Yep taz, it's an odd fixture given the popularity of our Punt Rd VFL games and especially the curtain-raisers :huh3.

Our only 3 curtain-raisers are:
 
VFL R8     May 26 vs Coburg @ Punt Rd .............. Prior to AFL R10 vs St Kilda @ the MCG

VFL R10   June 17 vs Northern Blues @ Punt Rd .... Prior to AFL R13 vs Geelong @ the MCG

VFL R17   July 28 vs Werribee @ Punt Rd ............. Prior to AFL R19 vs Collingwood @ the MCG

Also the VFL R19 vs Willy at Punt Rd starting at 12:30pm will overlap the Gold Coast game at Metricon which starts at 2:10pm.

It could be 2pm or 2am and it wouldn't make a difference to North's crowds. No one goes anyway :lol.
