One week into the AWFUL season and Steve "Mongrel Dog with 0 Flags" Hocking emails the women's coaches pleading with them to address stoppage congestion & defensive flooding beccause there isn't enough scoring.
Hmm.... do we know any other sports suffering from low scoring due to flooding & congestion?
Sure, its a new version of footy that needs to be tinkered with and I get that. But asking with the coaches to make changes one game into the year just comes across as unbelievably ******* amateurish. Surely these idiots MUST have noticed the women's league feverishly copying everything the men do in an effort to be more professional - was it so hard to imagine they'd implement AFL defensive tactics sooner or later?
So now they're rushing through more hurried and ill-considered rule changes.... yeah that's one way to make it more like the men's game.
