    I agree. Sunday afternoons watching the Swannies at the SCG in the sun with a beer in my hand is my absoloute favourite thing in the world!

      That's disappointing. Most of our games will be with the yellow football now!

            Is this right - we play Port Adelaide and Stkilda twice in the first 12 rounds?
            We also play West Coast twice in the first 12 rounds. Weird!!!

                    Crap - they took an SCG home game. What is a 'nuff nuff' anyway?

                      You're assuming the TD day games will be red, but usually they're yellow.

                      I'm pleased to see at least one day TS game though.

                        That's why we went with an AFL membership last year.

                          Why dont we ask to play games on friday nites? I can remember only one game that we played on a friday nite, not including finals. that was against the dees, on a anzac day a few years ago. why dont the swans want to play then?

                            I'm not happy with this draw at all.

                              I'd assume it would be because of TV viewers in NSW and competing with Nine's Friday Night League.

                                Two breaks

                                Players get two breaks this year:
                                * After round 7 there is a week with no games (Mother's Day weekend)
                                * Round 14 is a split round
