I trust you'll factor all this into consideration when you add 2015 to your rankings of every premiership side including about 80 you never saw.There was today, though unofficially. Hawthorn. It was at their home ground.
That's got nothing to do with it. West Coast were the higher seeded team, having finished 2nd. Hawthorn were 3rd, and stayed 3rd seed, after having lost to West Coast in week one.
The match, like I said, for contractual, historical, and ground capacity reasons is always at the MCG. But the match certainly didn't DESERVE to be at the MCG today. That can't really be argued against.
I'm not arguing moving the Grand Final away from the MCG. I'm saying, that the match on merit deserved to be played in Perth. West Coast clearly were treated unfairly through no fault of their own.
It would be the same as playing a West Coast-Hawthorn Grand Final at Subicao if Hawthorn were minor-premiers. It's no different.
