Reading The Age this morning I found this interesting article from Jake Niall:
http://www.realfooty...pen-to-the-afl/2008/05/14/1210764953263.htmlWhat caught my eye was the second last paragraph which reads:
If the AFL forges ahead with its (second) imperial adventure as planned, the Western Sydney team will consume untold millions and drain the coffers to the point that the code could be weakened elsewhere — textbook overstretch. My guess is it would be much cheaper to prop up a team in Tasmania, or even Canberra. In terms of financial viability, the best market for another team actually would be Perth.
3 teams in Perth? How would that work? Could it work?
Is it not a matter of if but when?
