Whats the TL,DNR upshot on this Dave?
AFL doesnât care about AFLW
did you really need to quote the worldâs longest article?
Any idea when the next submissions for a womenâs team are?
This Richmond, Carlton game is a great game
Just watched the replay. Not a bad match.
Realistically, it will be 2023 or later. The AFaiL probably have no appetite for expansion in this current covid, money tight environment.
A womenâs team is our only chance of winning a â â â â â â â final.
VFL team have done pretty well over the last few yearsâŚ
True. I apologise to the VFL team.
our esports team won finals.
Why would they allow the Crows and St Kilda to both be in guernseys that are predominantly white?
It lines up with their cash strip policy.
AFL Commission meeting set for May 1 to decide if will be new teams be added to the AFLW comp
Or alternatively we could go for the triple crown of failure with the afl and vfl teams
I think there is little chance of us getting a team in the immediate future. IMO the AFL really underestimated the cost of the comp and will be very hesitant to add more cost, even though the Dons would be one of the few clubs to be able to support a team
I wouldnât be surprised if Port get one. They are flat broke but I think the AFL are a tad concerned on how powerful the Crows are and might look at it as a means of equalisation
There certainly was a bit of that early.
However⌠theyâre not likely to bring in one team. Sydney arenât interested, so us or the Hawks. They should pick the team with a 2-0 record between us, not the 0-2 one
My info suggests that there is appetite to expand and include the 4 missing teams but a couple of power hitters in AFaiL land are worried about the cost of the additional teams. It is no certainty for any of the 4 missing teams.
When you mention âcostâ is it wages or simply a licencing fee paid to the afl?
