Really quiet around here

[Tragic]

Lets not kid around here. Gil's motivations, disney related or otherwise, are motivated towards keeping the competition from ceasing to exist.

Make no mistake, players want to play.
Fans want to watch.
The media want footy back to broadcast/write about.

Gil is ultimately in charge, sure, but its not like he is trying to do his own thing. Everyone wants this, he is simply trying to make it happen.

i tend to agree. 

and if we can get a 17 game season where every team plays each other once, then that's about as fair as it's ever going to be, and the premiership stands if you ask me.

anything less, and i find it hard to call it a season and a flag.  there can still be incentive though.  call it the covid cup or whateva, and put up nice cash prizes for the winningest clubs, and you watch them go for it.  as for the draft order in such circumstances, perhaps combine the results from 2019 and 2020 to get a draft order.
