At least 1 Friday night
2-3 Saturday nights in Melbourne.

Im from Victoria. Cairns is in Far North Queensland. How far is it drive from Brisbane?

1705km Melbourne to Brisbane, 1793km Cairns to Brisbane. Quicker for you to drive there than for me

We'll get a home game in Cairns again I assume, that's only 5 minutes up the road isn't it?

And make that game at Metricon during the school hols, so I can kill 2 birds with one stone.

As you know Flamechucker it is closer for you to travel up here to Brissy from Melbourne than it is from Brisbane to Cairns.

[Remi Moses]

No more Sunday twighlight zone games.
More Saturday games. Like a Friday night game ( might be due since we haven't had one since 2011)

According Caroline Wilson it's pretty much a 95% chance will be playing Richmond in round 2 at the MCG.

Good to get an MCG game against a big Melbourne club, even though it will be an away game. Probably not the sort of game you put on at 4:40pm Sunday either

Yep hopefully it's not our only one for 2015. It would be good to get 1-2 home games at the MCG.

Announced today on the AFL website will be playing Hawthorn in Round 3 down in Tasmania.

Not a good result in isolation, they have really built up a home ground advantage down there. Less local exposure for the club and access to the game for supporters, and another interstate trip for the players

It least it should be televised and it may be better than being outnumbered by 30,000 of their fans and copping a hiding at Etihad or the MCG.

1 Sunday twilight game!!!!! 1!!! Woohoo!!!

but sadly again no friday nights. We do get 5 saturday night games though.

Play WC, Brisbane, Port, Saints and Melbourne twice

All in all not a bad fixture but clearly equalisation has been given no consideration again

Play the following teams twice:

St Kilda
Melbourne
Port
Brisbane

Interstate games against:
West Coast
Hawthorn (Tassie)
Sydney
Port
Brisbane
Gold Coast (Cairns)

Good allocation of games. Should appease the majority of the supporters.

Its a good draw when comparing to what we are used to. However still miles off having any sort of equality in the draw

Carlton finish 1/2 a game ahead of us yet receive 6 friday night games and a thursday night to ZERO for us.

Carlton, Essendon and Collingwood all get 13-15 games on FTA vs 8 to us.
