ROUND nine is here and so is your beloved AFL Record. 

While the full AFL Record (presented by Karcher) is back on sale in newsagents, Coles and Coles Express across Victoria, footy fans can also download a free version of their favourite magazine on AFL.com.au and the AFL Live Official App every week.

You will also find the AFL Record has returned to games at Optus Stadium and Adelaide Oval where you can buy it there for just $5. 

So what's happening in our world?

>> Here are the AFL Record Editor's notes for round nine: 

• In this week's edition, we ask who is the successor to former Richmond champion Alex Rance as the game's premier key defender? Rising Brisbane Lions star Harris Andrews is mounting a compelling case.
• St Kilda and West Coast emerged the big winners from an enthralling round eight. We look at the road ahead for the Saints and the Eagles.
• Don't miss the Red Energy Footy Quiz, Answer Man with our stats experts and team lists for all 18 clubs.
