Not sure I agree with that LK
The visual on GF Day showed the MCG to be shorter and fatter by around 10 - 20m each way

This.. surely every fan would rather see umpiring like in finals and let the game just go every week instead of the free kick free for all we currently get.

I thought when they made it they said they made a point to build it to the same size as the MCG?

Absolutely agree with this. Throughout the year we have had to put up with stupid 50m penalties because players had encroached the protected zone. Come the Grand Final, the umpires didn't pay any .... and they were never going to, even though there were many instances where it could have been paid. So, let's simply make the umpiring in the GF the standard for the rest of the year.

Still can't read too much into it, the width is taken for the widest points, I think the arc of the pockets make a fair difference, to reach just outside 50 on a ground with deep pockets is a lot more travel from full back than it is with one with no pockets, if you catch my drift.
