Kangaroos Hopping Mad after Triple Walk Out

Demon Dynasty

Given North's on field struggles, plus the financial struggles they will face if Tasmania is given a licence and North lose that funding to play in Hobart, their best foot forward may be a merger.

Given GWS have played in multiple finals series and still can't generate any support and are on AFL financial life support, I think this could be a perfect match. Being associated with a club with some form of history worked for Sydney once, maybe they need to see if lightning can strike twice and rebrand GWS?

Keep the North Melbourne jumper and become the Western Sydney Kangaroos or if you want the prospect of playing more games in Canberra (given its the only place they can get half a crowd) maybe the North Murray Giants?

This opens the 18th spot for Tasmania and in theory everyone is happy. Except the couple of Melbourne based North supports I guess.

    I suspect a new AFL CEO and a new broadcast rights master partner may see North put on a slow drip, like Fitzroy was. Financial hurdles put in place purely coincidentally just above what the club can afford. Then an ultimatum.

    What rubbish, a strong competition is better for everyone.  

    That's all well and good but only if we're stronger....

    It is a good point that whilst Nth is solvent now, I wonder how much they are relying on the Tas Gov sponsorship..

    Two of my brothers are lifelong North supporters.  They have basically given up, find it difficult to care any more and see no future for their club in its current form.  I can't help but feel for them.

    You don't think the name Very North (of) Melbourne will work?

    I mean, they could probably do with some change in their recruiting and list management department tbh...

     

    Unless they were indeed undermined by top management and not able to do their job properly 😛

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
