I agree with the decision but can't understand the implementation.

Basically, we know the bidding system doesn't work and is open to all kinds of abuse (as we've seen). The AFL has obviously come to the conclusion that the current NGA/bidding system is not what we need or want.

So, why phase it out over 2 years?

Why not just say: "sorry guys, we had a really good idea that just doesn't work in reality. We're dropping it."

Keeping it 'half pregnant' for another 2 drafts makes no sense.

If it's crap (and that's what they've decided) - get rid of it.

If it's not - keep it.
