The ****? Are you sure it's the AFL? it would rack them in more cash though, that's all they care about in fixture after all. Even if it doesn't happen often.
That's why it won't change. The revenue they generate from a GF replay far outweighs the cost of staging it again.
The extra travel for interstate teams is also overblown. If we are to believe all the talk about how professional the game is, then an extra plane trip after a 6-7 day break should be fine for these professional athletes.

And get rid of the bounce while we are at it. Seemingly how we are throwing 120 years of tradition out the window.

Pretty much the only good thing about having the stupid replay in 2010 was Lionel Ritchie.If I hadn't lived through the 2010 draw I'd want to keep the replay for the potential novelty factor.
Now I've seen it, enjoyed it and would never wish it on any club again.
