Good article as always from Brittany Carter highlighting how SSN continues to bizarrely schedule clashes with local AFL games. The opening total attendance number seemed a bit underwhelming to me considering the venues involved – last season’s opening round had a game at UniSC instead of RAC, so you would expect the overall attendance to be easily higher this year. Also seems to me they’re missing an easy win by not ensuring teams with bigger home fanbases get an opening game.
