Another reason why this season isn't canon.
We might win a game in that stretch.
To be fair to us at least (not sure about WC), we will have played 2 "home" games in the hub so this will be our full home game allotment for the season I suspect. Meaning we finish with 4 away/neutral games.

Deliberate ploy to show our Victorian players what it is like to not have to travel twice month. Cue mass interstate exodus on the trade period.

Easy.

Halfway to getting our 14 game streak

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Would need to bank all seven as wins for a possible 9-3 record with 5 away games to come (10w sneaks into the 8. 12w for home finals)

There will be a MeltFest when they WA Clubs are sent back to another location for the final 3-4 weeks of the season, losing their final games and missing out on finals.
counting down to the discussion about freo v eagles fans getting tickets
What? Other clubs have had exactly the same or longer in “normal” seasons.

Clearly an intentional one-liner attempting to farm likes and you take it seriously.
Who is the insecure one now?

Imagine if Freo or WC made the GF and it was played at Optus, nah surely the vAFL would never allow such a thing

It's ok. We've got 6 of our first 7 at Marvel. It means that us and the WA teams will be hubbing in China on the run home.
This actually isn't the advantage people think for the Eagles. They normally win their home games anyway. To finish top 2 they would have been expecting to win 8/9 this year in Perth and maybe 5/8 on the road. Having their fixture like this makes the home games that they would have won anyway easier, but their away games significantly harder.
Well, can't avoid it with hubs. But that is 7/17=41% while in a regular season it would be 12/22=55% (will have to go somehwere else afterward). And all teams should be getting a similar run anyway.
