Thought I best break the EPFC site's 2021 posting "duck" in the last hour of January.
What do my Royal Blue brethren think of our 2021 draw?
With 10 teams playing each other twice, I can't understand why the order of matches for a team's first nine games isn't maintained for the second nine.
Case in point: East Perth's first and last games of the home-and-away season are both against Subiaco.
I've referred to venues by their traditional (i.e. ABC Sport) names rather than the commercial ones used by 6PR and the like.
Round 1: Subiaco (Leederville)
Round 2: Peel Thunder (Leederville)
Round 3: East Fremantle (East Fremantle)
Round 4: Perth (Lathlain)
Round 5: Swan Districts (Leederville)
Round 6: South Fremantle (Fremantle)
Round 7: West Coast (Leederville)
Round 8: Claremont (Claremont)
Round 9: West Perth (Leederville)
Round 10: South Fremantle (Leederville)
Round 12: Peel Thunder (Rushton Park)
Round 13: East Fremantle (Leederville)
Round 14: West Perth (Joondalup)
Round 16: West Coast (Leederville)
Round 17: Claremont (Leederville)
Round 18: Perth (Leederville)
Round 19: Swan Districts (Bassendean)
Round 20: Subiaco (Leederville)

The draw is quite fortuitous for us so no complaints.

The first game ia good one just to see where we really are in our progress given we have not recruited as strongly as others.
