I hate twilight games and Sunday is the worst.

Just out of curiosity, would you prefer Sunday twilight games to Monday night ones?

I guess Sunday twilight is better than Monday night, also better for the teams recovery.

Positive I see is only 1 week of no footy between NAB CUP and Round 1 of the Season

I like Sundays(the only games I can get to Melbourne to see), so the more the better for me.

I like that order ... Big win over GWS to start gives us a huge confidence boost as we take on the colliwobbles.

Kind confused with the Nab Cup Draw this year.

It goes from the 3 team pool to games already set the following 2 weeks?

Yeah something like Sydney did last year, beat them 83-4

Yeah it's the 2 short games the first week (Pies and GWS), followed by full length matches in weeks 2 & 3 (Carlton & North). Kind of a round robin thing, rather than knockout.

Best 2 teams by wins and percentage after the 4 matches play off in the grand final.

So theoretically whoever plays GWS in full length games and wins their other ones will be a shoe in to make the GF.

Good point. Put your money on Hawthorn or Gold Coast for the NAB Cup then!

GC still need to get past Brisbane and Melbourne in round robin and Geelong the following week, Hawks good bet though.

Did anyone watch the game last night? (GC v Cats)


Wondering how Jeagar O'Meara (not sure about spelling) went?
