I obviously prefer us to have all our home games at the 'G but the more I think about this it's a disgrace how given we need extra funds by playing home games interstate we got screwed out of playing in Hobart by North and the AFL in the end for nothing. Unlike playing a token one-off game in Darwin or Cairns, playing say both games in Hobart would at least be following on our natural Tassie connection given how many great players from Tassie have played for us. It's also Aussie Rules heartland and based on the Launceston games us and Hawthorn would have two of the largest supporter bases down there. A way to gain more memberships and additional dollars. Thanks AFL and your North nomads!  ::)

Thank **** this never eventuated !

We are a big Melbourne club and don't need to ever play any home games anywhere but Melbourne. I wouldn't have renewed my membership if this happened.

Melbourne should just bite the bullet and relocate.

The Tassie Demons works perfectly.

The dawks lose 10,000 members

And the NoMads are left to try and find another place in Australia to find some supporters. 

....It writes itself.  :thumbsup
The club that keeps giving.
