Essendon supporters verdict -
Essendon not guilty despite all evidence suggesting they are.
All other clubs are guilty based on no evidence because unknown person requests investigation.
The current format is fine.
The only completely fair draw is 34 rounds. Having a finals series means that the draw doesn't have to be perfect.
A top 4 or 5 finals series would ruin the league. Half the teams would be playing for nothing for half the season.
The system is fine as it is.
If you reduce the number of teams there will be too many teams playing for nothing for most of the season. The current system gives a huge advantage to the top 4 anyway.
The top 5 was good in a 12 team competition.
So when we played Collingwood and thrashed them in the 1st quarter. The only reason we lost comfortably was because we stopped trying. Just like when Richmond stopped trying when top 4 was on the line.
Carlton should beat port. Its a dead rubber for them and they have been in worse form than us.
North will probably beat Collingwood if finals are on the line.
