The AFL wouldn’t have to ‘bring anything about.’Are they breaching the terms of their licence with 'poor attendances' and 'poor results'?
How would the AFL bring this about?
If the club lost $4-5m in revenue through their tassie arrangement, they are suddenly in a financial hole. Poor performance could lead to a drop in already average attendances and membership, decreasing revenue even further.
I’m not sure the AFL is beholden to financially prop clubs up.
