Counting Opening round, it's nine rounds out of twenty five that have byes.

Opening Round, rounds 2 to 4, and rounds 12 to 16.

36% of the season won't feature a full round :lol:

Then we get a pre-finals bye...
my yes be yes, my no be no

Hawks easy favourites but we are in a much better position this year to handle this.
