Can't see Brisbane, Collingwood, Geelong losing. Carlton shouldn't lose but they are very likely to do a Carlton.

Explain to me how it's different to Brisbane playing at the Metricon? I suppose that isn't an away game either?

You only said Brisbane.
Could be wrong but even the Brisbane Lions women's team has played more home games there than anywhere else.
Men's side could be back there when the GABBA is redeveloped for the Olympics too.

Fixed it for you. That's all about the money and you know it. We play "home" games at Marvel as well but they are no more home than MCG.
