Who the **** cares. It's at worst a neutral final.
An away game as a home final is the no-no.
In other words, the 2nd Preliminary Final of 2004. The Brisbane Lions playing a 'home' game at the M.C.G. against the 'visiting' Geelong Cats. LOLOLOLOOOO

Yes, and the AFL acted swiftly to renegotiate its contract so that it didn't happen again. That's the correct procedure.
Just because others have been wronged should not mean it should be tolerated. Should not be playing MCG tenants at the G for a home final.

Geelong should get home finals against whoever they play, Victorian or otherwise.

Counter-argument - they sell home games at the G and get experience there.

Counter-counter-argument - don't effing buy their games!

Play it at one of their home grounds - Kardinia Park, The MCG or Docklands. They've earnt that right by being the higher placed finisher.

MCG. Which begs the question wtf was with building all those lights? Should've put the money into clubrooms and executive offices instead

TBF the contract had been around for years and plenty of interstate teams had to play home finals at the G. The AFL didn’t act swiftly.

It should be at the MCG as it would be against any Victorian team (This inconsistency actually hurts Geelong like in 2017 vs Richmond)

Though I always thought Fremantle’s best win was beating them down there in a final.
