One less SCG game in 2007

Not sure if you are taking the p*ss here but I will assume you are serious...

"no integrity to the competition" is a big call, no... ridiculous. If there is no integrity that means our premiership had no integirty.

There is a lot of integrity but it is being reduced by things such as supposed home games becoming hostile away games.

If you compare only four away games to the fact that the "home" games of Vic clubs are often played at neutral venues against other Vic teams, it goes somewhere near evening itself out.

Does this mean a reduction in membership price of 8%.

I think SR4E is referring to Collingwood and the lobby they have with the AFL that has resulted in the Pies only getting 4 away matches outside of Victoria each year.

One of them are guaranteed blockbusters set in over special dates in Brisbane & Sydney. That means that in addition to those two matches they only play only 2 of Port, the Crows, Eagles & Dockers away from the comfy confines of the Ponsford Stand or Coventry End each season. That is not right!
