these clowns running the league are all over the shop like a mad womans crap.
On one hand they have equalisation measures like the draft and salary cap, while giving handouts to struggling clubs, but then decide that said struggling clubs wont get the prime money raising games unless they earn them. considering it seems that income is related to success, this is counterintuitive and helps the rich stay richer.

arse clowns.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

Will be interesting to see how many interstate trips we end up with in 2013 outside our "home" game in Cairns

I'm expecting (dreading  ;D) at least 4 away games maybe 5

Love the gabba game smokey  :clapping

It's the thought of 2 Perth trips that I'm dreading - we only had 1 this year so reckon we are good chance for 2 in 2013  :'( :'(

WGAF. Here's a suggestion, save your money and watch a game or two on TV like the normal folk.

Carlton will only have to play one of this year's finalists twice next year (that being Collingwood). So a soft fixture for the Blues :chuck.

Hawthorn has to play other 7 finalists in the first 7 rounds. So that means we won't be playing them in the first 7 weeks.

They fail massively and get a soft draw?

Looks like the AFL are going to screw us again.

They play us twice. That'll make another top 8 side.  :shh

Hopefully we cop Norf as our 2nd top 8 side.  ;D

We play St Kilda in round 2.

http://www.heraldsun.com.au/afl/st-kilda-will-enjoy-a-dream-start-to-the-2013-afl-season/story-e6frf9io-1226505625500

No mention of whose home game but the Saints play interstate in round 1 so Jack may be right about us not playing a home game until round 3.

So far we know:

1. Carlton (away)
2. St Kilda (possibly away)
3. Bulldogs ('home' at Etihad)
4. Collingwood (home)
5.
6.
7.
8.
9. Essendon (home)
10. West Coast (away)
11. Bye
12.
........
22.
23. Essendon (away)

We also know we'll be playing Carlton twice and Gold Coast up in Cairns again.
