As much as I hate Norwood if you put them in tomorrow they'd get bigger crowds than Norf and have a pre-existing rivalry with Port.
Nah. Port supporters under 45 are going to be 'Nor-who?'. Norwood had their chance and ran behind mummies skirts when caught wanting to leave home.

If they were put in tomorrow they'd rival North for worst crowds. There's no 'hate Port AND Adelaide, also don't like any other team' mythical base that'd fill their Membership ranks. This isn't WA where West Coast memberships are a waiting list. Anyone supporting Port or Crows can get a membership (shit, both almost kidnap people off the street with the promise to release them, if they'll take a free 3-game membership from them).

They have a couple of thousand members now and the thousand (at best) Crows membership who used to be die-hard Norwood who'd move across to follow them are probably in those couple of thousand members already. If they straight swapped Norwood for North, sure it'd make the competition fairer, with one less Vic team, but they'd be a basket case, that'd make our 2008-2012 period look like we were a powerhouse. Except no extenuating circumstances causing it, just no supporters.
 
If Norwood wants to come into the AFL they should be dragged to the courts by the other SANFL clubs.
No way should they get an easy way into the AFL after what we went through.

Besides the Crows are an extension of Norwood, they can linger and go to waste in the SANFL

Serves them right. If they hadn't been at the forefront of blocking our entry, they would have got the second licence and been in the AFL for over 2 decades already. They can now wallow in insignificance
 
I only brought up Norwood from the bullshit aspect that Victoria can have a handful of little clubs while apparently the two biggest heartlands outside of the 'sportin' capital' can't sustain three clubs.. it's rubbish we've all swallowed.

Norwood should switch from footy to real-estate. Their only future significancy is turning their oval into a shopping mall. We all know this the final outcome.
 
Nathan Broad and values. lol
 
6 forced changes for Carlton, & 5 out of their 9 ins (Sunday game) are debutants.

They're gonna get demolished
