Ronan McGinniss asks; "About now AFL clubs would usually be promoting offers to members to renew for next season. Do you think memberships will be harder to sell for 2021 because clubs currently don't know what they can offer in regards to match tickets? Will members sign up for premium tiers and be prepared to forgo their benefits for a second year in a row?"

Jamie Lyn asks "Is the boundary rider role dead? It seems the commentators on the boundary (or 10 rows back in the stands at the moment) simply talk over replays giving no more information than the average punter can see on the couch.

The cameras that are fixed on the benches and in the rooms simply make the role of boundary rider redundant. They should be limited purely to player interviews if they can't add significant information that they have seen at the ground. Do you agree?

31.00 – Will we be watching the Murdoch documentary The Rise of the Murdoch Dynasty on ABC TV Sunday night?

The Sounding Board is produced, engineered and edited by Jane Nield for Crocmedia.
