Central District will not enter the AFL.
The club is just not big enough to be a viable AFL entity. They should stick to the SANFL.
No SANFL club is big enough IMO, but to say that Norwood are (as you previously stated) and we aren't is to ignore the level of financial strength the CDFC has built up. On a solely financial level (ignoring tradition or history) Centrals would be well ahead of any other SANFL option (including Norwood.)
Will never happen though......
and as a Fitzroy fan I'd like to respond to Adrian Shelton, Fitzroy does have a team in the VAFA (Fitzroy Reds, formerly University Reds who then entered into a naming rights deal with the Fitzroy FC and now play from Brunswick Street Oval, Fitzroy's traditional home ground) and did enter into a sort of joint venture with Coburg to form the Coburg-Fitzroy Lions for the 1999 season I think.
