What will be the changes made permanent?

Post by Lazza »

We all know that the AFL made the required changes this season. Some were 16 mt quarters, reduced salary cap, reduced club player lists, night grand final etc. My experience tells me that on most occasions and situations some changes are made permanent long after the need for them has gone. Assuming that the Covid danger is no more, which changes would you like to see continued and which are the ones you do not wish to see again?

i. Night GF
ii. Reduced playing list

Night GF allows for a much better spectacle. There are too many substandard players because of the number of teams, so best to cut lists down to stop keeping these players in the AFL.

Yep excellent point. When they even increased the teams from 16 to 18 (actually even with the increases before that) I remember many people warning gab out the dilution of talent. I feel they they have been proved right in some cases.

Changes i'd like to see.

Get rid of the score review. Just trust the umpires call - right or wrong at least it happens quickly. Score review seems to drag on forever.

Get rid of no prior opportunity. Umpires to STFU with their warnings and just pay a free kick if someone transgresses.

I think the actual rule is alright but the policing of it is very inconsistent.
