Agreed Shane the AG medal has a nice ring to it. In a previous rant I may have mentioned that once the AFL became a national body/competition that all ties to a local suburban comp should have been cut. This should have included having a new name for the award for fairest and best, a new name and design for the grand final cup, having full representation for all the states involved on the AFL board and allowing for the grand final to be played in other states. I know the obvious argument on my last point will be revenue and numbers but the AFL are happy to have that venue (the MCG) not even a quarter full for a stack of games during the home and away season. They can make up the revenue by better promoting the lesser clubs instead of concentrating on the "Block buster" games of the most popular clubs. Numbers cant be helped but maybe the AFL could put some money into making stadiums in each state bigger given they take so much revenue out of the stadiums.
Oh also congrats to Goodse on a stellar career, absolute champ, will be odd not seeing him running out for Sydney next season.
