Off topic slightly but how about Hawthorn's fixture this year.

In a COVID disrupted year, they'll get to the end of the year having only played three games away from the MCG, Marvel and UTAS (their other home). And of those three, one was an "away" game vs Gold Coast at the SCG. 

So they'll only have played two games all year in true foreign territory. 

Irrelevant club for the next decade

    Anyone who can access the paywall?

    It's only for the Geelong/St Kilda game. Also mentions home finals at GMHBA if no crowds in Melbourne. The agenda is obvious.

    The AFL is secretly confident it will be allowed to open gates to the public in Victoria this weekend in what will be a major boost for the league. Here’s the latest.

    Victorian footy fans could make a shock return this weekend with the AFL secretly confident it will be allowed to throw open the turnstiles in the wake of Melbourne’s sixth lockdown.

    High-level talks for Geelong’s game against St Kilda to be declared open to the public are advancing in what would shape as a major boost for the competition on the eve of September.

    Regional Victoria was released from lockdown on Monday night in a political decision which delivered unexpected hope that country-based Cats members would be granted entry for the Round 22 clash against the Saints, which is likely to be played on Saturday night but has not yet been assigned a timeslot.

    Victoria’s contact tracers have isolated the latest outbreak to metropolitan Melbourne in a breakthrough which could ultimately strengthen the Cats’ premiership chances.

    The Cats’ annual longshot request to play their home finals at GMHBA Stadium would be greatly enhanced if they could safely host crowds down the highway in their final two home-and-away games, particularly if Melbourne remains ridden by the virus.

    The Geelong region has not detected a case for several weeks and coach Chris Scott’s decade-long plea for home finals would be hard to ignore if his town was a safe haven.

    A decision on whether to welcome footy fans back at Kardinia Park this week is likely to be made by Wednesday.

    “If it is safe to do it then we would,” Victorian premier Daniel Andrews said on Monday.

    Some of it

    I would rather forgo not going to a final in person than play a Home final against Geelong at Geelong.

    Empty MCG every day of the week or Tasmania.

    I called this weeks ago. This is why Top 4 isn't enough. We need to beat Geelong in Round 23. Don't want to play them 2 weeks in a row there.

    Saints have been hopelessly inconsistent this year. After playing very well against the Swans last week expect them to s**t the bed v Geelong

    We have to finish above Geelong so they don’t cry for a home final down there. We just have to.

    Geelong on alert after recording one of Victoria’s 20 new cases today

    I am a bit surprised they are not playing Sunday night and even Monday night games given half the country is in lockdown.

    I long suspected that the only way the cats would get a home final against a Melbourne based club would be if vic country restrictions differed from the metropolitan area. Let's cross our collective fingers & toes that the single covid case in Geelong spent their weekend at the Westfield Shopping Centre in the middle of town.

    Unfortunately, the case is not in Geelong, but Lara 18km away. And has been in isolation for their full infectious period.

    How good would it be if that fat block head of a coach Scott got his home final in geelong and we beat them (Provided we were to play them obviously).

    That would be karma and bloody hysterical.

    The case allegedly recorded in Geelong actually came from Lara which is about 20k away by road.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
