Wildcard Weekend

[Dash]

The AFL already do the week off thing pre-playoffs and it has had a mixed reception at best. For team one and two, you are looking at potentially two weeks off in the business end of the season. It is great for recovery but terrible for cohesion and week-to-week grind. The two sides in the AFL that finished 1 and 2 both struggled in the prelims as a result.

Team 2 broke all kinds of records in their prelim win, so I don't think it bothered them too much.

Im not sure TBH, first instinct is it's a bad idea then when you think how biased the comp is with who you play twice and which teams travel more etc..

The ARLC has ruled out any plans to introduce this.

Thank ****. Common sense prevails.
