The AFLPA's strong stance on freedom of movement for players has had a lot to do with what's going on. Once again it's what happens when a popular sport collides with big business. The business angle always wins. The people lose.We just happen to be among the first in the firing line. The bigger clubs, those with large memberships or big corporate backers are chortling of course.The sport is steadily heading in the direction of the EPL (and lower leagues) where a handful of clubs will be fighting for the big prize and the rest will just be squabbling over the scraps that fall from the table.Our best hope is that the AFL and TV networks will see that is not good for audiences, advertising and revenues. But I wouldn't suggest you hold your breath on that one.
