Afl website did a short debate on whether or not West Coast and Fremantle should have an extra home game to offset the massive amounts of travel they do in comparison to the other teams (in particular victorian teams that travel roughly 5 times a season).
At first I thought it was impossible logistically and was also an unfair benefit considering that the Dockers and Eagles have arguably the best home ground advantage but after some consideration believe it has merit considering the extra rigours on the WA players (shorter careers).
Doesn't seem like this problem will be addressed any time soon but it is an interesting debate none the less.
