It's just another reason why the AFL is a flawed comp. The interstate teams get 11 home games, and except for derbies it's a 4 goal headstart in most cases.
The melb teams have no home ground advantage against other Melb teams


Yeah, but on the other hand, interstate teams also get 11 AWAY games too. Because of all the neutral Melbourne games, teams like Collingwood, Essendon etc usually only have to play 3 or 4 genuine away games each year. The rest are all played in Melbourne.
