Thank god after 2 decades we have decided to share this day
from the age
4 June 2018 — 7:39pm

Collingwood is expecting that it will host the lucrative Queen's Birthday blockbuster against Melbourne next year, for the first time in nearly two decades, in what the Magpies say will be an alternating arrangement between the clubs.

But while Collingwood president Eddie McGuire said he expected the game would no longer be exclusively a Melbourne home game, the Demons pointed out that Collingwood would have to lose another home game – and potentially against one of Carlton, Essendon or Richmond – to have the Queen's Birthday as a home fixture.

Thanks guys – I’m sure we could have figured that one out. Rolling Eyes

Or maybe one against Freo, GWS or the Bears?

The thing that really annoyed me about this day was that Melbourne used this day to bring out their past champions and parade them around the ground. It happened nearly every year.
The pre game was always about Melbourne. Video highlights.
It made me sick.

precisely the reason I refuse to attend this match. Also, I cannot stand their quail and cucumber sandwich eating fans. Even the thought of these 'supporters' singing their crappy song makes me physically ill. If anybody comes across Geoffrey Dribblesworth III please do the needful.

haha Demons... we are not North... if the AFL want to give us QB as a home game I'm sure unless we are premiers and Carlton is bottom, that we will play them twice. Oh wait. That would hurt Carlton more than us anyway lol.
