Hall of Famer
Amazing foresight from the AFL to know what options would be available 20 years in the future when the last MCG contract was due to expire. Even if you dangle the carrot to other states they'll be encouraged to build bigger and better facilities that will permanently increase crowds.
Yeah, imagine thinking that a place with over 50% of their market would remain the most significant for more than 20 years into the future and accepting hundreds of millions of dollars based on that sure bet.
