1 - The draft is in place so that all teams have a chance of success and the sport isn't dominated for years and years by teams such as Man Utd and Chelsea while teams at the bottom have little chance of competing.Work ethic? Try getting an AFL player to compete in as many games as a European footballer......say, anywhere upwards of 50 matches in one season. Then we'll see who's tougher....ARF!
Bang on the money there, and this is why <s******> AFL will never, EVER, be a truly global sport. Teams rewarded for coming last....plastic competition if I've ever seen one!
2 - Why bother coming onto an AFL board only to bag it? I'll admit that this is the only post of yours I've seen but you don't seem to be very favourable towards this forum's sport of choice. Why not go to bigsoccer.com or something where the majority will share your views?
