Re: Rank the Codes in the ACT
You would think that if the giants weren’t playing in the act amd doing well and indeed, better, there than in weste Sydney, that the AFL would plonk a team there already to go in or around the time Tassie come on board. It’s a perfect time to strike - but I feel they have nobbled themselves with GWS. To be honest- the simple easier decision would be to admit they stuffed up with the implementation of gws and move them lock stick and barrel to Canberra - however longterm - and the much more challenging decision, is to persist in the huge market, still untapped, of western Sydney. To do the later though would require a big change of direction and focus for gws. The first thing would becoming more attuned to the working class roots of the area.

Sydney Swans have never been popular in the west..
i just could not see the AFL giving up on 3 million people and growing
however a ACT Team is only a matter of time...
Especially considering Wagga Wagga and Albury are close by bringing in even more fans

Wagga is as close as Campbelltown is to Canberra
Albury is closer to derpbourne then it is to Canberra
they come to a game or 2 each year , thats it
a fulltime fumbles & stumbles ACT team is ... NEVER .. happening

What would be funny to compare what area has raised more players for there Western Sydney for the AFL or Melbourne for the NRL?
