G’day, and welcome back to ABC Sport’s live blog coverage of the 2024 AFL season. And for the first time this season, we have a full five-game Saturday slate for you — a footy fan’s dream, and just quietly a blogger’s nightmare.
We kick off with North Melbourne-Western Bulldogs and Sydney-Fremantle as our afternoon games, before Gold Coast and Collingwood meet for the twilight clash.
Tonight’s double-header pits Adelaide against GWS and Geelong against Esssendon, rounding out a jam-packed day of footy.
Myself and eventually Andrew McGarry will bring it all to you, so stick around, and let’s all hope for some good footy ahead.
