I was thinking back to Sunday 8th of June 1997. As a 10 year old I saw Melbourne kick 5.15 to lose to Adelaide by 52 points. The lowest of lows in my short time as a dees supporter. How depressing 5 goals in a whole game. Fast forward to today and that score would have won two games this round. Infact it even beats the victorious tigers. The AFL have hit a new low. I know it's shorter quarters but to be honest I think the shorter quarters just shorten the boredom.
Spot on, I remember the days I'd actually enjoy sitting down and watching a heap of other teams play footy. Now I pick and choose, barely have any interest in the game outside my own club whatsoever.
It's like I tried to watch Brisbane and Geelong the other night, turned it off one Geelong got a 4 goal lead in the second half, it's almost like it's too big a margin to peg back now in a half of footy.
Since about 2007 my interest in the AFL has gotten less and less every year.
