Big silver lining.

So what was the point of switching our game?
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Re: AFL Game Day R19 2021
Is the game in such a dire financial situation that we can't pause for a week, see how things lie after the weekend and then proceed from there? This is getting farcical.

I guess they didn't know about the Adelaide Lockdown.
Can we play Adelaide now?

That is what should happen if the AFL had any integrity.

Yep, too late now. Plus I wouldn’t want the coaches players swapping planning and tactics from team to team to team. I would’ve preferred the crows for sure. But we will get them soon so just switch our minds to getting it done at the MCG Saturday.

I’m with you. But now the crows are coming. So who knows. Maybe we can WCE for a third time in London with restrictions easing.

If the AFL is hell bent on just getting through the games, there is no way the AFLPA or the league itself can promise anything in regards to hubs/time away from home and stick to it.

That seems pretty harsh on the Power's finals ambitions if they lose home games.
Another asterisk next to the season unfortunately.
