Message: [QUOTE="johnny plath, post: 2746400, member: 8689"] We do get our share of good, but its nothing like the extent the media and the haters make out. People seem to confuse FTA coverage with a favourable draw, however the reality is quite different. If you look at the draw in terms of FTA coverage, and turnaround times its quite a different story. For example, contrary to popular belief the most popular FTA team is the Rabbitohs, with 15 FTA (up to round 20) games, we're next on 12 then bulldogs on 10. Seven day or greater turnarounds: We get 9, along with eels and tigers.... this is the bottom rung of 7 day turnarounds. Every other team has 10 plus, with bulldogs and sharks topping out at 14 each, and cowboys and sea eagles 13 each. We do best with 6 day turnarounds where we recieve 8. At the tougher end we didn't get any 5 day turnarounds this year, although i read somewhere that we had the most last season, yet still made the GF. Even then, the teams with the most are all Sydney based, which is probably a logical thing when you consider travel to and from games for regional teams tends to balance that out. Despite that, Sammy should probably just suck it up and get on with playing football and leave the whining to coaches and administrators who are responsible for managing this stuff. [/QUOTE]
