Things have changed a lot over the years, but one thing has remained constant and that is our love of the Mariners. People come and go, some like to post a lot and others just like to read. It's up to you how you participate in the community!

It only takes a few minutes, and joining will let you post your thoughts and opinions on all things Mariners, Football, and whatever else pops into your mind. If posting is not your thing, you can interact in other ways, including voting on polls, and unlock options only available to community members.

    ccmfans.net is not only for Mariners fans either. Most of us are bonded by our support for the Mariners, but if you are a fan of another club (except the Scum, come on, we need some standards), feel free to join and get into some banter.

Um?... since we're playing Perth on Thursday night shouldn't the scummers game been on Friday night or even last night... or am wishfully thinking that the FFA give a flying f@#k about our squads tiredness

Foxtel decide the schedule, based entirely on ratings, player fatigue, demographic feasibility and fairness are not considered at all. $$$

Well we`re the best part through the season & I have to admit "the draw has been s**t!"
I`ve missed more home games this season than any other due to the timing of the games.
Then we`ve copped 2 away games in a row numerous times & Canberra.
We`ve played Perth & Wellington 3 times & Jets once. WTF!
Then we've had the 5pm kickoffs & maybe 1 Friday night FTA game coupled with the first two games away as well as the last game away.
The first 3 derby games were away before we got one but then we have 6 derbies away against 3 at home.
The worst draw of any club & certainly not good enough from a fans point of view! :fireup:

Couldn't agree more Style, it's been a shockingly unfair draw, I have no idea how the thought process led to teams playing twice before playing all other opponents.

It's so counter intuitive because its main driver is viewership ratings on Fox, not to have the most and equitable draw for all teams.

I'm not of the belief it's the worst draw of any club - most clubs' draws have been utterly f**ked this year.

Due to a range of reasons we have too many teams having played an opposition 3 times before having played a different opposition more than once.

Then there's the ridiculous unavailability of stadia at issue - Westpac and Spotless in particular have had massive runs where they were unusable.
