After a crowd of 20 000 at the MCG for a 'blockbuster' Friday night fixture, its easy to see why Fremantle is banished to Tasmania. Nothing to do with temperature below 6 degrees, or the Pies being carp.
We might as well train the boys at Albany - they need to learn how to play at Bellerive and York Park - strong, fluky and icy winds, rain, sleet and snow (don't get me wrong, at least Albany is a great place to visit). Gracious me, the Pies might even be forced to play a home game against us in Tassie - that would be their first ever trip there.
My tip is that we won't see the MCG again until Grand Final Day in 2017.
