We'll get smashed

Even though the AFL have mandated no crowd, I wonder if the game will actually still run on Thursday? Every day the Covid-19 situation gets worse and new restrictions come in.

In this crowd-less quiet environment a loud voice and lots of collective experience and familiarity will hold sway, unfortunately two things we have very little of!
The Lions must be spewing that they cut Hodge in light of a crowd-less start to the season!
Some clubs may seriously consider playing coaches if this situation is to persist, it will be such a strange environment for the seasoned players, they'll even be able to hear the coach screaming from the boundary line!

Wouldn't surprise me to see the season put back a month, followed by a month of crowd-less games. Finals end of October.

Wonder if they'll postpone and go with a 17 game season, with everyone playing each other once.

Commence the season on 29 May, 17 round season, no byes, Grand Final 16 Oct. Players to absorb some financial adjustment like a lot of the world is being forced to do. Extraordinary times need extraordinary decisions.

Full Lockdown is the only weapon to prevent the virus spreading and other countries are doing it and we will follow imo.

AFL would hate a 17 round season. Would mean moving dangerously close to a level playing field, something which they do everything in their power to avoid

In such an abbreviated season, a final four must come under consideration.
