so COAR it is then lol.
Both COAR's acquisitions are vested interests. Geelong is an obvious link because their head office is based in Geelong. And then the women's league because their target market is overwhelmingly women.

I'm not sure that picking up the Gold Coast Suns would make sense.

what actually happened to reebok, why did they pull out of the AFL?
They pulled out of all apparel worldwide, basically, and changed their focus to crossfit and running. The only reason they kept making the NHL jerseys up until now was because of the long contract they signed.

Would they even have the budget left to pick up another team, especially one that probably won't even be pulling a decent profit for the manufacturer?
I doubt COAR would be looking to expand any further for a few years now.

yeah makes sense, I'm Sri Lankan and they sponsored the cricket team and pulled out suddenly.

Yep UA did sponsor the umps from 2011-2013, something like that

I reckon the umpires will get COAR:

BLK not only did the umpires but the AFL Officials gear (ever notice the interchange stewards in that blue BLK shirt?) which makes sense why the AFL may be keen to buy them out (along with the clubs)

Yeah I believe BLK sponsor the AFL employees entirely.
It would be a stupid move to buy BLK, broken company with a tarnished reputation
