Simpson said the two scenarios being weighed up by the industry on Wednesday afternoon were extreme – either five games packed into in the next three weeks or no footy at all for up to six months.

A "wait and see" approach is best. Give it a few months and see how people are doing, see how the country is doing... if things get dire football will just appear stupid.

I mean it is stupid. But we love it. I get that.

It's not like the AFL is blazing trails here... other codes have been cancelled globally. Why are we any different?

Isn’t there enough suffering in the world without putting Carlton supporters through the pain this game will cause?

Already imagining the jokes about 'maybe we should have cancelled the season' when we are ten goals down at halftime

AFLW going straight to finals.

Meanwhile VFL, SANFL and WAFL stay closed.

Bush league shit.
