Good in theory but too much advantage to Stinky Etihad Stadium or whatever its called home ground sides.It's time to start giving bonus points for teams scoring 100+ in a game. If we want scoring to get higher than ~85 points each per game, then tweaking the rules just won't cut it, we need to make sure teams actually want to play attacking football
Why is this being disliked? Isn't the fact that it's unpopular the whole point?It's time to start giving bonus points for teams scoring 100+ in a game.

Probably because its unpopular.Why is this being disliked? Isn't the fact that it's unpopular the whole point?

Totally, a ridiculously subjective and unnecessary rule that has become increasingly poorly enforced. Surely turning the ball over into a 50-50 throw-in is reward enough for applying pressure to an opponent. We need less grey areas in officiating, not more.Deliberate out of bounds needs to be completely revamped. Current “lack of intent to keep in play” rule is a joke. Any disposal that initially lands in the field of play that then goes out should not be penalised-irrespective of intent. Frees should only be paid for a kick out on the full, a handball out on the full or where a player carries the ball over the boundary line, whether or not tackled. In other words, dispose of the ball in the field of play and you’re OK.
Imagine the Pies list manager's face when that rule is brought it. Grundy's already way overs contract suddenly becomes twice as bad when stoppages halve.Bring in the SANFL rule
last team to kick or handball over the line its an oppo free.
and 25m penalties not 50m
Seems to work well

I agree, but a 17 team comp. Who cares about Sydney.Foff the Sherrin. Get a decent footy.
Go to 16 team with bigger lists.
Abolish North, Blues and Tainted. Establish a Tas team. Bigger lists mean greater capacity to play games without 7 day breaks.
So punish everybody for "killing the play" then, not just the one's subjectively perceived as doing it on purpose (i.e. defenders for the vast proportion of the decisions). What does it matter if you "kill the play" accidentally or on purpose - out on the full, push in the back, high contact, incorrect disposal etc don't just punish those who would seek to do it deliberately.It's not a reward for applying pressure, it's a punishment for killing the play.

Hopefully its a boy if he did.Jesus, mate. Did Wayne Carey sleep with your sister or something?
There is a difference between having play die of natural causes, and putting it in a choke hold until it's reached its demise.So punish everybody for "killing the play" then, not just the one's subjectively perceived as doing it on purpose (i.e. defenders for the vast proportion of the decisions).

Here's another unpopular opinion of mine: Port Adelaide isn't all that exciting to watch. They tend to take the sting out once they've wrapped up the win – that St Kilda game was one of the most boring all year, and the last quarter vs Carlton wasn't much better.
I prefer teams that like to go for the kill, the Western Bulldogs come to mind.
Bringing in SANFL rules would force the AFL to admit the rule changes didn't come from Gil or Hockings balls so it won't happenBring in the SANFL rule
