2017 International Cup eligibility rules to change

And I even contest that it's even the AFL clubs that make the game work. It's the sport and everyone who has played it, promoted it, supported it and volunteered at clubs and leagues to run them, and I mean all the clubs and leagues, perhaps least of all the AFL clubs that just benefit at the top. If the players didn't play there are 1000s more lining up that want to.

The key is they deserve a bit more given it's short career for most but you can't demand a fixed percentage of revenue from your employer, and if they do then every time the AFL get a windfall that could be spent on game development the players will swallow a big chunk.

But yes I had been thinking that the AFL have shown they really can promote in creative ways something that is not previously their bread and butter and perhaps this shows the way for them for the IC. Also hoping maybe the players association and more directly the women players could get on board the IC as they know what it's like, previously, to fight for some coverage and support.
