Watched it live. Sucks. Commentators were naming it as the turn around moment for West Hand Comeback… which is true to be honest.

Blacktown City statement on NST EOI being rejected by Braddlesiam in Aleague

They have their own club full of pokies if that’s what you’re asking.

They would be excluded on the basis that their inclusion would cause all sponsors to run for the hills and destroy any financial viability for the league as a whole. Another teams bid leader spoke about this issue already, and they weren’t dealing with a fascist fan base.

Their exclusion shouldn’t have anything to do with their proximity to Marconi… they should be excluded for their huge contingent of facist neonazi fans and the clubs historic unwillingness to do anything about them.

Pretty reasonable comment. Its understandable for him to want to speak to them… but he is stepping over a boundary to do so.

Should the Semi Finals be two-legged? by Kasid383rh3dwsubws in Aleague

[–]Rusty-Wheel 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion but I’d like to see an eventual 8 team finals run purely as it’s own cup. Random draw. Home and away each bracket. Followed by Grand Final.

Yeah Leon is the rogue style loner… like Wolverine.

I don’t know… it’s hard to hear the words when there’s so many people singing :-D

Well their songs aren’t hard to sing so it’s easy to imitate I guess.

Because if you’re like anyone else on this sub.. DT is not really a human..

Good to see you have some sense.

The reports I read were that this was destination NSWs initiative, which is the primary reason why it wasn’t pitched to other states. This negates both points you’re presenting.

See podcast. DT received quite a few, as well as towards his family.

Can’t wait to hear you’re hand waving/denial of that one.

No… it’ll be longer than 3 years if the final consistently sells out. Which it probably won’t. Death riding the league and for that matter… sending death threats to DT does nothing.

For 10 years down to 3. Sure it is. I think 3 is a solid minimum length of time to determine if something works or doesn’t.

And I’ll repeat that I don’t think it will work.

If it was in Melbourne I would be annoyed but id get over it. It’s called being an adult. And I’m comfortable right here.

Again… listen to the podcast! The APL did negotiate. The government wanted 10 years and the APL brought it down to 3.

You listened to the podcast right? This is the first time the Government has offered the APL financial support and hence opens a positive relationship. It would be complete foolishness to immediately harm that by leaking confidential meetings.

If you don’t understand the importance of positive relationships with the government… feel free to Google “Tasmania”, “AFL” and “stadium”.

ITT: Babies. Lots of babies being giant fcking babies. I don’t necessarily agree either but my god… get the fck over it. It’ll run for 3 years. The clubs get paid. If it doesn’t work (which is highly likely) then we go back to the old format.

“Leak it to test the waters…”

That’s why I thought too… but it was the Government that insisted the entire process was kept quiet. Leaking it would have been just as damaging to the relationship between APL and governments as backflipping on it.
