2010 FIXture LEAKS !!

[saintm]

With all games being shown live, without ads during the 1/4's (Like Foxsports)

We get all our free to air games here shown that way on the Southern Cross network.

[saintbrat]

here you go Eastern- the official leak

Lions/ vs Blues- April Fools day

[SainterK]

How appropriate....

[Eastern]

Official Date of release of the 2010 FIXture is 30 October. Once the clubs & the TV networks have it the leaks will quickly become a torrent.

The April Fools (Fev) blockbuster at the Gaba is interesting. The AFL condems Fevola's behaviour at the Brownlow, then almost immediately cashes in on it. Am I going over the top in thinking that this is Gross Hypocracy of the highest order?

Expect at least 1 leak per day from now on !!

[bobmurray]

Expect at least 1 leak per day from now on !!

I can achieve that .......easily....

[borderbarry]

Oh, you mean leak of information?? Sorry.

[Eastern]

********************BUMP*************************

Been a bit quiet. The AFL must have fixed where the leaks were coming from at their end. Plenty will come out next week, after clubs & networks comment on the 2010 FIXture they received last Friday or earlier this week !!

[saintbrat]

Clubs too busy delisting Eastern
AFL doing it's own leaking

Swans Vs Dogs twice for Barry's benefit

3 Anzac day Games, 2.30. 5.30 and 8.30

they are awaiting Luke's decision to make further changes OR NOT

[ace]

Preliminary fixture sent to clubs for comment.

3 Anzac day Games, 2.30. 5.30 and 8.30

AWESOME!!!

You would think that we would be one of the lucky teams to get one of those games

onluy if we wish to go to Aurora or the Subiaco
[qute]the League will also ensure Collingwood and Essendon’s Anzac Day blockbuster – which next season falls on a Sunday – will be given a standalone slot.

Hawthorn and Fremantle are also likely to host matches on Anzac Day.

“With it being a Sunday we’ve been able to accommodate cleaning out that whole day by just having the Essendon-Collingwood game one-out in the 2.30pm slot, and then having a twilight fixture down in Tasmania when that game finishes,â€

Friday Geelong v St Kilda (MCG) 85,000

Saturday Western v Port Adelaide (Etihad) 36,000
Saturday Brisbane v Hawthorn (Gabba) 30,000
Saturday Adelaide v Fremantle (AAMI) 36,000

Sunday Sydney v Essendon (SCG) 30,000
Sunday Melbourne v North Melbourne (Etihad) 30,000
Sunday West Coast v Richmond (Subiaco) 36,000

Total Attendance: 368,000
Average Attendance: 46,000

Already been leaked that St Kilda will only play Geelong once, and it will be around the middle of the season !!

[Eastern]

So...................

The AFL is opposed to VIOLENCE on the field, yet is willing to CASH IN using the most VIOLENT person in the game (return games between Syd & WB involving B. Hall).

The AFL has a respect & responsibility policy, yet it organises a BLOCKBUSTER involving a person who is under a cloud over a sexual assault claim (Fevola v Carl, Thu before Easter. April Fools Day)

This would mean that the AFL has morals, but only until they are overtaken by the almighty dollar !!

Do you honestly believe what you have written. The draw was done weeks ago before the Hall deal was even done. Maybe we should dispand the AFL management and let it be run by the NRL as they seem to be going so well.

what the article states is: they will /did adjust and promote games as " big drawing" if they involve perceived rivalries- or involve players from either side which have swapped- ie Hall and Fevola-
Hall( Dogs) will met Swans twice

He said while meeting stakeholders’ requests was the League’s main aim, it also had the flexibility to gain maximum exposure for expected large-drawing games.
Recent trade week activity will result in several players facing their former clubs, but Fevola and Hall were clearly the highest-profile pair.

“If trades are big enough that they create a need or interest for a certain match-up to occur, we certainly accommodate that after it’s happened,â€

hmm...

Next year, correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe there WILL be a public holiday in Victoria, and possibly the whole country, on Monday 26 April.

There is a clause for a Monday public holiday if Anzac Day/Australia Day fall on a Sunday.

IF I am correct, then the a Sunday night slot on Anzac Day would be the equivalent to a normal Saturday night slot, and hence be a good one to get!

[Bernard Shakey]

3 games on Anzac Day, which is a Sunday next year.
Any on the Monday which is a holiday, at least in Victoria?
We always have 3 games on a Sunday.
Eddie can't be happy with sharing Anzac Day.

they the AFL obviously feel they can combat the "Magpie factor" with this statement

the League will also ensure Collingwood and Essendon’s Anzac Day blockbuster – which next season falls on a Sunday – will be given a standalone slot.

so not promising a Standalone 'DAY' but rather a standalone slot

working on getting the football community to not think of football being related to days but all in 'Time Slots"

Easy. Collingwood v Essendon at 2.10, a game in Perth starting at 5.10 and a 'Sunday Night' fixture at the Dome.

carlton wont play collingwood round 1
we wont play cats round 1
if brisbane are going to have a home game rd 1 it will be against an interstate team (chances are its wce) but i doubt they will seeing as they have a home game rd 2.
melbourne v north melbourne is fine by me, but fat chance they will get 30,000
i doubt they would have wce v rich round 1 at subi seeing as it was rd 22 this year at subi.

my round 1:

Thursday night
Carlton v Richmond MCG 61,000
Friday night
Adelaide v Doggies Aami 39,000
Saturday
Essendon vs Brisbane Etihad 34,000
Sydney vs Fremantle SCG 25,000
Saturday night
Hawthorn vs St. Kilda MCG 55,000
WCE vs Brisbane Subiaco 34,000
Sunday
Collingwood vs Geelong MCG 68,000

You got Brisbane twice in that fixture.

Brisbane V. West Coast on the Saturday night at the Gabba has been locked in for weeks. In addition, the Lions play on the Thursday night after (Easter Thursday V. Carlton- round 2) - so we can't travel round one.
