Breakaway League Urgently required!!!

[greatwhiteshark]

This just has to happen at some stage to save our game from ruin, quote all the dollar making crap you want but the AFL is now rigged competition.

Almost at a point where one could argue that some Premiership winning teams could be regarded as not earning their spot in history over rigged draws and money making escapades.

Stokes, Packer anyone, take the game back to the people and give the game some equality and respect.

Most importantly take the game away from these mugs who are running it into the ground and destroying the fabric the game was built on.

The rules, the fixture, the whole system is a ****ing joke, something has to happen to change it because if it doesn't then the game will eventually become not recognisable.

Cool story my brother.

 

[didak04]

You and your team can **** off to the WAFL if you don't like it

 

[smiddaz123]

I officially nominate in the draft for your new league.

He's dead mate.

Yep, let's start a breakaway league, it would be so easy to get going, with all the available stadiums, ease of rights to team names, players under AFL controlled contracts and the simple fact that supporters wouldn't follow it.

Yep let's start it now, it could compete with the A-League and the NBL for average crowds.

 

[mcgarnacle]

Fantasy mate.

the clubs sold all their rights to the AFL. it's AFL or bust!

 

[strategy]

I agree and have said so before today
The AFL is for mainly for the Victoria teams except North .
Its a disgrace .Is it corruption or them being incompetent re fixtures , mrp umps, tv coverage etc etc ?

Supporters follow teams, A break away league would of course need the AFL teams so the supporters would follow it.

It is funny how only Collingwood supporters would be against it. They would have to work to be a big club instead of having it handed to them on a silver platter.

Collingwood don't have to come mate, they can play in their piss ant VFL and keep stroking themselves they are the biggest and poorest performed club in the country.

So you change your name for a season and gurnsey design for a season until compromise and both party's come back together.

Something has to be done to stop the crap that is happening with the game.

Geez, they really are two ugly mugs...

 

[Mr Eagle]

Cos that worked out so well for the NRL.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

break away league with the intersaters. leave us vics alone, we are bound to the AFL (Etihad and MCg have AFL contracts) if we broke away where do we play?

 

[BigBadCam]

Geez, they really are two ugly mugs...

Women go for money though so it doesn't matter.

 

[A Living God]

Ok, raise $400 odd million to underwrite the costs of establishing a dozen new clubs and the costs of running the new league for its first 3 years.
Then all you need to worry about the fact that all the good players are contracted to AFL clubs.

Semantics...pahhh....

Why don't people just bump the threads from the last 8 odd years that always appear on this subject when the draw is released?

 

[Giants FC]

And yet by any objective indicator - attendances, ratings, sponsorship - the game is in great shape.

What exactly is your grievance? And how would a breakaway comp be different? What would breaking away from the AFL and forming a new league achieve?
And what makes you think that Packer or Stokes would be interested in taking football away from money-making? Surely a breakaway comp owned by a multi-billionaire tycoon would be even more commercial and built around a financial return that the AFL is.

I think I made a topic about this just a few months ago...

hahaha.
It's like Groundhog year....
I think Chief just reposts them and changes the date.


Collingwood have the easiest draw.
We need a break away League now.
North Melbourne will fold this season.
Is Ablett the best player ever. (Jr or Sr does not matter.)


Add others at your leisure.
