    Re: AFL 2024 fixture news

    What a terrible way to handle round 1. The teams/fans that play week 1 have an immediately bye just when they've got a taste for it and the teams/fans that play week 2 don't get to participate in the first week of football for the year. And that's most of them. Dumb!

                That's... even worse somehow.

                Also why are we the only team listed playing their first game against a team that has already played a match? Can we just not get screwed over by AFL Mickey Mouse BS for 1 year?

                        Two games in QLD and two in NSW so you would have to think it's to take advantage of the NRL hosting games in the US.

                                    Was obviously a Grand Final rematch in 2022, not sure why it has continued into 2023 and 2024.

                                            Stupid.

                                            I ****ing hate the AFL.

                                            And why would we play Melbourne again? The "rivalry" is fake.

                                                Somehow this is even worse than the continual Richmond v Carlton opening match.

                                                    We agreed with the AFL we should play Pies in opening round every year, but Melbourne hijacked it after the 21 GF saying they should play us in front of their fans. Now we are stuck with it.

                                                        On the upside, we get to play at the MCG at least once next year.

                                                            Wait all off-season to see your team play. AFL only announce 4 games to be played. How ****ing stupid!
