IT IS NOT JUST AN AFL VENUE The point of the roof is so it won’t just be a 7 football game stadium and a multi event facility that will guarantee schedule security for any entertainment events that would otherwise have to take into account variability of weather which is very much the case with...

Brent Costello @ win news/ SEN Chris Rowbottom @ ABC John Ralph @ herald sun David Lithgow @ SEN Are good starts

Not sure the lyrics after that would pass pc muster. Also hard to make a song it’s more a war chant.

If you’re asking why so much if you haven’t noticed the first thing to be hit with inflation is construction. Everyone is basing costs off pre COVID amounts. When the stadium at the domain was first floated in the 90’s the cost looked astronomical. Now it’s a pittance. If you invest in...

Pros: helps retention of players who don’t want to travel in their localities. Means a strong upper tier for localities. (Hobart & NW) Rep games for N, NW & S will mean something again. Cons: lack of a professionalism that a VFL team may not have the number of list spots to cover. Force any...

Please Chief change my allegiance to Tassie

This is a controversial one but I’d love us for the first game to be against gws or Gold Coast as we’ll pack out the stadium for the first game anyway and would be great to see the amount of pure Tasmanians supporting our team.

I have the themsong all ready to go for that line of thinking too…

As a young Launcestonian can confirm. Hobart’s night life is good but that’s from my perspective. Wouldn’t be perfectly serviceable for most though and I don’t think the biggest party goers would be best suited down here anyway as word spreads pretty quick.

The only known theme song I know of is just the tigers theme song but instead of Tigerland, it’s Tasmania. This of course won’t work in the AFL. I was hoping that our theme song would be based off an old nursery/sea shanty like the classic theme songs. E.g. The teddy bears picnic tune If we...

A whole study was done and Mac point was the best option by far.

If there ever is a vote for a team jumper it will come down to how many choices are given. There will always be an amount wanting the origin guernsey but the amount of those wanting different designs will be split amongst themselves.

Our overcoming of Vic Bias is just getting a team 🤣

Thanks for the insight. Jack Jumpers is an awesome name and fits the game and team well. Not to mention loved the Tassie inside joke where the mainland had no idea what a jack jumper was. Very few AFL guernseys feature their mascot and even less from the traditional vfl teams so it’s not that...

Like the originality but unfortunately would be linked to colonial expansion and so would be just another quagmire of annoying outrage.

The big problem with the draft picks that are being forced to be traded that there is no equal force coming from the the established teams to even the trades meaning Tas will be paying massive bids for barely list cloggers.

Happy New Year, hopefully this is the year we get the nod for a Tassie team.

Hawks are a guaranteed 1 year where as north deal has a rip cord clause so can be left at any point.

Less rain mm overall more days where precipitation occurs.

What is giving me confidence is the lack of noise coming from the Tas Gov. If there were any problems we would be hearing a lot more from them but it’s all quiet other than the odd nod to Tas Labour shooting itself in the foot repeatedly. (I mean really, it’s perfectly acceptable to say your...

Too late more like hope they stop procrastinating.

Well we now have our complete list of malcontents before going in Collingwood, Sydney, Port Adelaide, Gold Coast & Melbourne.

Eddie/ Collingwood still want the North Melbourne/Tas “super team”

Collingwood appear to view the league through the lense that all clubs should be “profitable” on their own without taking into account $ from the broadcast deal which I’m guessing they would want divided evenly between clubs. This is not how the afl currently operates and if it did would be as...

Fixed

Last segment is Tasmania. His only source is Collingwood. I swear Collingwood are not the AFL and this small minded Vic boys club bias is bullshit.

Just been no news since then other than negative Tom Brown. I swear he is just barracking for this all to fall over.

Different thread.

Players stay if the culture is strong. Have the right people set up the right culture and that becomes less of an issue.
