This is a bigger leg up for the 2 Perth team than gather round.
This gives them an “away” game in Perth instead of a trip to Hobart. Possibly Melbourne but most likely Tasmania.
This deal makes it almost a certainty that we’ll be programmed to play North in Tasmania. The AFL sure as hell isn’t going to be sending Collingwood or Carlton there
Of course its a scam, everyone knows its a scam but the AFL will fold because its the AFL.
This wont happen because the AFL has an incentive to have more teams not less due to the broadcast deals. The only reason the AFL is reluctant to bring in new teams is because they are still paying the bills for a third of the current clubs including GWS and Gold Coast.

Aren’t they pulling north out of Tassie, hence selling this game?This is a bigger leg up for the 2 Perth team than gather round.

Yeah so the suns or saints sold a game to china didn’t they?
Pretty sure.
It was Norf. They've tarted themselves all over the country, leaving a sour taste wherever they went, ultimately abandoning all of their fans in those areas.
First they tried the Gold Coast, then Canberra, then Hobart, now they're prostituting themselves to Perth.
Melbourne have also sold a few games as well. Most notably playing home games in the NT, but they may also have played a small number in QLD.
Ahh... but Port weren't selling their own home games. They were selling Gold Coast's home games.

You can bet we'll be one of the teams set to play them there.

Only Gold Coast would do that. They are a basket case. Didn't PA object to GC's colours being used because they were the Chinese colours as well.

Universally loved I reckon and the last of the true larrikin footballers.
Doubt anyone cares at the moment, the extra home game for the WA teams aren't exactly finals shaping. Might matter in a couple of years if it's still going on.
Could help Freo TBH
If Freo aren't beating Roos away, then then I doubt an extra win is going to make a lot of difference to their chances. But you're right, it might be enough to sneak them into the 8 or 10 or whatever it's going to be.

I actually know a few of them that are interstate members.
They haven't enjoyed talking footy for a long time though. It's actually boring taking the p155 out of them it's been going on for so long. One 'almost' feels sorry for them.

I actually know all 6 of them
Are they a local family or from interstate
It proves football is all about money now, not about winning games for supporters.
