The Brisbane Lions are second on the AFL ladder after 18 rounds.

Regardless of what happens from here that pretty much wraps up coach of the year.
And I was wrong about the Western Bulldogs and the ‘sack a coach’ winning ploy.
I think any underdog team in a grand final should seriously consider sacking their coach in the week leading up to the game. Apparently it’s guaranteed they’d win.
