Therefore, you agree with Wickers18 & myself. If, as you are saying the growth in 2013 was probably OK, and in 2014 looked ordinary, then I would say that the growth in the game over the past 3 years has not been very good.
I agree with TT, the growth of the Indian population in Wyndham Council is not helping with the growth of AFL in the area.
The biggest issue this league has is the lack of numbers in U17/19s
Absolutely agree, the growth in the West is being driven by huge numbers of Indian, Chinese and other Asian people. Not saying its a bad thing but its not great for our game. At least numbers in footy are still growing. If they were going backwards I would be really concerned.
I catch a peak hour train to the CBD every day from Laverton and if you did you would see what I mean. Huge number of Indian / Chinese people from Laverton, Williams Landing and Hoppers.
