    WB 2019 Fixture

    It is still a bit early but what are we hoping for with the 2019 fixture.

    For me personally I wouldn't mind some afternoon home games at Marvel on the Saturday or Sunday. I like the afternoon timeslots at home. Would be nice to get a few more games at the G but don't think that will happen probably need to be playing better or have 50K members. Hopefully we have some more home games in the latter part of the season

    Will get an 'easier' draw finish 13th in 2018 but I wouldn't consider playing the Lions next year twice easy.

    2-games in Perth.

    Every other game on Friday or Saturday night to suit my TV watching schedule. No early starts on Saturday and Sunday that interfere with work and local footy.

    (I bet that fixture would be popular with approx no-one else!).
    What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

    Back to back away games at the Gabba and Metricon during school holidays please.

    Double ups against Gold Coast, St Kilda, Carlton, GWS and Sydney/Richmond/Collingwood.

    No Sunday twilights. That is all.

    I second that. But I have a feeling that we will be blessed with plenty of them.

    Sunday twilights are my favourite. The more late arvo/night games the better.

    Apparently we have Essendon as our 2019 season opener. It's an away game

    If that's the case at least we start the season at our home ground despite an away game.

    We have had the wood over them in recent times so hopefully our good record continues on. A first round win always good. Losing heavy Round 1 like we did in 2018 petty much showed what was to come - can't afford that.

    I’m hoping that we get four game on the trot in September

    Worked out well last time we had that fixture ��

    I'd be happy with that.
