It looks like WB benefited from the bye this year as they needed a recovery more than any other team. I'm sure if they played the Eagles the week after they defeated the Crows, probably the result would have been different. Eddie made a comment after our win against the Cats that AFL will keep the bye next year and have a Brownlow ceremony that week. It looks like that the bye has evened up the final series and perhaps the ladder position won't matter much except for the second chance. Should the AFL keep the bye or let the winning teams have their momentum leading into the finals?
