Maybe they should focus more energy into getting the participation rates up since they seem to claim they have the largest NPL clubs in the Country.

It also shows why ACT and Tasmania bids would be so successful if you apply the logic for clubs growing their own Junior elite schemes.
well, yes and no. i assume the %ages shown are the proportion of the state population that plays football. therefore, Victoria's 15% = just under 1,000,000 against Tasmania's total population of 520K or ACT's 410K. however, if you take into account the two Vic teams already, 1 team per 500K would justify the ACT/Tas inclusion.
