    I was referring to the traffic and parking as the biggest headache with the scheduling, it was not a shot at ANZ per se. NRL got what 20k at their game? I would think we would be looking at 35+, all fine and well if you can get public transport but some of us can't, the traffic is dreadful and parking hard enough to get when there is something small on at Allphones let alone one of the busiest days of the show.

    And incidentally, I have the same complaint when a game at the SCG is scheduled when there is another event on at EQ.

    AFL takes new approach to Mothers' Day fixture

    Sounds like we will play the Dees in Melbourne on the Saturday Night of Mothers Day Weekend.

    Channel 10 news suggested tonight that Pies won't be playing in Sydney in 2015 - means we won't have that depressing ANZ trip to see us lose to the Pies out there again

    I think it was Fox Footy that announced we play the Pies at the SCG in 2015. Thank The Lord some good news at last.....

    Yep 4 games plus Geelong. NOT worth buying a membership for.

    And apart from Hawthorn we get Saints, Roos and Dees. Woo Hoo.

    Yep - the draw has definitely confirmed my earlier consideration of giving up my Melbourne Based Membership. Only 5 games down there, with 1 being at Toiletville Kardinia Park.

    Not a great draw for out of towners in NSW either - three friday night games plus a Thursday Night game all at home.
