Memorial Drive here we come. Makes a lot of sense for both the Crows and 36ers

The comments from the butt hurt Port supporters on social media were hilarious! "I'm never supporting the 36ers again" :lol: :lol:

Not just Port supporters.
Looks like this season will be my last supporting the 36ers

Got to say I think if Port and 36ers got together I doubt I would support them.

Ejections wouldn't be reserved for just the players on court either

Yeah, people support the 36'ers. :lol:

Strange decision by the Swamp Corporation, they usually make good financial decisions but the 6'ers are a money pit, have been for years.

With pokies soon to be taken away from AFL clubs they are now looking at other revenue streams. There are several Vic clubs looking at starting up basketball clubs including 1 that will be based in Tassie. Basketball is growing massively at junior levels and the NBL is now a pretty decent quality

And history shows, as it does with soccer in Australia, the game ebbs and flows with quality and popularity from era to era. Wasn't that long ago the 6'ers and basketball was broke.

Maybe part of it is using the basketball arena as the new shed...

Really? Good crowds and making money the past few years. Regular crowd of over 6,000

Saving instantly on medical costs and admin costs.

Really? Can't see people flying as one back there after games, not really close to the city or your home base. It could be, but I can't see it.

As I said above, it ebbs and flows. They were the kings of Adelaide 25 years ago, then they were irrelevant, then they were premiers, then irrelevant etc etc.

You can say that about most teams though, one decade you have tarps and the next decade you don’t

A number of AFL clubs are looking at getting into the NBL, Collingwood, Hawthorn,Geelong and Carlton. Sydney and the Kings and Brisbane and the Bullets would also match up well.

Hawks are looking at taking over Illawarra and relocating them to Victoria
