#AFL Here's why the AFL's Wildcard round sucks
- It will cause the elimination finals to be lopsided. 5th and 6th playing against potentially tired, sore teams even with the six to seven days before the elimination finals
- The top eight finals works as proven by Gold Coast Hawthorn this year.

Meanwhile the #NRL are reportedly examining an idea where by the team who scored a try would restart the game by kicking off instead of the team who conceded the try. It's aimed at reducing blow outs.
Except it's the six again rule that's causing the blow outs but the NRL won't ever admit that.

#AFL So yeah, the AFL today confirmed the introduction of a "Wildcard Weekend" or as it should be called "the top ten finals system" (because the top eight finals system needed fixing so much #sarcasm)
7th v 10th and 8th v 9th will be on what was the weekend of the pre finals bye.
