afl in carins
Richmond has announced that they will play 1 game per year for the next 3 years in cairns against the GC Suns. this is a great move by the afl to get afl into north qld but having richmond play gc is not the best move. cairns is the prefect location (and pretty much last opportunity) for north melbourne to find a second home. afl has a long history in norht qld, rugby gets good crowds to see the cowboys play in townsville so i think 3 games per year in cairns would be a great move to spread the game north. Richmond have plenty of supporters in melbourne and should waste their time with selling home games, on the contrast north melbourne is desperate, has few supporters and is happy selling home games
AFL / North Melbourne after the 3 year (1 game a season) trial has finish please push the roos to cairns for at least 3 to 4 games per year. that way they stay afloat financial, the game spread north, and minimal melbourne sports fans are affected
The only other locations for the Roos are country victoria, darwin, or some other part of nsw. act will have 3 to 4 gsw games so that market is taken
Whats your thoughts on north melbourne playing in north qld?
