Over the years on BF I have repeatedly been perplexed as to why Non vic team supporters dropped their SANFL (Port excepted) and WAFL teams like a bad habit in favour of a start up to compete in a national league. To date I still don't have a definitive reason as to why this took place.
I wonder if it would be the same for Vic team supporters, would you do likewise?
If for example the VFL was the VFL as it was previous to the national comp and Vic would have it's own franchise teams in a national league, would you continue to follow your own team and disregard the national comp? Would you adopt it as a 2nd team with a passing interest or a big interest?
Why or why not?
The point of the question(s) and the poll is to see whether or not a separate VFL as a stand alone would retain it's supporter base and be the biggest league or would it lose it's base to new franchise teams in a national comp. Obviously there'd be varying degrees of support / non support.
While I'm aware that non vic team supporters will probably take advantage of the poll, the discussion would still show some reflection. As a request please don't use the poll to skew the view(s).
