This will be my last post, as I have argued with you in this before and you are literally mentally incapable of acknowledging anything outside of your preconceived views, as evidenced by your last post. I too collated the last 10 years. In these years interstate teams played oppo teams who finished lower than them and had to travel 32 times. When interstate teams finished higher, their opp only didn’t have to travel 2 times (2 Sydney derbies). In that period Vic teams finishing higher had oppo travel to play them only 22 times, and on another 23 occasions their oppo didn’t have to travel, despite finishing lower. Obviously Vic teams are punished in finals, in the long run, for finishing higher, since they only get true HGA less than 50% of the time, whereas interstaters get true HGA 94% of the time. #non-vicbiasthought id collate results of the last ten years of finals.

keep whining about having to play neutral games in victoria - an interstate team is almost twice as likely to have to fly to another state and play at a disadvantage than a victorian team in a final.
those numbers are damning
44.6% of the clubs do 66% of the interstate travel in finals.
the victorians make up 65% of the clubs and do 34% of the travelling for finals.
you guys are literally whining about getting a way better deal.
