AFL Round 4 includes eight fixtures across five days as part of the big Easter weekend footy extravaganza. The round begins on Thursday night with an important game between the Lions and the Magpies at the Gabba. Then, Good Friday follows with a double-header, and both games are shaping up as crackers. Saturday includes a double-header although admittedly both games are lacklustrer; however, things heat up on Easter Sunday with two more matches before the huge Easter Monday fixture between the Hawks and the Cats at the MCG.
