Should the finals be changed from a top 8 to a top 10 system? It appears the AFL may be considering it!

Positives:
- more club supporters see finals
- more players play finals
- greater finals ticketing / corporate revenues
- greater tv rights revenues
Negatives:
- weaker finals series
- availability of suitable grounds (ie imagine a 9th placed Carlton v 10th placed Essendon at Etihad if the MCG is occupied.
- issues with team scheduling (ie 6 day breaks)
