that even when they finish high up they seem to get reasonable draws.

One of our problems is for example, that our fans turn up so we have to get game on the Gold Coast for them to reach their capacity of 23,000.

We seem to be a bit of a cash cow for the northern clubs and have been scheduled to go to Qld and NSW twice this year.

Thus we rarely get the Suns in Melbourne.

What the odds we will play the Tigers again when they climb the ladder?

We always have to play the Blues and Dons twice to subsidise the parasitic clubs.

Yet everyone complains that we get the easy draws because we never leave the MCG.

The Dees play there just as much as us this year.
