Did anybody catch the item on 7 News about next year's draw? We open on Easter Thursday against the Tigers. No Good Friday game. Blues right out of prime time schedules.

Sounds like we're up for a few twighlight games on Sunday and the odd Saturday arvo fixture. Sad

Hardly surprising really. We were pretty dismal viewing in 2015.
Reality always wins in the end.

Listen, if you expect an evenly balanced schedule from a Ch.7 run draw you are joking, the broadcasters have a massive say in the draw and the only reason we got so many Friday's last season was because the ridiculously biased Ch.7 EssenScum crew wanted to keep their head down! I bet you blind that EssenScum will end up with a Friday night bonanza in 2016!

That's okay, time for this club to learn to earn respect.

As the least watchable team in 2015, we will be in the least watched slots in 2016, it is common sense and we can't have any complaints at all.

The broadcasters have to have a huge say, otherwise they wouldn't pay the money they do for the rights to broadcast. I have far less issue with time slots, than I do with bias draws.

In saying that I hate twilight games, but when we are winning we will be back in the better time slots, so all is good.

At least it's going to mean less ruined weekends by Friday night embarrassments.

No, I don't. Just reporting was I saw. I don't watch TV footy much. I prefer to go to games and twighlight Sunday is horrible for me as an attendee not TV watcher.
