AFL has done something right!!!!!

[Danni]

Thanks to the AFL, I can't beleive they finally did something I agree with!

They have swapped the Lions game in Darwin, to New Zealand. The concerns for the Lions playing in Darwin, then Cairns, then Brisbane, still during 'summer' heat, were enough for them to change it.

Tho it makes you wonder doesn't it. They earn so much money, but didn't pick up a problem like that with the draw in the first place!

ps, my personal preference would have been for the game to be played in Victoria for our Vic based fans, but at least this is better than 3 games in the heat!

Did the AFL change this match because the Lions asked for it... or because the AFL was afraid the Players Association was going to have a go at them????

Maybe the AFL came to their senses Calamity.

who cares why they did it, only that they did do it!

They should have known better in the first place.

any reason they couldnt play night games ??

Arch, it is not that uncommon in Brisbane for it to still be around 28deg at night with high humidity at the time they would play a night game.

It would be even worse in the more northern cities.
