Reports are the AFL are sending us to Adelaide for our elimination final. The Saints have requested The Gabba but it looks like StKilda will be forced to play at the Adelaide oval against our wishes.

Would they be sending Collingwood?
I think we know the answer to that.
Do you get to pick the umpires ?
The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

How are we disadvantaged by this decision, if correct?
Why do you bitch and moan Like a sad sack about everything AFL?

The fact that if this was Collingwood they would be playing where they wished yet we get bent over is a issue to me. We have copped it right in the nought by the AFL on numerous occasions and its not right.

As far as i know the venue for our elimination final against the Dogs has yet to be decided, that is certainly what is reported in today's papers. Brett Ratten also replied unequivocally when asked by a reporter in the post-match interview where he would like to play: "the Gabba".
With the Grand Final to be played at the Gabba you would expect that both teams would prefer to play there.
It doesn't make a lot of sense for the AFL to move this game to Adelaide Oval as it would cost the AFL a fair bit to fly both teams there, and if Victorians are unable to travel there it is doubtful that crowd numbers would reach the permitted capacity of 25,000.
That said, it shouldn't make much difference as St Kilda have broken the Adelaide hoodoo, and they will need to play their best either way to beat the Doggies.

Far less likely to encounter ridiculous humid conditions that make playing almost impossible. We smashed Port there earlier this year. We’ve got two weeks to get used to the idea, set up and play.
This thread is really a reflection of St Kilda fan psychology: it's important to get armed up with plenty of excuses for why we lost before we even start to imagine how we might win!

So your opinion becomes fact and your persecution complex becomes St Kildas reality, OK now I get it
Do you ever get tired of bitching and moaning?

Far from it.
No issue with actually playing in Adelaide for this one. It will probably make for a better spectacle.
We should get to pick.
Move the WCE final to Adelaide and see how that goes. no one would have to quaranteen.
Shitty AFL again.
