Do we play on Friday or Saturday in week 3

[DOGG STIEL]

I have heard some radio stations saying we play Friday night and i just heard Saturday night on another radio station. Can anyone confirm which day we play on in week 3????

saturday
we are the highest ranked winner so we'd be the second game

 

[DOGG STIEL]

OK good, Saturday night is better for me. Im guessing its at ANZ stadium as well

 

[carrotovski]

I thought it was a friday at ANZ???

 

[Strikerdog]

if you use the nrl finals predictor ist says we would be the major semi number 2, so yeah sat night as per smartys comments

AFL grand final is always played on a Saturday afternoon...

Bulldogs v Titans saturday night!!!

It will have to be a Friday night as Etihad is unavailable for Melbourne on Friday due to the VFL grand final.

This is not the AFL, it's the state wide feeder competition.

I may have read it wrong, Too many beers can do that to ya

I read we play saturday at SFS vs winner of parra and titans. What time ? maybe 7:30pm.
But shouldnt the highest ranked winner play on friday night and get the extra day off before the GF.

 

[smarty]

why would we be playing at the SFS? melbourne get the home ground advantage so why shouldn't we??

who cares anz or the sfs big deal

who cares anz or the sfs big deal

anz has double the capacity and it's closer to most of us... which would be extremely useful if we happen to play parra

 

[PeaKer]

You're right - but for atmosphere the sfs shyts on anz.

 

[smarty]

yeah but 60k people at anz > 40k at sfs!!

We are still no clearer on what night we are playing. We shouldnt have to move days to accomodate Melbourne

Sfs owns anz, Melb dont get home ground advantage, They are not aloud to play it in there home ground.

 

[Achilles]

I thought week 3 finals are suppose to be on neutral grounds. No advantage to either team.

they get home ground advantage because they are playing in melbourne, no matter what ground they play it at.

i agree, it should definitely be saturday night at ANZ stadium. i don't really care if they decide to move it to friday night but keep it at ANZ pls.
