& the AFL wonder why Vic. clubs scream about interstate clubs advantages. 12 games at home for W.C., Freo, Adel, & Port (10 games against interstate clubs with a clear home advantage). 11 games at home with a clear advantage for Syd & Bris.
Th Tigers have 17 in Melbourne. Of those using home grounds you could break it into; 3 clear adv, 3 slight adv, 8 neutral, 3 slight dis-adv. (note i counted 2 Carlton games at the G as slight adv which is doubtful). therefore that balances as 3 clear adv. games.
it doesn't create an even playing field.
HOMES GAMES SHOULD SPECIFICALLY BE AT THE 'G' FOR THE TIGERS. still not even but might give a slight advantage for games like last night.
