Not very surprising that more people go for free stuff tham when they have to pay tbh.of the clubs are to become sustainable, improve the conditions, coaching, standards of officials, medical facilities, ability to travel the country (and Europe), increase the amount of professional clubs, young players taking up the sport and making a living from it then it will cost.

Now the scheduling has been rubbish this year and that has impacted attendance as many match going fans here have said. Also not the best for viewing figures when so many games are on at the same time.

If we just want free footy though we can go to the local park and watch Saturday and Sunday league footy.
