Our draw so far.

[anne]

A Carlton fan over at Big Footy has posted their draw. If it is accurate what is known of our draw at this stage is : R1 - Essendon on Sat night at Telstra Dome.
R3 - Carlton on Sat night at Telstra Dome.
R22 - Carlton on Sunday at the SCG.
So it could be some early games in Melbourne to encourage members to join up. Also the final game to be in Sydney is better than travelling for the last round ( hoping we are in final's contention and it actually matters).

[Refried Noodle]

Was that the one which has been taken down or another one?

The one I think you're talking about had night games for Kardinia!

Wait til tonight to be sure.

2 of first 3 games in Melbourne, I doubt that will happen.

Yeh OK Rub it in!!!!

On the news they only showed round one, and I saw V Ess (TD). I said I bet Rnd 3 is against Carlton.

Oh well, I guess we will get to see the flag unfurled first!!!!!

Why? It will be unfurled at a game in their home town!

Won't happen. It's always at the reigning premier's first home game.
The Kangaroos offered to unfurl Essendon's 2000 premiership flag at the round 1 game in 2001, but Essendon told them they had to be dreaming.
I doubt Essendon would be interested in unfurling Sydney's premiership flag.

Be there!

I've already marked down at least four away games for attending next year (Essendon, Brisbane, Kangas and Melbourne). Have plenty of time to keep an eye out for cheap airfares to Melbourne and Brisbane.

[goswannie14]

I wondered whether they would have had the first Sydney home game at Telstra Stadium so that they could get more fans in to see the unveiling.

We are planning to be there but will have to do some crawling to get seats, cos I don't think there will be any spare seats on the day
