      Was the fixture set before the players were banned?

      Anyway, a good game to miss... Earn some brownie points by doing the family thing so I can park my ass on the couch tomorrow.

              What an embarrassment for the AFEL. We heard for years about clubs need to earn Friday night games and that the slot was served for the best teams and the best games.

                  The fixture was set prior to the suspension being imposed. The AFL of course was either too arrogant, ignorant or most likely both to think little old WADA could possibly ruin their status quo.

                  Once again, they're shown to be small town amateurs lucky to be operating within a relative monopoly.
                  TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.

                    Suspension or no suspension, they finished 15th. There are teams that finished above them that don't get Friday night eg GWS.

                        It was good seeing Flog Goddard miked up. "Where's your man,!?!?" While he stands in the middle alone. Classic Brendan.
