Couldn't make this stuff up It's actually 7.00 p.m., but the point is well made. 12 Nov vs. Western Sydney 7.00 p.m. 10 Dec vs. CCM 7.00 p.m. 21 Jan Adelaide 7.00 p.m. Isn't the fixture drawn up primarily to meet TV requirements? IMO the issue of match-days and KO times ought to be raised by the FRG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the time the game finishes (9:00) and the children get ready for bed and get to sleep, it's 10:00, it's absolute bullshit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or to pass on your membership to someone else when you know that you definitely can't make it, which, while it is presumably against the rules, common sense would suggest that it's not policed too rigorously, when we routinely get a 75% empty stadium. Or for the club to offer a buyback scheme for unused seats when members know that they won't be attending FYI memberships are fully transferrable, provided they would otherwise be in the same category or lower. Ie adult for adult. Obv you can't get an adult in on a kids membership etc 1 minute ago, daniboi said: You're absolutely correct about TV audiences, but as someone with five young children, even 7:0 on a Sunday night is too late.

It's not only children - It's hard to get MrsJW to go to a match at 5.00 p.m. on a Sunday, let alone 7.00 p.m. or 7.50 p.m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neio Posted October 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 My personal favorite WTF fixture this year is the Tuesday 10pm Vs Perth I know it's 7pm there but surely some consideration needs to go to the team they playing and their fans watching Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Murfy1 Posted October 6, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 Hey all, I'm back from China for several weeks. For multiple reasons, it was much harder to follow the team from over there then expected. But anyway now I look forward to seeing the team up close, and watching every minute of every match! I've seen some of pre-season, but overall I've got a lot of catching up to do. In particular, I'm very keen to see how some new elements--new coach in Joyce, new players in marquees like Budzinski and McCormack (rep. for Fornaroli, I know), and a pretty new defence--impact the team. Also, I gather the league has tightened this season, with seemingly strong recruiting from every club. So this season looks very interesting from the outset Look forward to being at our truly top class stadium AAMI Park later to see the action! 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
