Surely if AFL ever had to bail them out.
Next time they want to move the club the AFL won't let them refuse.

This club is a disgrace.

Who cares.  Glad its all over now they can concentrate on playing in front of massive home crowds of 15000.

You're being to generous Tucker ...15K they'll be lucky to 10K to their home games against low drawing sides.

When they play teams like us they'll get 35-40K and yell from the rood at Etihad that they can draw crowds.. problem will be of the say 35k; 28k will be tiger fans

I'm a generous man Willy.  ;D

Yep remember our game at Etihad against them in 2009. Our end of the ground where the cheer squad was, was full and their end had two full bays empty with a splattering of fans in their cheer squad. The crowd was further supplemented by neutrals who wanted to get out of the rain and have a night on the town and looking to kill time as well as those people in reserved seats on the second level.
Their lifeblood is not the few members they have but home games against the Big 4 clubs who have drawing power and will boost up their meagre coffers.

Exactly Tucker

I expect them to be extinct or the AFL will relocate them to Tassie within the next 3 years. And when the AFL shunt off to Tassie the pot of gold they were offerded last time wont be there  :clapping

The Norf Big Footy stuff is hilarious. There latest ideas have been 1) target the jews = result, they realise they cant target the jews coz Melbourne and afew other clubs have got all the jewish supporters 2) target the greek community = result they realise they cant target the greeks because Richmond and Collingwood have them covered, 3) They are now up to the Africans. Give it afew days and we'll find out what theyre thinking on that is.

Norf supporters are getting desperate, only 21,000 members just days out from the start of the season. Its not looking flash for them!
