What's the bet that when the Finals come along that the Ca Swannies will have to play their home final at the MCG?

What the hell are you on about Grim? :?

Last I heard the MCG preliminary finals problem was being worked out so that interstate teams could keep their home finals. Apparently the AFL is set to give the MCG more games during the regular season in exchange for the MCG dropping the requirement that there be at least on preliminary final in Melbourne each year.

I don't think the Swans need to worry about it as they are probably guranteed a home final unless they lose a few games from now or have dodgy time keepers.
