We never can, and yet they manage to introduce even stupider ones on a regular basis.AFL rule changes reveal: Rotations slashed, 'man on mark' on notice

Wow, the kick outs, there will be so much space but no marking options as they need to be inside the forward fifty.
Wonder how this is going to look. Its going to stop teams locking the ball in there forward half.

Those changes are at best neutral and at worst moronic.
All of this stuff regarding 'moar golz' is just the TV networks flexing their muscles. More goals = more commercials.
No one with half a brain should believe that higher scoring football must necessarily mean better quality football.

I actually like the man on the mark rule.
By shifting sideways that player ends up naturally moving forward as well.
The Coaches will get around it though, by positioning another player in the zone where the man on the mark used to drift to.
And what about when players are having shots for goal? Will multiple men on the mark still be allowed?
Will no doubt be policy on the run again.

The man on the mark thing is compounded by umpires being generally slow to call 'play on' when the kicker has run off the line. Instinctively turn a half-step to chase and you're gone. At least it should be easy to adjudicate. Potentially an anti-football change.
Kicking in - intended to counter teams like us who execute the forward press well.
Fewer rotations - should suit us in theory but probably conspires further against young players in an ageing comp after they already found it difficult to get a look-in this year. Important game coming up, are you gonna take a risk on that kid with ability knowing he's going to eat up precious rotations?

Could you please change the thread title, suggested: 'Its official, Hocking and the AFL are dumb-arsed, half-baked clowns who are trying to stuff the game'
I can imagine the Cats, with their geriatric list, won’t be happy.
HA HA, thanks jb.
The changes are generally just dumb, but the man on the mark rule has got me furious. Stuffing with the fabric of the game, for what?
Hocking: 'how about we turn the man on the mark into a witches hat?' then they can get around them and kick over them easier", other AFL overpaid hack: "great idea Steve-o, you're onto something I reckon".
you cannot make this *smile* up.

Can you believe that clown had the audacity to say these changes would bring more "dustin martin" moments into the game?
what an fn clown.
Richmonds high intensity defensive game plan is what gives Dusty those opportunities. Richmond Football is stunning and he wants to end it. deadset fn clown.

Yeah.. having just listened to SHocking. ... it's a given in '22....
Apparently we're in good hands with these so called custodians of the game on the competition committee. .. ffs Fagan is the only coach on there now I believe. ... hmmm... 'what rule do we need for us to stop Richmond?'
More dusty moments! suddenly everyone can do a dusty! what drugs is he on?
He actually stated that he’s trying to take defensive pressure out of the game; our hallmark!!!
It’s called the anti-Richmond rule change.
Fatigue players so they can’t apply sustained defensive pressure. Open the game up to a chip and mark Geelong game plan.
More Dusty moments? What an imbecile
