Is it time for a drastic change in the way the premiership table works. Get rid of percentage and only count points for could be a good start. Don't give the under the roof excuse there is no real difference in scoring there as evidenced by Essendon last night. I just see that as no different to who you play twice instead of once which is more lopsided than where you play.
Look whats happened to the scoring of North, Carlton and St Kilda when there was no pressure on the interim coach. We have to change the way the game is coached, that will bring about far more watchable footy than most rule changes ever will. Mind you I still think prior opportunity should be gotten rid of, its either kick, handball or holding the ball, lets make it easy for the dummies in green
This culture that the AFL has created... A couple of funny results, someone has an injury, a spectator swears, etc. Then people want, even expect change.
Then whatever crap decision they make to fix the so-called problem filters through and affects all grades of footy.
Then the coaches find a way around it.
Then people want change...
