Congratulations North Melbourne that's a huge achievement especially during these covid years and after a wooden spoon season. Hopefully it keeps the vultures at bay for a while. Any talk of relocation to Tasmania is completely off the tables.

Is all their revenue from their own earnings? If not what is the split between their own and AFL/other clubs?

Well if they are "debt free" then you'd have to say they shouldn't need any AFL/other teams assistance. Is that happening?First comment inJesus christ some people are sour

They get roughly the same amount of assistance as Carlton, Melbourne & the Dogs.
St Kilda, Brisbane, Gold Coast & GWS get much, much more.
Alot of people deserve credit;

So we’re cancelling all the return blockbusters and sharing time slots with an equal draw instead of a fixture?
Or are North (and others) still giving the rest of the comp assistance with those?

If the majority of clubs are receiving equalisation assistance from the AFL, why should we be excluded? We don't get the Friday night/ free to air games like other clubs get etc that the equalisation payments were brought in for.
This is an argument that gets raised repeatedly and it's complete bullsh1t.
Good on the club to get to the position we are in especially since where we have come from.
Even more impressive is that we've been able to do this without pokie revenue.

Is there anywhere to review this data?

Well done North. Well run club, apart from a brain fart a few years ago.
Club management is far more important than anything else. Note to Carlton and GC. Get the off field right and good things follow

Good, they can focus on our $2 million debt reduction this year.

Even more impressive when you take into consideration the significant investment in Arden St during that period and moving to fund our stand alone VFL team etc.

Good on them, especially without having any pokies. Wish more clubs would ditch them.

2021 is not up there yet, but having looked at 2020 data the following is what it says
From the above we can see North received the 5th most from AFL distributions - behind GWS, GC, Brisbane and St Kilda. This distribution list also doesn't factor in how much each club gave the AFL as well

And equal to Carlton, Melbourne and Western Bulldogs...

Well done to North Melbourne. With the redevelopment at Arden Street the future for them in Melbourne is bright. Certainly won't be considering relocation anywhere.
Good on them, but what are the assets like?
They're in a better position than the saints, but now it's time for the next step, and without assets they'll struggle to build

Technically not....from that data it is very interesting about Brisbane, they have done well the past few years and still need so much support?

I guess so but due to it being a covid year hard to gauge what the data would be in a normal year
