And that seems to be very successful
helps when your body has a massive motza in the kitty, massive broadcast deal And how many billionaires happy to play roulette for its chicken feed to them + they are bred on franchise model sports from way way back.
We have NOTHING but a few billionaires who couldn't give a toss for starters.
Rhinehart - luves dabbling in Olympic sports with pocket money, Twiggy likes union, the rest not interested plus getting $ out of the Fed Gov is like extracting teeth from a small fish !
 
Well going forward APL now have the opportunity to pick and choose what they want from the championship in the same way the MLS scabs off the USL. So when the bulls fall over having the Wolves waltz in like what USL Championship teams – Orlando City SC, FC Cincinnati, and Nashville SC which are now MLS franchises. did could a strong possiblity
Not exactly, the USL championship teams are not teams per se, just smaller franchises beholden to the league like MLS is... You'll find a very different set of challenges here...
 
Even though admin guys such as O'Neill rode off the back of a successful ARU tenure ain't no dummy, knew nothing about Buckley being a afl fella, Gallop like O'Neill rode off the back of a strong NRL period WTF did Lowy pick these NON football types ?! huge part of the problem regards the game. He looked at it like a Westfield a sport is not as such especially ours that has had such unheaval and lack of synergies.

Covering both paragraphs above, agreed, I mentioned this in another trhead with patjennings, we NEED a FOOTBALL admin fella who understands/knows the principles of the game and has the experience dealing with the inner associated bodies and bang heads together after he has read through a massive summary of our trials and tribulations.

The fish where the fish are ironically they were looking where they are NOT funnily, having banished the NPL Clubs thats where the fish are but they/he couldn't go back on his word and directive eh, he put us in this position the friggin jerk only thinking for himself NOT the whole game.

People were sold a dream, I have a Dream, always short term.

Someone is mentioning Al-Hilal looking to buy in haha seriously turn it up even IF they did why would you want that to occur - that wouldn't help the game overall whatsoever. We need a full investigation Top to Bottom, get the facts positives negatives, sent the Agenda, then set the Plan for the next 20/30yrs.
Neither in the FA and worse APL have any idea what to friggin do but make sure of cash cows, our beloved NT's and the APL next media/broadcast deal.
Thats the vision of the people running our game.
Well said! 👏🏻

Just read the rugari article as well today regarding Merrick’s departure, you just shake your head into how poor the game is administered.

And people complain why doesn’t the govt want to give us money lol, football clearly has the short straw when it comes to the quality of administrators in this country.

Just wished for good people running the sport instead we have people who have large egos and drive Tesla’s working in a ivory tower who can’t agree on anything…
 
Wolves don't seem like a well run club from what I've seen. From a facilities point of you, they play all over the shop. Might as well bring in a club that has everything organised like a Marconi.
oh if we're talking already existing clubs - then yeah, I'd welcome anyone.

Yes but the franchises a test run before making the switch which is we need honestly, if the championship was around when NthQLD and GCU had been bidding would they have been selected? Probably not
