You are probably sick of me on this topic so I'll make this my last post on it.
RTC you are right, we ask for blockbusters. There are 2 issues you are overlooking:
1. We will not get the money when the gate sharing arrangements change;
2. We get the blockbusters but they are never offset by 2 bgames against the bottom sides. It is always St. Kilda, Freeo, WCE (now), or similar low sides (depends on who went worse last year) that we don't play twice.
I don't know that the AFL have it in mind to scew us with the draw, it's just that they don't give us ythe consideration they give other clubs. That is probably because of our supporter base who stick with us, the perciecved need top prop up football in developing staes and a fear of appearing biased to one eyed SA & WA fans.
Collingwood screwed by afl??
