So this is what it has come to. We can reduce the spectacle, but increase the price we charge for it? Good deal, huh? Of course, this is not new, it is the way they have run the game down there since this moron got the top job. Can't he just for once keep his mouth shut? Do we have to hear the official AFL view on everything in this universe.
Jackson and Demetriou are the two most likely blokes alive today to ruin footy. They have already inflicted enormous damage on the game and they should be removed by the clubs immediately.
