      But why. It's a five day break against a six day break, not exactly uncharted territory.

          Seems like any game on Fri this week will need to have a 5 day break for one club at least. I think the PA agreement allowed for one 5 day break per season for each club but not sure which clubs haven't used one yet.

            Essendon have already had theirs but it was very early in the season.

              So GWS and Geelong haven't had a 5 day break yet?
              Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                Gee, that reads a bit aggressive?
                Geelong would be on a six day break.

                On the giants not sure anyone on this board cares about them enough to know!

                  Geelong have but I don’t think GWS have.

                    I just quickly skimmed through the fixture looking at who played Thursday/Friday night and what day they played the week before. I don’t think we had any Monday night games this season?

                        Gives our guys an extra day to recover so suits us.

                          Yeah, I guess the Sunday means we probably have to cop at 6 dayer anyway. I'd have preferred to get Essendon on the shorter break but whatever. No biggie either way for us.

                            Wonder what ground we will play at?
                            Current Saint and Swans scheduled at Docklands on Sunday.
                            MCG is vacant

                              Likely a double header at Marvel, I'd imagine.

                                Yep. Too easy with no crowd. We can also play Sat I guess.
