Week 1 Schedule

[Crusher_Cleal]

Do we know if will be similar to last year? (with 2nd playing on Fri night and 1st Saturday night, I think?)

Depends what Ch 9 want.

Also, if Swans lose tomorrow night they have first dibs on Homebush next week which may effect the schedule.

Brookie is free all weekend I believe. We should let Greenberg know.

It's usually 1st plays on the Friday and 2nd on the Saturday. Had to change last year because of the Swans.

Have heard that the Swans may played at the SCG next week if they lose this week.

AFL is usually the same with 1st on the Friday and 2nd on the Saturday. This year is different because they would've had 2 MCG games on the same day. Hence Sydney on the Saturday at ANZ.

We already have put in an exemption to play at brookie but that tosser doesn't want a bar of it.

Oh yeah, that's right. We can't have it at Brookie because we wouldn't want another timekeeper stuff up like the one that happened Sharks v Cowboys finals match at Allianz last year, and they only happen at suburban grounds like Brookie.

Souths will play in the Friday night game. End of section.

Correct. Hopefully souths/roosters fri and manly/riff sat!

Saturday would be good for us, giving a better chance for our supporters to get to the game. Read an article that some fans last night missed majority of the 1st half because of traffic.

It should be that -

1v4 on Sunday
2v3 on Friday

5v8 and 6v7 both on Saturday night
