I guess it gripes me because my club travels round the nation (yes granted some games we sell which i am perfectly happy with) and we watch the pies round up at the G time and time again.

Valleys...Please enlighten us as to which Home games you(Port Power) sold this year.????

Not this year mate, but in the past we have sold several matches to TIO and I believe a few to launceston before hawthorn cracked that golden egg. Probably should have been more specific in that post

[redden whites]

Home matches to TIO?????????????????

Haha are you kidding me, we have played St.kilda there in 2004 which we sold as a home match.

Cheers SD! Could have sworn that port experimented with aurora before TIO. Well play on!

[test]

Hmmm finals series, belting the bulldogs, Geelong and in the GF replay St Kilda was obviously the doing of us not travelling in the second half of the year. The funny thing about this is we have a good record when we travel, and the interstate sides are no good anyway. Anyone need a tissue

Round 14 - http://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/ft_m ... ?year=2004

Interesting to compare the stadium names on those 2004 results:

Subiaco and Docklands go by their current names "Patersons Stadium" and "Etihad Stadium" whereas at the time they were "Subiaco Oval" and "Telstra Dome".

And for Princes Park they use "Princes Park" and not "Optus Oval" as it was called back then!

Not sure what Kardinia Park was called in 2004?

Whats Uneducated about wanting an even draw? Your the uneducated one, thinking that it's still the VFL and not the AFL.

And if we had an even draw and everyone played each other twice Collingwood would finish 10 games clear on top.

Again I said I would like this to happen, I know it never will. But tell me why a team who only has to travel interstate 4 times in a year shouldn't have to travel a lot more the next year? In a national competition why shouldn't the massive gap in the amount of travel between teams be brought closer?

Why is it unreasonable that a Victorian team would have to travel interstate 8 times.

I was just having a bit of a joke when I put in The North Melb, Hawks and Geelong games being out of Melbs.
