Possible, I would prefer a second unchanged season to bed thinks down, then go to 10. Keep it there for a few years.
Also remember, that the AFL seems to be making an effort to control player costs. 2 more squads adds significantly to the costs, especially if player payments increase, so it may also depend on how successful the first year is in raising revenue.
There's definitely been a cautious approach till now, but it already looks like all 8 teams will meet budget with relative ease, so don't be suprised if up to four teams are added for the second season (we know at least that number are already waiting in the wings).
