If was in charge of the AFL and I wanted to change who was going to win what would I do?
I know, I could change the rules enough so we get a different result!
Let me think for a while........
Maybe I could introduce a rule that you can't push, hold when going for a Mark. (wonder who that would affect?) I may eliminate contest, heck that doesn't matter I want to change the result!
Maybe I could try to eliminate the stoppages in a game by changing the way umpires enforce the holding of the ball rule.
Well, whilst I am changing the rules for a different result I could think who has a short backline and introduce a chopping the arm rule to ensure that more frees are given away in their backline. (More frees to the opposition forwards = More goals therefore more losses to the team I want to affect)
OK if I was in charge I would do that! That would change things!
And if that didn't work I would change more rules till I got what I wanted. I could even introduce a rule the next year that if they kicked backwards I would make them play on......
That's what I could do if I wanted to change the results. (Especially if I lived in Melbourne and all and wanted a Vic team to win and have more "pies", sold at the MCG in September, or had a pet "cat" or something like that)
Maybe there have been too many games away from the MCG in previous years because of the way some teams play? You never know, I may have a contract with the MCG and need to XX games a year or pay compensation.....
Well that is what I would do to get a different result. (And we do need to have different All Australian players from time to time.)
What would I think, Hell that doesn't matter because I make the rules!
Please I don't make the rule, because some people might think I was cheating!
Sorry BBBH seems you have been ruled out of All Australian to All but Retired. Because someone changed the rules.
