Did the AFL only find out about the GP and swimming champs this week?
Surely they would have acted professionally and prepared for an interstate team accomodation months ago just in case?
Exactly - send the Lions to Hotel Formule 1 in Campbellfield - I hear the hotel rooms are $59 per night

Hey, I live near *and have - on two occasions - stayed at* the Formula 1 hotel in Campbellfield... and I have to say, they are small, dingy, ugly, ill-furnished rooms...
...perfect for the Lions.
Now, is it just me - or is it a bit rich having Leigh Matthew's whine about having to travel 3 times *4 if the final is held in Vic*... heck, it's not like we've been planted here in Melbourne the whole NAB Cup!!
Beside, was Anderson saying just the other day that there is nothing wrong with the 'most goals hosts the final' idea?! Would look like a spanka if they did a backflip on this now...
