Yeah you take the crowds away but has the quality of the games gone to shite!! When 2 of the best sides are looking second rate. Have other sides had that time to figure them out.

I'm not sure the game has turned to shite, I think it always was (or has been for some time) and hence they've had to bring the fake crowd noise in to appease us into believing it's not that bad, it was just the crowds that are missing that's making it not as bad.
It is, it has been and it will continue to be, shit to watch.
I can't watch it.
Good, some others are starting wake up.
Gil will be fuming, he asked the coaches just before the restart to plat entertaing football.
I think with the shorter quarters it has made it too easy for the negative tactics to succeed and no time for players to be fatigued.
It needs intervention badly, 2 bonus points if you score 100 and lose, hell id even take a losing team scoring 70 at the moment.
Im sure we will get some stats soon but it would have to be the most amounty of sub 50 scores ever
You think Gill reads these forums? He's worried about Toyota, Foxtel, Amazon and Google, not us! He doesn't care what the game looks like if the Yanks are buying it (which they are).
The game is cooked. Time we went back to the SANFL or Ammo's in droves and vote with our feet. If we keep rolling up to games they won't get the picture that the game's rotten.
The Yanks will turn off quick smart with the skills we're seeing. McGuire said on Classified that a yank said to him that they (AFL players) fumble the ball alot, McGuire comes out and says the Sherrin is too slippery
