I'd rather see 34 games, with 5 day turnarounds becoming the norm. Would make club's use their squads more strategically and provide a fair draw.

We as a sport have gone to far down the track to be doing any of that. Whilst I agree with those clubs bar the Bulldogs (Melbourne shouldn't be in the competition) there would be far to much damage and outcry if that were to happen. This removal of clubs needed of happened back in the 80's or early 90's.It should be 14 teams playing each other twice for 26 rounds. No byes. Start two weeks earlier.
The three worst supported Victorian teams immediately folded (Western Bulldogs, North Melbourne, St Kilda). Gold Coast also canned.
Done

I like it but they won't do itDrop 3 clubs to VFL, bring in the Tassie team.
30 rounds, play every club home and away - no bye rounds.
Expand list, players only allowed to play maximum of 26 H&A matches - club decide when to rest/manage their players.
Get rid of the JLT games and the byes before, during and after H&A and the season is no longer than the current setup
Makes the most sense so AFL will never go with it.
