Twilight Game

[realdeal]

I know the AFL has never tried or even pretended to make things fair e.g. blockbuster games, GC draft concessions etc ec etc

but... who's bright idea was it to play a twilight game on the sunday before a finals series!??

it shouldn't be the difference between us winning and losing but its commonsense isn't it.... obviously not

Agreed

they go to the trouble of having an extra game on Saturday and one less on Sunday..but have one of them starting at 4.40pm!!!

The power of Foxtel

Part of the television rights agreement was a Sunday Twilight game.

Well maybe the lameass AFL need to say to the TV people "look you can have your twilight games for 21 weeks of the year but for Round 22 we'd like to try and make it as fair as possible for the finals teams so they get every lil bit of rest possible"

Pretty basic stuff I would have thought..even for the AFL

Who cares when the game is played?

The only thing that matters is winning it.

next week we will play on Saturday night or Sunday.

What is the problem?
