Former Collingwood president Eddie McGuire has laid out a detailed, bold plan to introduce a stand-alone Tasmanian team, plus another club, and make the AFL truly national by 2028.

Oh my god, They've been telling us for years they had a National competition :(/ :(/ :(/
Australia's number 1 sport RUGBY LEAGUE. Preferred by more Australians than any other :cheers:

That's incredible!! Fumblehouse is demanding $40M per year "forever" from Govt's. Dead set got the hide of a herd elephants the fumblers.

You don't need to be an intellectual giant to see the Tassy Gov't response: "Really? How much do Gov'ts put into individual teams in NSW per year? What about Qld?? Oh......and WA.............and ummmmm.............oh yeah............... SA...............and what about Victardia?????? Gilty 'ol boy..... jam it up ya a__e pal!!!!!!!!!!!!
