Round 1 fixtures will be released Wednesday 10am NZT. Blurred screenshot posted previously by ALM socials showed what seems to be AFC hosting us week one, but blurred screenshot in the post and on ALM website shows maybe WSW. As alluded to above, Vuck would be the ideal game as a nod to 2007, but anything would be better than spunking 1 of the derby games in week 1 (unless AFC demanded it so that the fever would be present to watch some banner/trophy ceremony).
I would love to have a derby in October purely because I’m moving overseas in early-November, but week 1 is a bit of a shocking choice from my view.
