In the final ordinary round of the AFL season, Sunday becomes a day of reckoning — not for one team, but for many at once. The Giants, the Bulldogs, and the Hawks each carry the full weight of their season into a single match, knowing that sport rarely offers a more honest accounting than this: win and continue, lose and go home. It is the kind of day that reminds us why seasons are played at all — to arrive, eventually, at a moment that cannot be deferred.
