Re: Should the Suns play in Darwin/NT

The only comparison the NRL has is the Melbourne Storm ( newish team in non traditional area) & rarely they take home games away from Melb if ever its all about $$ the Suns lose money ( heaps) as an operation as do GWS , they both bleed it the AFL owns them both & need to recoup some of thes...

I think the Suns are doing okay. GWS on the other hand - think they need to really focus on endearing themselves to local community. 1. Get rid of the “greater” 2. No home gsmes in Canberra.
