That looks brutal on Collingwood. With their depth I can see premo’s getting “managed”.

Brisbane looks like they may have a worse draw, think they are the only team with 3 games in 9 days.

 

[The Myth]

Feels as though I’ve gotten rather lucky with those byes.

Doc, Sicily, Titch, Hill, Williamson are the only players in my side. The three premos were starters.

Round 10 won’t just be about the 4 teams with the bye - at least we know the definite outs and can plan to some extent. It’s the 7 teams coming off a 3 day break that have me worried!

Quite happy with my teams draw over that period... West Coast have a 6 day break, then a 8 day break, then a 7 day break.

Will no doubt get busy for the Eagles after that.

It has only just occurred to me, but if every team ends up having a bye, that will mean we end up having 18 rounds, not 17......

I've been itching for someone to make that exact observation and have been checking the SC site over the past couple of days as that would 'imply' an extra H2H round to play out in league prior to Finals, instead of the 13.

Also, having to navigate through BYEs during SC Finals will be a nightmare especially when we're low on trades!

Something just clicked...

The Dons and Dees missed game has been considered a bye...

Which means the catch up game will now be a sole fixture for these two teams in that week.

Does this mean no double game round and we don't have to put up with that horrid 'best of 2 scores' from our Dons and Dees players?

That’s my understanding too

Along with the 4 teams on a 4 day break

So there we have it... I reckon SC will follow those rounds as set out by the AFL.. With rounds 10 & 11 being Best 18 rounds.

Seems the logical way of doing it.

I would think only Rd10 is best 18, Rd11 only has 2 teams on a bye, so similar to other years when Pt Adelaide had their China game.

This is what SC said after Rd3 what they will do:

So both rounds 10 and 11 will be best 18.
