Senior List
I have done a quick analysis of the actual change in point scored in the first 9 rounds of 2021 compared to 2018 & 2019 (2020 left out because of shorter quarters).
Compared to 2018 the teams are scoring 1.62 POINTS LESS per game in 2021
Compared to 2019 the teams are scoring 1.28 POINTS MORE per game in 2021
And it seems the longer the season goes on the less scoring occurs.
I stress POINTS not GOALS !!
So the change in rules have basically had NO impact on the game.
THE AFL SHOULD JUST LEAVE THE RULES ALONE !!!!
