Originally posted by Lemon_Goat View PostThe main thing im pissed off about is that Tigers get 11 games FTA. Why are they expected to do good every year and then flop. In fact they will be in spoon contention. Anasta was their marquee signing!
Broncos 11 games. Also expecting them to have poor season. Bulldogs ten. Reasonable. Storm. Not much and we are expecting to fight other codes.
The NRL has to think whats good for the game not the $$$$$$$$$$$
The AFL doesn't feature Collingwood every Friday or Sat Night do they? Same goes for West Coast. They will have 4 teams-Collingwood, Essendon, West Coast and Swans and they will share the bulk of the season FTA games between each other and the remainders get distributed evenly.
Yes there is still some inequality but at least it not 2 teams getting half the FTA games who are also expected to under perform. And those 4 teams out of the 24 rounds will get 50% but wait by 4 teams not 2. And yes I did mention the remainder gets shared equally but guess what.....its still better than our schedule.....why? Because a team like Port who no one cares about will at least get 3-4.
Canberra get 1. Compared to Brisbane and Tigers 11. Bulldogs 10. Canberra should get 3-4 IMO. Melbourne 6.
Also they know what to show. For example NRL is showing Eels vs Tigers on a Friday Night. When its rivalry round they show an inevitable thrashing eg Bulldogs vs Eels instead of a thriller Souffs vs Roosters. AFL show Collingwood vs Carlton.
Year after year they consistently show alot of Eels games because they expect them to improve just like this year with Chris Sandow? Same thing happens this year, oh that's right this year they got Sticky so they will make the 8 this year(just like every year) so lets show alot of Eels games(borefests, Yawnion comparable games)

As mentioned before, the Daily telunothing had these dates once you downloaded the draw in to excel and later on they are no where to be seen, I'm thinking they slipped up and those will be the dates but who knows. But as I wrote earlier, it won't surprise if they (the dates/times etc) have already been finalised.

It's a clever program.
Maybe keep that on file and check when the last 6 rounds are announced if that was the actual draw leaked accidentally???
Or maybe it was Teabags trying to play with our minds.

Not my choice of spreadsheets but our suppliers & accountant prefer it.
Love the way it thinks it knows what you are trying to do LOL.

Not sure if it's an excel thing but more a case of what could be and as I said, it may be more of an alignment as to which teams play when and who broadcasts the games."Do you expect me to talk"? "No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die".

From now on i'll wait for the draw to come out...
I should've purchased a home games package & supplied my relatives in Sydney with tickets when i couldn't make it down...
Hope the Townsville game doesn't get moved to Darwin...Pauline Robinson from the "Wall".

Would make them look pretty silly if they did, really other than reserving the last 6 rounds to see what games have more semi significance, there would be no point in not giving us the full years draw in total.
If I had to wager some cash if go with the Excel theory, just to annoy Chook56.
