Could Collingwood Hire some People who would work at Tennant Creek?
That's not easy to do.
If it's done properly, the people wouldn't just work in Tennant Creek, they'd have to travel around the region and visit communities (remember Barkly is as big as Victoria and Tasmania put together)
It's not easy to hire people to do that. Not everybody is in a position to just pack up and move somewhere else (they have a mortgage, kids in school, friends and family nearby). And those who can just pack up and move often prefer to go to places like Paris or Tuscany or New York ... than to Tennant Creek.
And those who can pack up and go, and are prepared to move to an outback town aren't always the kind of people you'd want to have out there.
So it could be a very difficult role to fill. Maybe it's something Josh Thomas and Lachlan Keeffe could do? Not sure if that'd be allowed in the rules.
As for recruiting people in Tennant creek? Not sure you'd have too many folks there with AFL training and development skills who would are looking for work. They'd have to be trained.
