Because if they removed those clubs they would have less games meaning less tv rights money,
*We would still have the same number of teams.
plus they would lose supporters and anger many more.
*Why?, they would just go back to the VFL where they started anyway.
Plus they have the capacity to expand well beyond what tasmania does. For instance the western suburbs (bulldogs region) is the fastest growing in melbourne.
* Western Bulldogs seem to be slipping behind many other clubs. Home game attendances appear to have gone backwards over the last 10 seasons.
Its not embarrassing or a bad look.
* beg to differ
Noone apart from an angry tasmanian would ever say this is embarrassing for a team to play some home games in tasmania.
* Their seem to be some angry Hawthorn supporters who are not seeing their team as much as they think they should. Most put up with it because of the cash they need.
Even thugly league trolls just shrug and go... so? Tasmania wants footy, teams want money. WOW who woulda thought? no idea how u can say its unproffessional as well, ur just sour obviouslly and its clouding ur judgement.
* suit yourself, I'm not interested in what some imagined thugly league troll would say, whatever that is.
