The dream draw that sees them play the best 3 sides twice.
I'd like to travel 4 times a year and have our last 7 at our home ground too.
four of the seven games are home games - reciprocated games except richmond whom they would have played at the mcg anyway. of two of the three away games the home grounds of essendon and geelong will not cater for the expected crowds.

More excuses for the usual soft dream draw.

And the LIAR Malthouse has the nerve to comment on other teams draws :roll:


Lance or James??

Ofcourse playing poor teams is an advantage but necessarilly one you can predict the season before.

However playing at the same ground week in week out across the road from your training base is an advantage and it is foreseeable.

Good on 'em for negotiating the deals, but how exactly does a club negotiate with the league that they will only travel 4 times and only once to WA and SA??

That said I don't have a major problem with it, I just can't cop them whinging about their bad luck with the fixturing especially when for years they have laughed off the complaints of other club's regarding Collingwood's good fortune.


Life is very short and there's no time for fussing and fighting my friends.

they dont travel so they get bigger numbers at the G
hence more money for the afl
as they have more members to fill the G

submitting to the afl your preferred draw every year is laughable
hasnt been a fair draw chosen in god knows how long...

why?

kaaaarrrrchiiiing! $$$
