That’s Complete rubbish that has no substance we have two fifo clubs playing down here at the moment that are pretty average teams with no connection to Tasmania that regularly play against the low drawing interstate teams getting close to comparable crowds to gws-suns and when we had our VFL team last time we were drawing crowds between 7-10 thousand for vfl games ! and the growth statement people like to make well look at both Brisbane and swans been around almost 40 years neither have really grown in to power houses of field have they the growth thing gets massively over stated it’s about tv rights for afl nothing else!If the Suns were performing the way they are performing now in Tasmania they would be getting crowds under 5000. Even when things are going perfectly a 15,000 crowd is hard to get in Tasmania, and there is zero room for growth, unlike Gold Coast.
