So if Sydney win on Sat night they could possibly travel to West Coast - gee why would you want to win? Also how come it is already stated that Collingwood get the wildcard when there are 3 more games to be decided - are the percentages what decides who plays against the wildcards as well? Dumb waste of time competition.
Reward for winning round 1 - probable trip to WA

Actually it's unclear whether the winner will go to Perth or Melbourne. The conspiracy theorist in me guesses that the AFL is waiting for the results of the upcoming round so that they can avoid pitting Geelong against Gold Coast to ensure the first time Ablett plays against his old team will be in the regular season.

Mmmmm.
Dumb waste of time competition.
Pretty much summed it up in five words my friend.Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.

What a comprehensive re-write of 4 team names between the 2 paragraphs. Perhaps the AFL have so many staff they are each allocated only one paragraph. But surely "West Coast" should be in para 1, with the "Eagles" moved to para 2.
It will be good when the real sport begins!
"The second 'lucky loser' will play on Saturday 26 February, either at Etihad Stadium against Sunday's Geelong/Western Bulldogs/North Melbourne group winner or in Perth against the Eagles.
And on Sunday 27 February, the winner of this Saturday's Sydney Swans/Greater Western Sydney/Gold Coast pool will take on either the Cats/Bulldogs/Kangaroos or West Coast."Comment

I agree with that - plus we need as much experience as possible playing on grounds such as Subi, Footy Park, Shell Stadium and even the MCG/Etihad. We aint Collingwood, so we need to deal with the fact that we have to travel to play a number of games this year.Comment

The young boys in the team need to get used to travel, getting in and out of Hotels at different times and playing at times the "body clock" is not used to. Its all part of the preparation necessary to be a professional sportsman. If you cannot win "on the road" then a final 4 spot will not come your way. I would welcome the opportunity to have them experience this before the Home and Away series starts and see who adjusts to playing at Subiaco when your body tells you its 10pm and you have had 4 hours on a plane!Comment

Can guarentee the AFL won't send Collingwood out of the state (probably a good things there fans aren't let loose), even for the drab cup.Premiers 09,18,33,05
