Not yet also only 1 spot will go to a Aussie team
Any Aussie team will face reregister by Football Australia.
We have moved to Asia and expect ramifications for any team that is known to have applied

Yeah I think they won't be allowed entry into multiple competitions where continental places are on the line. Or if they are allowed entry, they won't be accepted into the following competition (like how Auckland and Wellington can't progress to Asian comps).
E.g. if South enter the OFC league, that's is their pathway to the Intercontinental Cup and the Club World Cup, so they won't be allowed to gain entry via the AFC comps which would be via winning the Australia Cup.
But my question is, how come South, Hawaii, or any other Aussie club are allowed to play in another continental competition and progress to the global comps, whereas Auckland and Wellington are banned from progressing just to Asia? Are they not the same examples? Time to fix that NZ issue with AFC!
That is a stretch
Waiting to for AFC to come down on Football Australia like a ton of brings

Yeah, a lot of playing the same teams multiple times.
8 teams, play each other twice over 14 matches.
The top 4 then play each other one more time. Top 3 form that go to semi finals.
The bottom 4 also play each other one more time.
Then the 4th place from top 4 plays 1st place from bottom 4. The winner of that joins the semi finals.
A team will end up playing other teams four times by the end of it.

and what is the 5 circuit series I’m guessing 5 countries hosting theses games cause it’s probably going to cost to much for teams to travel every week
