The Merger

[beelzebub 23,383]

its still school holidays isnt it

[rpfc 28,779]

nah its legit

So you can confirm that people at AFL HQ are talking about possible talks this year about a club being relocated or clubs merging at some point in the short to medium term future?

If you do not wish to give your source, or who is talking about these possible talks, would you mind narrowing down what they might be talking about? And when, after the talks become fruitful, these talks come to fruition?

Up until 2017 there HAS to be 9 games per week for at least 18 weeks a year due to the contractual obligations to FOXTEL.

If this was a topic discussing whether it should be considered it'd flow, but this is absolute crap.

Mods, I've been given warnings for putting up information and not backing it up, these threads ruin Demonland.

News coming out of AFL is that some stage this year they will hold serious talks about a merger/relocation.

Now I don't know the teams it involves but the usual names are being thrown up (us, north doggies)

Not sure what to think about this one

Another merger thread HD?

From studying your post and profile picture I can only come to one conclusion:

You are either Mark Neeld or a deluded Mark Neeld 'brown shirt' who is seeking revenge and will stop at nothing in order to take down the mfc.

Feel free to fill in the blanks but I think I hit the nail on the head.

All we need to complete this thread is a contribution from ENYAW after which it can be closed.

I think it's about time Damian Barrett changed his avatar...

And yes! This thread just needs a little ENYAW to top it off.

Maybe some mjt rambling too.

Merge Essendrug with Melbourne Heart.

Yeah, reading his meanderings is like being on drugs without the expense or risk of arrest.

[Canberra Demon 159]

nah its legit

Yeah it seems legit...

[Machsy 2,858]

I refuse to believe a legit MFC supporter can look at an avatar of Neeld without feeling disgust and needing to change it.

Not necessarily for the man himself, but what he represents for the club.

[Supermercado 2,802]

A merger can only happen if another team is introduced as the TV rights agreement requires an 18 team competition. Can't see that happening - but relocation of a team to Tasmania isn't beyond the realms of possibility.

They could merge two and put Tassie into the open slot but good luck getting Hawthorn to exit Tasmania while they're making millions out of it.

Having said that I wouldn't put it past the AFL to do a screwjob deal with the Tassie government behind Hawthorn and North's back to give them a team if that's what they really wanted - which I'm not sure they do.

Some people believe that The Church of Scientology is a legitimate religion in which they will all ascend to outer space.

Great clubs have great and chequered histories.

Move on.

has it happened yet?
Someone let me know when it does please. Don't wanna rock up to the Round 1 game in my "now old" 2014 MFC jumper, that'd just look silly.

Biff, I have a number of my family mrembers either current or past members of this Church. One of them was in the boat with Mr Hubbard as he hide from the FBI.

So whats your point?

That explains plenty.

I hope you have not fallen prey to a Miscavige of justice.

Given your contacts DF, perhaps you could organise some sponsorship from Thetans inc.
