You would think the AFL would at the very least grant Sydney a game on a Friday night in Melbourne against the likes off collingwood, carlton or essendon? We are the reigning premiers, brisbane got these type off games on a friday why cant we?
Did Brisbane ever play Friday night games in Melbourne?

It would not suit Channel 9's agenda due to their coverage of Friday night RL. Next season with the new TV rights deal could be different.

Originally posted by floppinab I'm pretty sure we actually requested one at least this year and maybe last year as well.
I definitely remember the Swans requested 1 Friday night game at the SCG for this season, but were turned down again.
I'm hoping with the new TV deal we'll get at least 1 home game on a Friday. The Geelong game last year proved just how good they can be - finish work, couple of drinks and then off to the ground.
With all the Sunday arvo games, a change would be nice!

Moes Tavern is obviously not in Sydney. They wont do it because it will clash with Friday night NRL. Which I'm having to watch now. When I'd rather be watching Geelong hammer those loser Saints.

I don't eat animals since discovering this ability. I used to. But one day the lamb I was eating came through to me and ever since then I haven't been able to eat meat.
Remind me what happened with the Friday night semi last year. There was a NRL game at the Olympic stadium, Swans played at SCG. Channel Ten had the Finals rights. Did they broadcast live or on delay. I was at the ground.
