Seems to be a “subject to change” fixture.
They haven’t scheduled what games will be played on Saturday night(s) for the new 7Mate timeslot.
What a surprise

“Tobe” Watson

A Hird, a couple Lazzaros, Polkinghorne, Lloyd, Davey, Manton, and a gestalt creature wearing #21.5 called Paddy Rider… they’re trying to out-do the other Port’s claim to be “Little Essendon”.

My gosh, Kaine Baldwin’s kicking so far in the third quarter has been diabolically bad.
His intercepting work has been top notch, though.
Finally a game at the heart of Essendon fandom… Ipswich.
I will see you all there.

Don’t worry, they left the round one main event between those two teams’ women on Good Friday.
Actually, they probably haven’t even thought forward that far… hopefully they tell us whether that game is moved too sometime before it actually happens!

@Koala they have moved the Good Friday game.
noooo 
Saturday night commentary to be Jason Bennett and Nigel Carmody.
Just to further reinforce how bad the alternative AFL coverage is.
no match report from the club for Friday’s vfl praccy is annoying

Here’s a quick match summary… Essendon’s best players were the 29 yr old state league plodders, all the young draftees you’re interested in hearing about were either injured or didn’t get a touch. Lots of learnings.

Club has ANNOUNCED shift of the VFLW game to Easter Saturday, thereby restoring the double-header.
The most boring day of the year (Good Friday) has regained that status.
