All games will be at the SCG this year!

So are the days & times still the same, just new venue?

[Ludwig]

The Collingwood supporters should be allowed to keep their seats at ANZ stadium. It seems only fair. The TV coverage can have a camera set up there and interview some fans as part of the half time entertainment. Maybe we can offer a free dental clinic before the game. I think that should be compensation enough.

[Dosser]

Can anybody enlighten me what this is any of three chins' business?

Chins was on his program this morning saying that it is a great outcome for the Swans and for football in general. He supports the deal. His only problem was with the AFL who he thought should have at least warned the pies that this may happen for their round 1 clash. His issue is that the supporters have booked accomodation for the Homebush venue and now it is too late to change for the Easter weekend. He stressed that he has no problems at all with the Swans and supports us in it. Immediately I am suspicious...

If the Pies are telling the truth, they're clearly in the right on this one. Having said that, this is the level of respect you get when you continually take pot-shots at a club. Can't have it both ways.

And as added compensation, we could schedule a Western Sydney Wanderers home game at ANZ at the same time. Just to up the entertainment value. What could possibly go wrong?

Please can we do this?

Brilliant.

Though sometimes I do wish Pridham would go all Walter White on us.

You know, line up Chins, Newbold, Gordon, Dermie and other enemies of the state - and deal with them a la the Breaking Bad prison takedown. Two minutes and problem solved.

I know, this is totally inappropriate but I think people understand the sentiment . . .

Now that you mention it, I'm now idly curious just how many signatures this proposal would attract, if we started a change.org petition?

Easily fixed by providing buses from ANZ to the SCG to transport all those Pies fans who are booked into skid row accommodation near ANZ.

All this wingeing from a club that hardly travels - pfffttt!

[Ludwig]

Everything is fixed. Accommodation has been found for the Collingwood fans at a standard they're accustomed to.

Yes, I do think that Eddie has had a bit of a bee in his bonnet, since the Collingwood academy at Pentridge was shut down.

[troyjones2525]

After all this we just better win and win well!

Airbnb are making special arrangements to accommodate the Collingwood fans without requiring security checks. It's just waiting for Eddie's stamp of approval.

I wasn't aware you needed bookings for bus shelters......

Of course, it's easy to pick on such soft targets...and great fun.
