No doubt why they've decided to go in and tighten it up.

AFL chief executive Andrew Dillon is off to India

The league boss will head there, along with head of strategy Walter Lee, for a week to meet with sports commissions as the AFL has India central to the next phase of making footy global.

Yep. It worked so well in China why not try India next.

This comes as Dillion is accused of lying to all 18 clubs over the departure of Jude Donnelly who was given a million dollar plus payout to leave (not decided to have a change in career as he asserted) because Richard Goyder wanted her gone as she was critical of his handling of appointing his replacement, which he did Trump style.

The West Coast Eagles confirm AFL player Tyler Brockman has been charged with one count of grievous bodily harm by WA Police following an incident in Geraldton in December,” the club said in a statement.

“Brockman is due to appear before the Geraldton Magistrates Court on Thursday, February 19.

“The club has made the AFL aware of the charge and is unable to make any further comment as the matter is before the courts.”

Brockman has played 56 AFL games, including 26 at Hawthorn after being taken with the No.46 pick in the 2020 Draft.

He was then traded to West Coast for picks 44 and 63, where he has added 30 matches. In 2025 he featured 20 times at AFL level, kicking 14 goals
