Most amusing to see Bailieu having a cry about "Victorian Football lovers"...must mean those that go to VFL games every weekend, this is a national competition and yet some want to be kept in the 80's.

From next year it should be shared equally amongst all the AFL cities - over an 18 year period it should be held 10 times in Melbourne, twice in Sydney, Adelaide and Perth, and once each in Brisbane and the Gold Coast. Simple really and would cater for all "football lovers", not just Victorians.

Good idea. Get the brand out there.

But first a battle to see which code gets the use of the stadium formerly known as telstra first?
Demetriou and Gallop cream pies at twenty paces?

Im in melbourne and couldnt care less if it was in other states forever,for your average fan its something you only see on tv anyway so who really cares where the room is there staging it in,and though i loathe the guy i think ted was just talking about people who in vic love the footy,surely thats not some code for "only victorians love the footy",not sure were the context is there.

Yep.
He's been constantly trying to reduce himself to the lowest common denominator.
Appeal to the State's footy fans. He's just one of the blokes at the Saturday barbie!

Won't happen anytime soon, It's contracted to MCG for the next 30 years, or there abouts.

Brownlow is fair game.
Gives the Saints players a new playground.

I agree with all you are saying. Football lovers who live in Victoria are actually Victorian football lovers.
