It'd be funny it the new rule causes frustration for fans, like delaying the game waiting for relevant players to get in position?

Afl x
The modified game to be rolled out around the world and make Aussie Rules
an international force Rugby Union as Sevens Cricket has T20 Aussie Rules as described by several current coaches has a no injury / bruise free training drill The cynic in me says this is little more than Aussie Rules trying to disrupt its competitors in Football & Cricket Self delusion at its best by the AFL Against If you wanted to kill AFL stone-dead surely you would turn it into this hollow, unappealing, pressure-free, atmosphere-deficient, oval-in-a-rectangle hole yawn-fest. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-02-1...?section=sport For http://www.afl.com.au/video/2018-02-...-night-of-aflx |

It's actually an argument for the BBL to stretch into February.

The original pre-season
3 practice matches which nobody but die hards paid any attention to
If the AFL had a brain the pre-season would be all about visiting rural towns where their best ready to play 18-21 year olds come from not creating another hybrid farce like International Rules played in metro settings. 2018 JLT Community Series Fixture http://www.afl.com.au/fixture/jlt-community-series |

Afl-x - round 2
The commentators were excited for about 10 minutes
tackling is happening - this actually looks like real afl 15 minutes later they were talking topics amongst themselves and only calling the game when someone was about to score Great product - right up there with the post season excitement of the drafts Football March-October Never tune into to afl until Round 1 starts 22/3/2018 Given the state of Carlton maybe 23/3/2018 2018 http://www.afl.com.au/fixture |

Alright. I'm not proposing a tipping competition. As an active contributor on the NFL/NBA thread, I don't participate in that tipping comp because it's too hard for me to follow. So I'm just posting this, and see how I go.
Richmond v Carlton Essendon v Adelaide St Kilda v Brisbane Port Adelaide v Fremantle Gold Coast v North Melbourne Hawthorn v Collingwood GWS v Western Bulldogs Melbourne v Geelong West Coast v Sydney |

I've a gut feeling Essendon will upset Adelaide. Hawks and Maggies could go either way. Everything else seems pretty cut & dried

Easter Friday AFL
Not much better than AFL-W
2 goals 10 each in a half of football Maybe they need to pay them on performance http://www.afl.com.au/match-centre/2018/2/nmfc-v-stk Whats bizarre with AFL is each club is forced to pay 95% of the salary cap Only 5-10% difference in wages from 1st to last |
