Could future AFL be 16-a-side?

I seem to recall that the VFA played with only 16 -a- side for years only playing 18 a side when playing against SA, WA and Tasmanian sides in the AFL (Not the modern AFL) interstate competition back in the 60's and 70's when the VFL wouldn't play against the other states(I think they might have thought at the time that sort of activity a bit beneath them :-) or weren't game enough to play against other states for fear of being shown up :-) Who was it that got walloped by North Adelaide in the Championship of Australia?

The VFA I think played without wingmen but I might be wrong there. It was a fair while back.
