We play the Eagles after a 5 day break and play them on the day we fly up.

Yes for the 5 day break, but its only 2 hours up to Queensland.
They fly out at 8 or 9, they get there at lunch time and then have 7 hours to get themselves ready.
It's better then flying 4.5 hours to get to Perth and forced to play on the same day.
We have played really well on Metricon in recent years.
If there's one ground to play an away game on, its Metricon or the Gabba.
The last time we lost in Queensland was in 2012...

Now the push is on for a 'wildcard'. These *smile* are *smile* *smile*.

Swear filter works well I see.:D

The funniest outcome would be for us to have a shocker but qualify for a wildcard and win the premiership from there. That would be a fast track way for the AFL to dispose of the idea going forward.

Geez I hope that Geelong are more crap than ever this season.

Where's there improvement going to come from?
There best player walked out.
There so called top 5 are all pensioners.
There recruiting has been substandard under Scott.
Maybe if Cockatoo Collins gets back :mhihi

Hutchinson and every knob on his books pushes it at any opportunity. ....
Brad and Hocking probably waiting to see how Chris's team is placed before a decision is made.

Wild card really makes no sense.

1. First time ever we have an equitable draw. Top 8 should be more than enough
2. AFL are doing whatever they can to compress the season into a short time frame. Wild card round will just extend the season

Jabba the Hutchy must have directed all Croc Media people to push the wild card angle.

Only one home game for us at the G.

Cats have 4 out of 5 at home.

How can that be??

Why would you think? The premiers; about whom sections of the media and some of the football public have been bleating about our supposed run of 7 home games in '19. All based on a false premise.
Even Colonwood have 2 HGs at the G. The only positive is we must play them there too.
Awaiting the uproar over the Moggies getting 3/5 at GMBH. o_O

Geelol given the dream draw. What a joke of an organisation.

Still gotta play finals on the G.

When they fall ovetr again come finals it will be sweet.

It will be even sweeter if it is us drop punting them out of September again.

Still waiting for Collingwood or Essendon to play a game down at the bowling alley.

I dont think the Hawks have traveled down very much at all either over the last 10 years, but i dont readily recall Geesook, crying over that.
