Port playing away in Brisbane could see their Ressies playing in Perth
I’m sure all the Victorian AFL clubs are also happy at playing in two different states as well at various times in the season.
I’m sure all the Victorian based clubs are on board for this shag show - they could say nah F*** this sh!t! This ain’t gonna fly.
Time will be the judge
The AFL would love the opportunity to trial a conference system.
Would have to be a tad on their agenda for the AFL.
-Enable the fixture to have more blockbusters. Increasing crowd attendances and tv viewers
-Decrease the travel cost for clubs, which would increase financial sustainability.
-Would allow for a finals system that would almost guarantee more Victorian clubs to play finals and more finals played in Victoria.
