We're going to keep getting games at Etihad.

Each of Melbourne, RIchmond, Collingwood and Hawthorn, the four MCG tenants, was given a home game at Etihad (Collingwood even had two).

There are a certain number of games that have to be played at Etihad every year. St Kilda, the Dogs and North Melbourne are all tenants but all sell games interstate/overseas, which then need to be made up by MCG clubs.

Worse, Carlton wants to shift home games from Etihad to the G. They'll get that request, I'm sure, because they're Carlton, which will only serve to require further games to be hosted at Etihad. Unless Essendon stops hosting us at the G, or unless the Dogs or Saints stop selling home games (which isn't going to happen given current financial circumstances), we're going to keep being given a home game there.

Which is why the AFL had better be paying the fee to Etihad directly out of their own funds (and not out of our equilisation funds, either).

If the financials show that we've had to pay this, the MFC (and its members) should rightly seek a 'please explain'.

    If I'd told my family "I wanna watch" they would have given me one.

    A scene from "being there"?

    • PREVIEW: Brisbane

      They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.

      The Demons return to Melbourne and the hallowed turf of the MCG where they face dual reigning Premiers Brisbane on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
