    ...only one game at Docklands too. Good that we get Essendon in Sydney for a change.

    I guess with the away games vs. St Kilda and North being moved out of Melbourne that was always on the cards.

    I'm guessing though perhaps because of the upgrade at @@@@dinia park that there might be half a hope to get tickets this time...not likely I know but perhaps a chance. Otherwise I hope there is a commensurate reduction in the cost of the Melbourne Memberships to reflect the fact that there are only '4' true games in Melbourne

    I know it's been debated somewhat in another thread, but I wonder if that draw will leave some families thinking twice about their memberships; 2 Friday nights + 1 Sunday twilight probably means there'll be a fair few folks that are probably going to be looking at getting to only 8 of the 11 home games.

    Hawthorn are getting screwed again - the teams they play twice are North, WCE, Sydney, Collingwood and Geelong, all finalists.

    The other 3 top four sides only play 3 of this year's finalists twice, with us playing St Kilda and GWS and Collingwood playing Essendon and Carlton twice.

    Adelaide, shockingly, play Freo, West Coast, North, Bulldogs and Port twice. Lock them in for top 4.

    Friday night I can understand being hard on young families, but Sunday twilight starts at 4.40 and is over before 7.30. That's manageable once in a season surely.

    Nothing like a good light bulb moment.

    My fingers are crossed for that as well. I will not be paying big money for only 4 games

    Bulldogs and port are gimmes for 8 points. But there will be nothing easy about West Coast or Freo twice next season, and North may improve again.

    I'm excited about the Hobart game though... I am definitely going to go to that, especially with Virgin having nice flight times from Canberra I also want to do one of the two Adelaide games, just to get to that dump AAMI before it is no longer used.

    I know what you mean, was more just thinking of it as being something extra that'll be weighed up- more along the lines of only making 9 games, and one of them being a bit of a pain at that. Not really suggesting those people won't support/attend, just may rethink going the whole hog for memberships is all.

    I wonder with the new juggled start times if clubs will consider introducing slightly modified membership packages.
