Subject: The toughest aspects of our draw per The Hun

COLLINGWOOD
Danger games: R2 v Western Bulldogs (six days), R9 v Fremantle (five days plus travel)

If Carlton got a nice calming wake up to 2025, Collingwood’s will be as subtle as a rubbish truck knocking over the bins outside your window.

The Pies face six finalists from this year all in a row to start the year and three of those games will come off six day breaks.

While the Bulldogs will have the same break before round 2, the Pies will hit the MCG that night off back-to-back six-day swings, a tough ask even if it is early season.

This gets even tougher by round 9, with Collingwood copping the tough five day and travel lead in, when the Pies go all the way to Perth to face Fremantle.

Just three other teams have the same short break plus a plane trip.

- Nah! Only way we'd get a better draw or umpiring is if we changed our jumpers to blue and white hoops. (NT) -- gen spec, 14:40 19/12/24 Thu

        Same. It astounds me. (NT) -- Flumpus, 16:18 19/12/24 Thu
        Agree, but do we use logus, pathos or ethos? Do we sacrifice money for wins? Would -- Annabelle, 18:10 19/12/24 Thu
        We get what we want -- Pendlebury, 09:21 21/12/24 Sat
