It's not so much that the AFL is unable to commit to something, it's more a case they don't want any commitments.
The biggest problem with the AFL is their insane predeliction for employing ex-Victorian footballers even when they don't yet have a reason for employing them. Brad Scott, I'm looking at you. Scotty got picked up after the basket case that is Norfs could no longer put up with him. There he was with a lucrative AFL contract when the AFL itself didn't know what role he was going to play.
(Don't do this at your work, kids or you'll be spending many hours being questioned by the cops, then the lawyers and then the judge)
The result is there are all these underemployed ex players wandering around AFL House trying to find something to make themselves relevant. Burn the place to the ground, you'll save a fortune and prevent even more changes being implemented just because they have people who need something to do.
