Lavender Bushranger said:I'm not overly interested in the AFL as it is anyway. The only reason I follow it is because of my love for the Saints.
If they didn't exist, I wouldn't have any concerns with never watching another game of AFL again.
It's funny though, I used to go to at least 2 non-Saints matches every weekend. Was a deadset footy tragic 5-10 years ago.
Don't know what it is, but modern footy just doesn't do it for me like it used to.
As far as I'm aware the Dockers still exist. What prompted the switch (back) to the Eagles?Like all other dockers viewers, I'd be straight back to where we all came from (although we all deny it - only followed the WAFL ect ect ect) back on the Eagles bandwagon, like we were in 92 & 94.

Was not my suggestion at all. Mutant's post reads like he is a Freo supporter who supported the Eagles before the Dockers joined the league. His team now shows as West Coast. I'm wondering what prompted the change.Funny or scary brave when a North fan suggests another team should go under.

You're safe. West Coast would be the last team to go. Most that would happen but still unlikely is to change the name to Perth.If the Eagles vanished tomorrow I'd still be into the AFL, I'm not that hopelessly partisan. I wouldn't rush into a decision but have several options.
But experiencing the Eagles folding for some reason, it would have a bit more scarring no doubt (and we're a youngish, successful club...). Growing up watching the situation with Fitzroy, the early seasons of the NRL, the NSL into A-league, it all has the potential to turn you away for a bit. I think we all have a skeleton club somewhere.
If Gold Coast folded (which isn't going to happen anyway) then personally I would probably wait for a Tasmanian/ACT/NT team to come in before I started following an AFL team again and choose from one of those.Would like to hear what the Gold Coast fans think?
