So all Vic clubs need to move games to somewhere else, and pay for the priviledge, just so WA fans with a chip on their shoulder can feel good about themselves?
I asusme you also require us to play other Vic teams in the Broken Hill Cup (or wherever), because you still want your club to play on the MCG?
Of course, by moving all those games, the contracts with the MCG & Etihad would need to be renegotiated (minimum games and all), making games there less profitable...Can we tax WA teams to cover the losses?
Perhaps recouch your words to fans everywhere are entitled to equal access to footy.
Access to the MCG is an issue given the Grand Final is played there.
The Etihad agreement involves a reduction in games next year & just as Geelong is looking for some of those games ... national comp in the 21st century.
IF equalization is not your go telsor, just say so - your view does not appear pro Vic & elitist unlike earlier claims of anti Vic bias.
As for the tax, when games run at a profit footy wins not the stadium managers, it grows the cake, there is more for everyone - it would be reflected in increased AFL dividends for ALL.
Just as the Hawks have profited by moving away from a 20th century template, so might other Melbourne clubs.
