Draw?
Bit dodgy we play WS actually in West Sydney for a regional game.
I wouldn't be expecting the FFA to be doing us any favours after the offseason we have had, so it doesn't surprise me our regional game is really a home game for West Sydney.
Saw that. Very dodgy given that areas like Coffs and Port Mac have a history with football.Quote:

Other than that, not too bad, 2 home derbies but 2 away trips to Nix and Perth.
Also the new years period playing Victory and Heart in Melbourne sounds good for an away trip.
Why are you complaining gav? It's a home game.
Only 2 sunday games.
Should be at summerhayes park, winmalee FFS.Quote:

There are a few issues but how good is the double header in melbourne away
I am looking forward to the double header in Melbourne, will be too many mongs though so not going.
Typical double eff a screwing up our regional game. It's going to be hard to bear their favouritism for 2 Sydney teams this season. :rolleyes:
Oh well, less travel for me anyway.
double-melbz over new years <3
am going to try & get to hindmarsh this season. and possibly wellington.
Agree. Make for a good christmas period.Quote:

Pretty sure that with Lowy pulling out of SFC they will be brought back to the pack and his new love child will be getting all the favours now, especially when you consider it was the Russian that won the battle with Lowy for control of SFC.Quote:

Nah Reds don't have 14 home games, they have 13 "home" games and 1 "regional" game at Hindmarsh....Quote:

See what occurs.
What does irritate me about the draw is playing twice in Wellington 3 years in a row and having 2 home games V Roar 3 years in a row. Why not just swap the draw over??
If you played Roar Perth Heart Gold Coast twice at home last year (As we did) why not just give us 2 away days against these teams and then give us two home games V the teams we played once at home last year?? All you would need to do is sub Western Sydney for Gold Coast. Then change the rounds around a fraction to mix it up a bit so it looks fresh.
Not exactly rocket science.
Feel the FFA spends far too much time stuffing around with the draw trying to generate interest by picking marquee rivalries to be played at certain times.
Bit more KISS needed
Also the complaints about the regional rounds are harsh and unfounded I feel. Last year we had 3 games in regional hick towns. Adelaide in Bathurst and 2 visits to Gosford.
This season we have 2 games in regional hick towns and are only going to Campbelltown and Gosford once so I see signs of improvement on that front:)
