Pretty happy with that draw. Plenty of Saturday night games. Had already booked flights to a few but now I can sit down today and book a heap more

Haven't looked through the draw in much detail, but noticed St Kilda are again drawn to play here twice. Good for me, but 8 visits in 4 years doesn't seem right. Have played Adelaide once in Melb during that time, and Port not at all.

Love the amount of thursday, friday and saturday night games the crows have. but my liver might not like it.

WCE have a 5 day turnaround after playing Richmond at MCG they host Sydney at Domain...that's gonna be a tough ask. Might of been nice of the AFL to schedule a bottom 8 opponent for the return leg.

We get one Thursday night, one Friday night, 3 twilight Saturday and 2 Saturday night games at AO.

There's about $1000 gone.

Love the twilight Saturday games, 4:05 Saturday, perfect I reckon.

Also we play Port and Hawks once each, in rounds 22 and 23 respectively... love the fixturing genius...

Crazy huh. We get Carlton and Your dogs round 22 and 23. Yep the only time we play both sides. The lack of common sense is astounding!

Looks like we'll stay awake on Friday nights now!

ADELAIDE
Good news: Five Friday night games put the Crows in the spotlight.
Bad news: Seven six-day breaks aren’t ideal.

BRISBANE LIONS
Good news: After a brutal start to last season, the Lions have at least three potentially winnable games in the first month.
Bad news: No Friday night action for the lowly Lions, but that’s hardly a surprise.

CARLTON
Good news: 10 matches at the MCG and an increase in Saturday afternoon and night games. First five weeks look favourable.
Bad news: No home game against Collingwood for the first time will cost the Blues a pretty penny.

COLLINGWOOD
Good news: The Pies don’t have to wait long to see Travis Cloke as they host the Dogs in R1.
Bad news: This is a seriously tough fixture. Two trips to Sydney in the first seven weeks is brutal.

ESSENDON
Good news: Pretty much everything. Adelaide the only top six side it plays twice.
Bad news: The Bombers travel six times during the season, including three times in the first seven rounds.

FREMANTLE
Good news: Five home games in opening seven rounds provides opportunity for a fast start.
Bad news: The Dockers are one of four sides not to feature on Friday Night.

GEELONG
Good news: Opening the new Brownlow Stand at Simonds Stadium against the Dogs in R9.
Bad news: Eight six-day breaks, which is the equal most of any club. Only seven games in Geelong.

GOLD COAST
Good news: Hosts all the powerhouse Victorian clubs in one season for the first time. A league-low two six-day breaks.
Bad news: Tough first eight rounds before the bye with only R1 v the Lions looking like a likely win.

GWS GIANTS
Good news: Managed to sneak in a home game at Spotless before it becomes unavailable for the Easter Show.
Bad news: The teams the Giants play twice are rough — Bulldogs, Swans, Cats, Eagles and Tigers.

HAWTHORN
Good news: Only games outside Melbourne in first nine weeks are against Gold Coast, St Kilda and Brisbane.
Bad news: Wanted all home games at the MCG but will play the Bulldogs at Etihad in R23 in a fixture that will limit crowd numbers.

MELBOURNE
Good news: Doesn’t leave Melbourne until R8. No home matches at Etihad Stadium.
Bad news: Plays the Dogs, Eagles (away), Swans and Crows in a brutal five-week stretch from R13-17.

NORTH MELBOURNE
Good news: Join the Dogs on Good Friday. Only finalist to only face one fellow top eight side (Bulldogs) twice.
Bad news: What a start. Eagles, Cats, Giants, Dogs and Dockers away. North won’t be starting 9-0 this season.

PORT ADELAIDE
Good news: Got the tick on its two major requests: A game in China and a home game in ANZAC Round.
Bad news: Tough first month, particularly if the Dockers improve.

RICHMOND
Good news: Of the five teams it plays twice, three (Blues, Dockers, Lions) were in the bottom six.
Bad news: No Friday night footy for a club like Richmond ain’t a good look.

ST KILDA
Good news: Four Friday night games is a huge win for the Saints.
Bad news: Seriously tough stretch between R5-12 when the Saints play the Cats, Hawks, Giants, Swans, Dogs and Crows.

SYDNEY SWANS
Good news: Only team that plays on Friday night eight times.
Bad news: Double up games against the Dogs, Giants, Hawks and improving Saints.

WEST COAST
Good news: Blockbuster home games on Thursday night (R4 v Swans, R13 v Cats) and Friday night (R8 v Dogs).
Bad news: A crazy, five-day turnaround between R3 (Richmond at MCG) and R4 (Sydney at Domain)

WESTERN BULLDOGS
Good news: Seven Friday night games is the most of any club bar Sydney.
Bad news: Lots of travel for the Dogs including two trips to Perth in the first eight weeks.

Yeah also travel to Perth twice, Sydney once and down to Tassie once. Happy with the 4 friday night games though.

Seven games at Geelong, two home games at Ethiad, six day breaks everywhere. Get ******.

We always play 6 interstate games a year, pretty sure that's the max we can play with the ground arrangements we have

I would say the "bad news" is 6 x 6 day breaks and 1 x 5 day break.

Hardly "bad news" in a national competition, either.
