Apologies guys, the change in the AFL websites style, mean my normal method of data transfer lost the last player from the bench for some games. That has been updated now. Cheers.
The AFL website has truly lost it’s marbles with their new team sheet format. It’s absolutely useless on mobile, and average at best on a desktop. I’ll be coming to these posts from now on, cheers Shag dogg
