The real question the AFL needs to answer. If sea levels rise which AFL grounds are in danger?

Yup and Australia will be part of Asia some day too so travel costs will be minimal for future expansion sites in other countries.

Most people don’t believe or care.

I'd like to thank climate experts, past present, and emerging

Interstate games should be played over MS Teams

Just ban Eddie, BT, Kane Cornes, and Tom Browne.

That will cut the amount of noxious hot gas generated by the AFL by 90%.

At least Collingwood are doing our bit for the planet.
Those nasty big airplanes damage the environment and we try to keep away from them.

I always knew that all our games at the MCG helped the AFL but learning that it actually helps the world, is a proud moment.

I reckon the AFL should just stop changing the bloody climate!

The climate was fine for decades, then in the last 10 years, there is changes every year!

Forget about the climate changes and let them play!

I'm further left than most but **** me, OPs obsession with shoehorning political talking points into every football discussion is cringeworthy.

 

[ibd77]

Back to day matches and manual scoreboards then.

Richmond supporters are blaming SHOcking. Climate change to curb Richmonds dominance

 

[M Malice]

George Carlin's brilliantly funny take on it > The Planet will be fine it's the people that are f ed LOL!

Wowee

19 teams are too many. Need to get rid of Richmond to combat climate change so we get a 9 Victorian team conference and a 9 non Victorian team conference.

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Like how OP drags out a few Cookers. Time the AFL had an old fashioned purge. Let's merge the four cooker Melbourne Clubs - nmfc, Footscray, Blues and Dons. Maybe with Sheedy as Prez

The AFL should introduce a CALO (Cant Access Low Ovals) allowance for those clubs affected by rising sea levels so that their players can afford to buy boats.

Bloody hell you have lost it, go check yourself in for rehab, see what happens to tiger fans when they cannot win a game.

Id go with a Season long Gather roumd. Can call it Gather season

So in 2025, every single game is played in Adelaide, then 2026 in Perth, then 2027 in Brisbane.

It will cut down on airplane emissions a ton and also provide for equality

Whose with me?
