    Football missed a golden chance not getting involved in the No#1 sorts ground redevelopment.

    Once the big dumb loud fast cars take over the city no one will bat an eyelid at the stinky ass Jets.

    Yes what a race it is when the FFA ain't even close to being interested

    High time some of these proposition either shut up until it on the table or actually deliver the FFA are compelling proposal of concrete cash so they can't say no


    This rhetoric and BS every few months about this area or that area being HAL ready is a joke
    FFS Newy isn't even HAL ready and we have won the ****ing thing

    Wish the ****wits at FFA would just let the ethnics back in

    I really think these ****s running the game have just lost the plot with what they are doing with the HAL

    Don't let the ethnics in but Roar have how much Dutch heritage??
    Smurfs are Sydney City reincarnation

    So why can't the Italians Greeks Send Croats or Pakis have a team ??

    Like they have given the Gypos a team and they are a different species altogether

    apparently we are doing this.

    summary:
    - 2 new teams
    - introduced for/by the 2019/20 season
    - more details to come next month
    - decision by the end of this year on the teams

    i'll believe it when i see it.

    Another Melb or Sydney based side will only result in a shifting of sand. But knowing Gallop and his uncanny knack of always delivering decisions based on 99% incompetence Sydney or Melb it will be.

    With Gallop steering the ship whats the point in a rudder, There is a bumper sticker right there.

    Can you really blame them? Canberra gets games and has piss poor showing. The regionals just don't stack up. We are most certainly an exception. Anyone who is interested in expansion needs to look at 30 year population predictions city by city. You'll understand why Gallop and co are looking where they are.

    Gallop wants some hybrid of the St George , Sutherland Shire and Wollongong outfit. I can tell you with absolute certainty after living in the Gong for 21yrs not one potential Wolves supporter has any kindred allegiance to anything shire related and having spent many years working in Taren point the feeling toward anything south of Waterfall is quite mutual. On top of that throw in the lack of love between the Shire and St George area Gallop is dead set pulling his own pud on this one.

    As for a third Melb team , how many times do the seagulls outnumber Heart fans ?.

    so you got any evidence for that claim, or just jumping to conclusions? don't forget, every team that has come here has not been a Canberra team.

    30 year prediction for the canberra population, just under 600,000 https://apps.treasury.act.gov.au/dem...ions/act/total

    and that's just the ACT. population projections for the towns surrounding are a bit harder to get, but Queanbeyan will be about 60,000 by then, Goulburn will probably be around 40,000, Yass around 15,000, plus growth in a number of smaller towns probably contributing another 40,000. all of these are closer (in travel time) than say, singleton to Newcastle.

    you can't keep fishing in the same pond and wonder why you catch less fish.
