Following on from my Round 20 post, despite all the so-called equalisation measures, for mine the AFL comp is not in a good place.

Too many teams = not enough quality players, large thrashings and a huge divide between the best and worst teams, a glut of middle of the road sides clogging the ladder, an AFL out of touch with the fabric of the game by way of their farcical tribunal process and decisions, constant pointless rule changes, pathetic score review system and inconsistent umpiring standards to name a few.

The good matches are great viewing, but they are few and far between. Enjoy watching sides like GWS and Brisbane for example when they are on song, much like Richmond when they were winning flags.

Is the obsession with copying US sports, revenue from media rights, increasing the number of teams, and seemingly ignoring the paying patrons who attend matches killing the game?

Maybe it’s just me, an old fart losing touch and not keeping up. :lol:
