It's not the worse fixturing - we have a longer break after the WCE match before we play Hawthorn on Easter Monday, we then play St Kilda at GHMBA off the 6-day break and then fly out to Perth on the back of a 7-day breakLove it.
Except the Perth home perth fk off mate
How would you like to see it handled?I reckon the club is just going through the motions with the whole "we want 11 home games at KP" thing. They know the AFL won't do it, and I bet there'll be some reaction from Brian Cook today along the lines of "well, we're disappointed but we'll keep pushing for it". Rinse and repeat this time next year.
and that would be the ONLY similarity between the 09 team and this list.In 2009 they did it in successive rounds. One after the bye too. They won both.
Particulalry that the Essendon portion cannot possibly ever play the COUNTRY GAME at the REGIONAL GROUND that is KP.All the novelty rounds are complete garbage but the country game particularly so.
The bigger hotels with indoor pools will have them open - that may be for some places with outdoor pools, but I've stayed in Brisbane in winter & their pools are open

If the second Perth trip was directly after Easter Monday it would be worse
Yay, we play Hawthorn after the bye.
Dont mind the concept as long as the location rotates. There is not a single justification for this to alway be at the MCG.Blame Kevin Sheedy. Whole thing has always felt like an Essendon marketing gimmick and I'm annoyed Geelong has gone along with it.
The AFL are just having a lend at this point with the post bye matches, how is it we never get a softer game at KP after the bye, it's clearly very deliberate at this point why we don't get games at KP after the bye.
Also if you're going to insist on us playing our home finals at the MCG then how about giving us some MCG practice right before finals
Its our own fault we are so pissweak after byes.
No one elses.
Bigger hotels yes if they are heated. Boutique hotels and most cheaper hotels will not have them open. They will also not advertise if there pool is open or not and still have shiny pictures of pools all over there websites. You should ask first coming at that time of year to make sure. Been caught out a couple of times myself even in early September.The bigger hotels with indoor pools will have them open - that may be for some places with outdoor pools, but I've stayed in Brisbane in winter & their pools are open
Mcg games are bombers and hawks. Wont play tigers and pies in geelong so only once. That's a positive.Wow Collingwood once?

Am I missing something? I see 10 home games for Geelong at GMHBA next year?
