The VFL coach last night was talking about our opening game against the Suns is on the Goldie, but that weekend the Suns seniors play in Victoria and our seniors play in Adelaide.

Coordination of the afl and vfl fixtures has been a monumental stuff up for years now.

For instance teams sometimes play vfl on a Sunday and the club they play for has a Friday night fixture the next week so anyone who gets promoted the seniors has a 5 day break

How hard can it be?

21 teams in the VFL, means byes too.

Email all clubs with the draw?

I think our AFLW team had a short break after a Qld game.

Players can just train a bit less if they have a 5 day break due to promotion or demotion to the VFL
 
We should be fitter and more fine tuned than the blues after a 5 day break this early on in the season.

Love that the club emphasized "just five days later". Fancy giving us a 5 day break off round 0. Ridiculous

Yes coming from playing in late 20s humid weather then 5 days only is the absolute reason lynch can't play

Yep did the same to the Richmond aflw team.. played Brisbane in 35 degree heat on Sunday afternoon and got flogged by Adelaide the following Friday night.

Killed our momentum and put Ellie McKenzie out for the season

I will spew if this happens to the men's in r0

Who does the AFL draw?

Bert the Budgie.
Pecks seed off cards, the order he pecks determines the draw.
Backs up ol' Bert and does the AFL one as well. Only it's the position of his deposits from the other end that make the determination.
