Early grand final rematch highlights 2018 AFL fixture

• Chinese experiment to continue in round nine
• Greater Western Sydney and Sydney handed tough draws

Adelaide will not have to wait long for a chance to gain revenge on Richmond, with the Crows to host the Tigers in a Thursday night grand final rematch in round two at Adelaide Oval next year.

The AFL released the full fixture for the 2018 season on Tuesday and the league has stuck with a floating round 23 fixture with a bye round before the finals series kicks off.
