2007 fixture rumours

[meltiger]

What are people hearing leaking so far about their draws?


Someone on PRE just posted we have 5 interstate trips this year, including R7 & R8 @ AAMI!!


Two weeks in a row sitting amongst a stadium full of backward hicks from feral city :crazy:

 

[Red Bear]

Im hoping Essendon vs one of Carlton, Collingwood, Richmond or Hawthorn in rd 22 to send off Hirdy (and quite possibly sheedy) And Bombers vs Sydney at SCG/Telstra

 

[lockyno1]

Bears, Essendon play at Subiaco in Round 22.

 

[meltiger]

About time they started sending teams who aren't going to play finals to Perth in R22

 

[lockyno1]

You guys will get your customary 9th!

 

[meltiger]

lol

Difference is, Richmond's graph is rising. Essendon's is plummeting

 

[lockyno1]

Essendon need 2-3 yrs of "bottoming out" to become better. I am not expecting miracles.

 

[meltiger]

You mean Essendon have decided to be sh*t & not try to win.


We're all looking forward to watching it, that I promise you

 

[lockyno1]

I mean, we need draft picks for the next 2-3 yrs. Hopefully carlton don't take gibbs this year!

 

[Collingwood Storm]

ive heard the pies are getting 15 games at the MCG, 2-3 @ TD and 4-5interstate....pies are playing melb, syd, ess, carl and tigs twice as well as 2 others

 

[meltiger]

Collingwood can't have more than 5 interstate because of the 15 MCG games, apparently only 9 are home games. I mean they are even playing Geelong as an away game on the MCG FFS. 9 home games there measn 2 still at Telstra, North being one of them I believe. So 15 MCG games, plus 2 Telstra games leaves only 5 at most interstate.


It would be good to see Collingwood get 5, might stop some of the whinging we all do about their draw.


If Geelong have to play home games on the MCG to be profitable they should be thrown out of the competition.

 

[lockyno1]

What the f..k are Geelong doing!

 

[music_2000]

I heard Sydney will play West Coast possibly at Telstra in round one or in the rivalry round but I'm not entirely sure when the game will feature

the Anzac day Collingwood Essendon match will take place as per usual despite hearing rumors West Coast and Swans would play on Anzac day. it would be a disaster due to the NRL anzac test

 

[lockyno1]

Sydney- West Coast is all but confirmed for round 1 at Telstra.

 

[meltiger]

Sydney should play Brisbane every year in the rivalry round.


Rivalry Round should be about the tradtional rivalries, not the 'now' rivalries.


The only thing close to traditional the Swans can come to is the old Sydney Brisbane hatred.

 

[CyberKev]

FFS Maria!

Will you network clowns hurry-up and get the final broadcasting arrangements clarified so we can see the actual draw rather than merely speculate on it! :x


(Clearly, patience is not readily among my list of personal characteristics!)

 

[Collingwood Storm]

the fixture gets released today.....i kno that the 3 swans games at TS this year are against the WCE, COLL and STK and that COLL starts the season against KANG and end it against ADEL
