Labour day weekend in QLD 2 AFL teams not one game & Andrew Dimitriou says he is listening to the public?

I get somewhat really annoyed when these issues involving the draw are brought up . Before the draw is finalised all clubs have the opportunity to submit schedules of who, where, and when they want to play games. The responsibillity for the QLD long weekend "would" rest with both the QLD clubs as to why there is no game played, they obviously didn't think it viable, or had the foresight for a derby against each other,this weekend instead of next??? . It may also have something to do with the Gold Coast ground not being ready, considering their first home game is not until May 28 against the Cats. Port Adelaide "applied" to play Collingwood twice in Melbourne this year to save covering their seats, as they usually do for home games. Over the last few years Collingwood has played twice at ANZ in Sydney to help promote the game in that state, and due to the Port request, they only play in NSW once this year. No Doubt the AFLwould have preferred Collingwood play twice in NSW with GWS starting next year, but they work the fixture in an attempt to please all their Clubs, Like Hawthorn never play Collingwood at Launceston, and Geelong are always wanting to play Collingwood in Melbourne never at their home ground. On May 13 Geelong's home game against the Pies is at the G, Collingwood's "home ground", and there is no whinge from the Cats, why is that ? The bozos who keep having a crack at Eddie and his so called mates, simply know little, or nothing about the game, and how the draw is actually manipulated by the Clubs themselves.
