Ok, I think three twilight matches is still quite alot...but with all the Friday night footy I am willing to look over it I guess.

Port North Rich Adel the last 4 weeks is a pretty good run home though, I am happy with that!

Monday night footy against Carlton, interesting, given our blockbuster against them this season they are expecting it to be a big drawcard.

So round 22 can be adjusted? It's interesting that both Saints and Geelong will be interstate in round 22...

interstate round 1 and 22 is disapointing but made up with the run home and start to the season. No reason why we can't got top four with that draw.

Last 5 games
Essendon - Etihad
Port Adelaide - Etihad
North Melbourne - Etihad
Richmond - Etihad
Adelaide - AAMI

Nice run home except that Adelaide at AAMI to finish could be real hard.

Is anybody else getting a 12:00am start for the Round 22 match at AAMI?

We must be trying to get the TV ratings in the US up a bit.

Apart from the usual, we travel 6 times interstate and Collingwood only travel 4 and the AFL will use the excuse "But that's what the Clubs have requested" (I have never understood the reason the clubs based outside Melbourne don't request a home Collingwood game) I think we have a reasonably good draw.


I am still hurting from 71;
my gut churns thinking of 97;
2009 was agony,
2010a was a pleasure to watch only to be devastated by 2010 b.
It hurts barracking for the Saints

Thats due to the 'floating' final round... The AFL will nominate dates and times as the round approaches

St Kilda CEO Michael Nettlefold said, “Clearly there is demand for Saints footy and we are very pleased this has been reflected in next year’s fixture.

“We believe the considerable shift to seven Friday night games is appropriate recognition of the performance of the team in making the preliminary final in 2008 and the grand final in 2009.â€

That's 12 Noon
12PM is midnight

But why midday on a Friday!

Because all round 22 games are showing mid-day Friday.- The match times are TO BE ANNOUNCED LATER

Beg to differ

No complaints about the draw, 7 Friday nights is a great result

St Kilda
ST KILDA will become accustomed to the Friday night lights in 2010, with last season's runner-up to play seven of its home and away games in the prime time spot.

But the Saints will not open the season against its September conquerors Geelong, after the AFL opted against its recent practice of fixturing the grand final rematch for round one.

Instead, St Kilda will head to ANZ Stadium to take on the Sydney Swans in what will be the club’s one and only away game in the opening month of the season.

Saints’ fans will have to wait until at least round 13 to avenge the grand final loss to Geelong, with the two sides set to meet in a blockbuster at the MCG in week two of the split round. It will be the only time the reigning grand finalists meet in the minor rounds.

The Saints will also meet preliminary finalists the Western Bulldogs just once, but will come up against Collingwood twice.

Benny Gale clearly hasnt got as much clout as he thought he has lol..he asked for that to be changed to a MCG game

Much as I love home games at Etihad the MCG home game against the Cats is exciting

7 Friday night games is great..now we just need farking Ch 7 to show the AAMI ones live!

16 Night games is fantastic exposure for sponsors so the Commercial arm of the Club will be rapt

Really not much to whinge about at all..one more (the Richmond one) game at the G would have be nice but overall the positives far outweigh the negatives IMO

Ummm, not that it is that important but 12am is midnight, 12pm is midday.

I'm a bit annoyed that we play interstate in Round 22. Maybe our spot on the ladder will be determined by then. Still wouldn't want to flirt with form though.

I would probably include PA and Ess in borderline as well.
