Games at each ground:
M.C.G.; 13
Docklands; 2
Footy Park; 2
Gabba; 1
Princess Park; 1
S.C.G.; 1
KP; 1
Subiaco; 1

6 night games, but allot more Saturday afternoon games next year. Great start to the year with 3 games in a row in Melbourne, the downside to that is 2 of our last 3 are interstate. Overall a good draw playing only 3 of this years top 8 twice (West Coast, Essendon, Port).

Best of all.. NO home games at Optus!! 10 home games at the 'G, one at Docklands and one at the Gabba.
 
I just looked at our draw and the comments our president made (apparently we're "rapt silly" about retaining the Geelong foundation game).

Looking pretty good, from a fan's point of view. Hopefully we can capitalise on it with some good on-field performances!
 
Very good draw for us this year, and about time we got a good one for that matter!

We have no excuses next year, this is a good start of things to come!

This is a great draw for Melbourne.
We are now the premier tenant of the MCG!
Melbourne 13 games
Hawthorn 12
Collingwood 11
Richmond 10

It has been a lot different in the past.

I cannot work out how we play a home game against the Dogs at Colonial. Surely we should play an interstate side.

Still have to play Carlton at Optus. Not happy about that. Also going down to Geelong. Looks like there is at least two games I'll miss.

Only two at Colonial. Don't like the ground but we play well there and they are both against the Dogs.

Good how we play Essendon away at the MCG, keep Colingwood as a home game.

Looks good but the team has to perform.

well i must say - im very, very happy with the draw :) should be a good season!!!
Agreed, no excuses!
If we can get Britain as an assistant it will be a bonus as he has a great record as an assistant coach, and would provide valuable support for ND.

exactly! its time we strung at least 2 good seasons together... last season was good, but there was deff room for improvement. getting britain and having this draw means theres no room for excuses and we'd BETTER take the next step up!
