Essendon v Richmond will be very interesting, both have lost a few players and may not be the top 4 guns they were in 2019

Werribee inter club at Arden st ?
Haven’t this club destroyed us enough now playing on our ground.

Heh. Saying that North are the ones that were destroyed in the relationship is ironic.

Also Chirnside Park is probably being used for cricket finals. The only ones that wouldn't be in use are Punt Road, North Port, Arden Street, The Hangar, Casey Fields and Princes Park.

 

[Rickee]

Port also has an open training session scheduled before the first ever VFLW home game Vs Williamstown.

I understand at least one club will not play as many as 9 teams as they play 3 games against one opposition and 2 against another.

Queensland and NSW based clubs in this comp need to play each other more than once to simply cut down on travelling for them so this is no surprise and to be expected. Greg Swann basically hinted at this type of thing, mid last year.

 

[footyfan1978]

When is this fixture coming out?!

Just before the Sun expands and turns this place into vapour.

 

[MRobbo]

Announced at Frankston FC season launch tonight

Frankston vs Coburg at SkyBus Stadium in season opener on Friday April 16

 

[ringo1]

Certainly not until next week (at least)

My guess is when fixture is released currently you would only see dates and times for first 2 rounds - unless AFL have updated their fixture past Round 6

Rumour I am hearing is Frankston vs Coburg to kick off the season at SkyBus Stadium on Friday night April 16

Its getting truly ridiculous now. Rumour has it that round 1 and 2 are now being rejigged.

 

[The Victorian]

We know at least two fixtures:
Frankston v Coburg at Skybus Stadium
Aspley v Port Melbourne at Graham Road

Now there are just another 9 fixtures to work out!

I'd love to see a Gold Coast derby to kick off the season. I'd think that would be awesome seeing the Suns play the much fancied Sharks

Sharks are playing Carlton in Melb I think

And on it goes..March 18 and still no fixture! Only 30 days until the season kicks off.

This is a wind up surely? are the people in charge of this league serious?

How are we still crickets on a fixture im beginning to wonder how sustainable this new VFL will be

 

[MRobbo]

For anyone interested in going to Port Melbourne vs Williamstown this Sunday and Frankston vs Northern Bullants next Thursday night. Tickets are free but must be purchased through INTIX website

As a north Brisbanite, this is bloody exciting. Aspley home games against Port, Coburg, Sandringham, Willy and Preston will be must see! And just around the corner too!

 

[MRobbo]

For those interested Channel 7 could well be doing 2 games a round this season, As well as a weekend game they will also show games on Thursday nights, if it clashes with AFL will be shown likely on 7mate

not sure

 

[eth-dog]

Will they release the next block of game times at the same time as the AFL?

when was the second block for the AFL going to get released? I thought they were announcing them six weeks out?

 

[damochandler]

Port and the hornets rd 1 isn’t a surprise. Brent evans played 100 senior games for both clubs and is an assistant at the hornets. Hornets have had a few port players come to the club over the years and Corey Wagner
