Canberra Kangaroos and the Southern Saints has a nice ring to it. Can’t see it happening though, I think the next stage will be a 20 team comp (whenever that may be)

I mean even the name, it should have been the Victorian Rebels and this is coming from someone born and raised in Melbourne. Rugby had the potential to be a true national competition but they royally f*cked it up

Do you mean dingley? It has been postponed but still needed quite a bit of fundraising/government assistance before it was going to be anywhere near complete. From what I understand Moorabbin was set to go for the final stage. I went and watched the saints first AFLW game and the pre season...

Who said this? I haven’t heard anyone use this saying in years, especially in the media

Does anyone know if this situation is going to affect the next stage of the Moorabbin redevelopment? I heard it was due to start this year

Well Jeff’s gone at the end of the season so that’s not going to happen. Moving games to Tassie was a great move at the time but I think its time move on, my main concern is how many members we might lose and wether we’ll pick up more Melbourne based fans, this is something GWS will also have to...

I probably should have been more specific in my post, I meant a gradually move away from Canberra so the club can focus their efforts on Sydneys West. Ideally that would involve playing out of Blacktown during the Easter show at a AFL standard stadium around the 15k mark. I hadn’t taken public...

All the Canberra games should be played at Blacktown, focus should be on the suburbs of Western Sydney. Nothing against the fans from Manuka I just think GWS (despite doing great work in the area) should put all their effort into the Sydney market. I know this looks hypocritical as I’m a...

I can only see the AFL going to either: -Newcastle/ Central Coast -North Queensland (playing games out of Cairns and Townsville) -South Sydney/ ACT Riverina New Zealand will go back to StKilda once there is a suitable stadium.

Accessibility is first and foremost definitely, but to say game day experience had nothing to do with it is quite a big call. The AFL themselves even mention the game experience being a factor

Couldn’t tell you but I’m sure there’s a decent amount of fans, the move from football park to Adelaide oval is a good example

and kept North Melbourne as one of the remaining Victorian clubs...

I do when it’s used in a derogatory way by someone who hasn’t even bothered to read previous posts.

So you can read but you just choose to ignore what’s written and make generalisation about people from the entire area.

Do you actually know how to read? the fact that the majority of the fans live in that geographical area is the economical reason, I even gave you an example with Geelong and used your own theory as to why Western United want to build a stadium in the western suburbs for the same reasons.
