So, apparently we won't be playing Carlton in Round 1 of 2014... but we'll play them in the opening game on Round 2.

Way to ruin tradition.

Yeah that's bullshower. The rivalry must live on and be in Round 1.

Is it because of the earlier start to the season? Will cricket still be using the MCG?

[T Dog]

Has Eddie got the Pies a better blockbuster game?

Yeah MCG unavailable. Pretty sure it's taken by cricket in case the Bushrangers make the Shield final.

Really sucks Quinny - Brisbane have had that for years in that their first couple of matches have to be played away which does not help the start to the season.  Held in reserve for the last 2 seasons and last season Qld did not make the final. Is crap when other grounds can be used and accommodate the crowd of 2000 of lucky.

[Vinny]

Sheffield Shield > AFL?!

What is this shower, haha.

Carlton vs Richmond is one of my fsvourite games to watch!

Yeah exactly. It's ridiculous but I guess they are cricket grounds after all

[Kellogscrunchynut]

One of the few years that we've both been competitive teams aswell, surely the AFL would be losing heaps for this.

[Jroo]

I've heard we're playing Gold Coast over there in round one.

Oh boy, that could be interesting.  :o

Baptism of fire for Jack Martin sounds okay though.  ;)
