Who do you think will be the greatest loss to their potential Premiership chances, Coleman for the Lions, or Docherty for the Blues?

Coleman

Coleman easily. Docherty is a heart and soul player but to be honest his skills have been crap for years, getting him out of the side without feeling like they've betrayed a club legend probably helps Carlton if anything.
Oh man, it must suck being a Kiwi supporter and Cricketer

Coleman is massive loss to lions, so much pace and rebound of halfback, bit like Quaynor for Pies.
I’m with everyone else, without Coleman, I’d be very surprised if the Lions even make the GF now. He’s crucial to their transition out of defence & I’m not sure they have the cattle to replace him.
Docherty is a good leader & very reliable at half back, but you feel the Blues have got the cattle to cover his loss.

Just killing time on a stinking hot day watching a replay of round 24 last year

I think that's one of this year's rule tinkerings.
It’s not a public holiday everywhere.
Plus, the AFL’s biggest stakeholder is Seven and Fox. They care about revenue. So if a Melbourne game was on, they would push for a Melbourne prime time slot as it drives the interest in the biggest football market. This sells ads and makes them money.
The reason the opening round was a “success” was as no Melbourne games took the light.
At least this year, the opening games were a little more interesting than the non-traditional Carlton v Richmond.

Speaking of cricket, I note that the Poms were just a tad unlucky, narrowly losing to India 4-1.Oh man, it must suck being a Kiwi supporter and Cricketer

But they were morally victors apparently! Just like versus Australia last year.

What a rip,off
Every team will have the same opportunities. It's not like these 8 teams play an extra game.
Same number of games per a team, but technically, mathematically, there are different chances of being selected.
Not that it really matters. Rising Star is a bit a nonsense award.
There such good sports, really take the someone has to lose angle very well.Oh man, it must suck being a Kiwi supporter and Cricketer

Very good side but choke when it counts, bit of Williams in them also.

Oh those games were real? I thought they were trial games still.

AFL will argue the grounds in the non AFL states were full and we all watched it.
Pretty much the desired outcome.

I watched about a half of the Thursday night game. It was s**t. Didn't watch any other football related thing the whole weekend outside of Magpiespowaz Dave Granger montage. My interest is at an all time low

Really the AFL should look at Thursday to Monday or Tursday night games for the first 7 or so rounds with all the marquee events like round 0 and gather round before introducing byes. And then get to a more traditional format in the middle and end of the year where results get more interesting.
Basically includes Anzac day, Easter and could go right up to the kings birthday weekend.
