the same.

A 98 day break would be a bit much :shock: :shock:

Saints apparently have 15 6 day breaks with the league disappointed they couldn't grant more to the perfect season of 6 day breaks in...

All for a good cause - Magpie charity
