whats the best day to attend the footy?

I always thought it depended on the game rather than the day.

Any day as long as there's a good game.

Friday nights are pretty good. Gets the AFL footy out of the way before the weekend begins.

Weeknights are pretty good too. Anytime that actually creates more leisure time.

Friday Night - Atmosphere, head in straight from work, love it.
Sat Night - Still have the day to do things & there is only rubbish on the box Sat night anyway.
Sat Arvo - Traditional day. Can still enjoy a night out.
Sunday - A complete joke. Hate it. Can't relax when you get home.

Spot on Disco. :clap

friday nights are great, even better when we win.  A whole weekend of happiness and canning the other clubs poor performances.

Now you're talking ;)
The kids hate Sundays as they have to go to school the next day.
Andy, I hate Sundays because I have to go to work the next day :-[

I love night matches but from the long term clubs perspective they suck because it stops the young kids from attending.  getting home near midnight for young children is a no no for many parents.

actually i gotto agree with you a little there. 7:45 on friday night is late for families. i can't see why they can't start friday night games an hour earlier. they're not live on tv, so i don't understand what the problem would be... apart from traffic maybe

One advantage about Sunday games is that at least the papers give a 2 page spread on game details.

Wednesday
Wasn't the old Escort Cup midweek?

I think you're right, Carn. I loved that stuff. "46c and you're a member." ;D

I mean this Wednesday.

I'm getting mighty pumped. The smell of the fans the roar of the liniment.
