I also think the AFL is going too far with the head contact + suspensions.
Given the earning potential of an AFL player (particularly the ones that 'make it' long term) I think they should be asked to sign a waiver that prevents them from suing the AFL or clubs for damages later in life.
Waivers don't hold up in court more often then not with this sort of thing though if the players can prove gross negligence or a breach of duty of care....

Largely speaking the game is less interesting as a result.
Very true Andyy, I find that the vast majority of games are unwatchable. I start to watch a game, get bored with the lack of contests & hearing umpires saying "stand, stand, stand". I either change the channel or turn the TV off & go watch paint dry or grass grow, which is far more exciting.
