While I am not against an expansion of the AFL surely Tasmania would be a better fit for an AFL club? Aurora Stadium can be modified more to get more fans in, the South can house a ground there's a nice block of land where the Showgrounds stands as that was going to be made a ground anyway.
What I mean is, in 1996 the Glenorchy City Council, had an idea to build a ground at the Showgrounds and moving the racing from there to the Elwick Race Course. Which now the races have all moved to the Race Course, and the Showgrounds isn't used as often as it once was.
A Tassie AFl side may be the thing to save Tasmanian football as there has been a problem here for over a decade. What are your thoughts on this? Now I know something will need to be done to get the North and South to agree on what is to be done but I think a Tassie AFL side could be the start of something good.
