GC was listed as the home team (a point the AFL even supported the GC with the rule that as the home team, they would wear their home strip)..
Nevertheless, even if the difference is in semantics, the result is the same. GC received money by selling their home game, to be played elsewhere than their home ground.
Put it another way, if you believe the home game was PA's, PA played their home game in China. NM played their home game in Tas.
So, why demand that Vic teams should not be allowed to play their home games on grounds other than their home ground, but non-Victorian teams (whether it is PA or GC in this case) are allowed to.
My statement stands.. "Yes, GC can sell home games, but you nasty Vic teams should not be allowed to do what we do!!"
Or, if you want to change it to suit your change in semantics, "Yes, non Vic teams can play their home games anywhere they like, but you nasty Vic teams should not be allowed to do what we do!!"
Forget the sell games template, the AFL simply add yet another FIX to the FIXture, as it effectively did in China.
