The AFL states that those Friday night slots need to be "earned", which could mean many things. My guess is that it helps to play attractive, high scoring footy, it helps if you're a popular, powerhouse club, it helps if you have marquee players, it helps if you have a recent feel good story, and it helps if you win regularly.
The AFL has already admitted we've been given too many Friday night games, only because of numerous scheduling clashes and complications. I don't really see what the fuss is all about.
Just on this "earned" criteria that Lyon reckons The Glock has stated ad nauseam in the past, is it fact? Has The Glock (or anyone else at the AFL) actually stated this or is it made up?
