AFLX’s big bonds
SUNS rookie Brayden Fiorini admits unity is the biggest element the side can take from the AFLX experiment.
While the fast-paced format wasn’t for everyone, Gold Coast’s young roster took a wider view on the concept.
“It was a really good experience and a bit different,” Fiorini told the club’s website after his side claimed one win and one loss in Sydney. “It was faster than the normal game.
“The first game was good and we were on the same page offensively and defensively.”
The games also marked the return of Sam Day from 12 months out with a hip injury.
Day booted a goal in the second half of the night.
