Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

They have a longer break over Christmas with the notable alumni ones on instead, don't they?

Not only overthinking it, but thinking is incorrect!

Unless they've changed things, ie only 14 games in round 1, only 4 highest losers go through, quarter finals need 2 wins to proceed etc etc

Here's last year's results and matches. Assuming they are keeping the same approach
en.wikipedia.org

And yes, the TV schedule has started a month earlier than last year

They always miss a week or two anyways because something else (live event) is on which takes priorities on the schedule.
