What is going on in this thread? Are Richmond and Collingwood fans really arguing over who has the toughest fixture and travelling the most?

LOL A pies supporter complaining about travelling.This is gold.Lol, completely clueless like most Richmond supporters.
4 games in 19 days with one trip.
4 games in 13 days travelling across the country after each one
Perth-Bris -Ade -Bris
But we understand Richmond doesn’t know what travelling is since they never travelled whilst games were allowed in Melbourne and rarely traveled in recent years either
Not from this end, luck of the draw, as usual. As for them, the never ending Pie whinge, draw umpires injuries.What is going on in this thread? Are Richmond and Collingwood fans really arguing over who has the toughest fixture and travelling the most?

Ahem...To Pies supporters bleating about fixture, check out Richmond’s next three games compared to your “draw from hell” , the persecution complex continues unabated.
No Aherm required, was a comment on a previous whinge from you lot. Like injuries, it is the luck of the draw. Not some conspiracy to bring your club down. Eight premiership players out who cares, you need depth.Ahem...
...how did your "depth" go against GWS? No excuses -just beaten by a better side? Fair enough.No Aherm required, was a comment on a previous whinge from you lot.

Yep.....no excuses, we have long term injuries. Thought we were ok against GWS, but beaten by better team on the night....how did your "depth" go against GWS? No excuses -just beaten by a better side? Fair enough.
Consider though we get a 9 dayer at the end. Our 4 game stretch really started Friday and ends next Saturday with the Port game. 4 in 15 with two road trips and opponents are GWS, WB, Brisbane and Port. That’s a tough two weeks.4 in 13 is bad, but their opposition is weak.
Collingwood: Freo, Swans, Adelaide Melbourne (4 in 13)
Geelong: Eagles, North, Saints, Port (4 in 14)
Richmond: Bulldogs, Brisbane, Port, Suns (4 in 19)
Out of the 3, Richmond have the hardest matchups and Collingwood the worst breaks, but overall I'd say Geelong has it harder if you combine matchups with breaks.
Freo didn't play a game at the MCG in the 2010 season until they got belted by Geelong in the semi finalSt Kilda travels more than Collingwood every other season and Collingwood played at the MCG for about 2 months straight prior to the 2010 finals series, I bet you weren't complaining then.
You belted us at home in 2013 after losing to us by 41 in the main season.Freo didn't play a game at the MCG in the 2010 season until they got belted by Geelong in the semi final
Nah. That's standard average. Port has a very similar setup and no one thinks they've been hard done by except Power fans. And that's after the 6 straight games on the road as well.Consider though we get a 9 dayer at the end.

It's just how it is, and the only people that matter (the teams) won't really care I don't think.
Even Geelong have an 11 day break leading into their very difficult 13 days. Freshen up a few players which will help a tiny bit.
Not really.Standard average is playing 4 of the best teams in the league consecutively?
The breaks are ok but the teams we are playing in this period are brutal.
