Chris Scott is whinging again and said that Opening Round compromises the fixture because those teams get 2 byes during the season. Longmire hit back and said that the Grand Final is played at the MCG every single year and interstate clubs have to play the Grand Final on the opposition's home ground!
If you look hard enough, you can find fixture advantages for most clubs.Originally Posted by Mel_C
This year, the Swans travel interstate 11 times. Geelong only goes interstate 5 times.
If they make the 2024 Grand Final, the Swans will have only played 3 games at the MCG while Geelong will have played there 6 times.
3 of Geelong's away games this year are against teams who won't be playing on their usual home ground. That happens to us once.
One skill those Scott boys have in spades is whining..... hope it bodes well for a mediocre season from his team.
"You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."
