Re: AFL 2020
I'm just hoping the Crows can have a decent year despite the reality of the team.
Its a building year but they may still make finals
Definitely agree with Wet Coast being at the top all season though.

Re: AFL 2020
I just don't get the hype around the Bulldogs, but have them in the 8 cos no-one deserves it. I don't even want to put Cats in there, but their home form should be enough.

Re: AFL 2020
Reckon Saints will improve. Bulldogs have speed and many games at Docklands and finished last season well. You'd expect Carlton & Melbourne to be better. Unknowns - Crows, Port, Bombers, Dockers, Swans, Kangas...…….but then again, each season has it's surprises.

Re: AFL 2020
Playing in empty arenas has seen Port and Gold Coast's chances of finals increase as they are more used to it.
Even though not H&A, at least if they see through a 17 game fixture season by playing everyone once only, it will at last be one of the more fairer ladders at the end!

With 17 Rounds does that mean Richmond still play their last 10 at the MGG

Who knows but spewing my Melb trip end of May is now looking shaky (if no football or horse races attendances allowed)

Re: AFL 2020
Although not perfect, playing each team once makes it a bit fairer than what it was.
To be sure, to be sure!

Re: AFL 2020
The season should be frozen with the current ladder positions final. Bomber, you will be happy with Essendon finishing 5th.

multiple games per week....reduce the impact on the body....plus a mini draft from state leagues...

AFL had to appease the rabid supporters who wanted to see the game back.
With the travel bans imposed by the govt, they had no choice but to suspend it.
