    Tassie AFL team

    The Tasmanian government said it will under write an AFL team indefinitely or until it can stand on its own two feet.

    With a proposal like that how can dimwitriou say no
    Now this is a thread that i would expect on the ego -centric, wank session that is redandwhiteonline.com...

    Because Dimwitriou is a selfish idiot.

    Tasmania will be a great place to have another team.

    It will work for sure. You can't say that for the new Gold Coast and West Sydney teams.

    For Andrew Dimwitriou to say Tasmania will never have a team in the AFL

    IS A DISGRACE!

    No way, never, says Demetriou | Mercury - The Voice of Tasmania

    That's the article there.

    Is Dimwitriou, the biggest idiot going around at the moment?

    As mentioned on SEN...they got 15K in Launceston to Hawks v Crows with no local team involved. Imagine how many they would get to their own team.

    Compare that with Sydney....how many would go to a Hawks Crows game up here? Look at the crowds the Roos got up here when they didn't play the Swans....

    Way more support that exists in Tassie than there is for a second team in Sydney IMHO.

    I'm on the Chandwagon!!!

    If you cannot compete for the premiership, it's better to be young and exciting than middle-aged and dowdy.

    I'd only support the entry of a Tasmanian team if it were the result of a Melbourne team relocating there.

    I'm with you Hammo, I said years ago that Richmond should have gone there as the Tassie Tigers.

    Move Hawthorn down to Tasmania and call them the Tassie Hawks. It would've been better if the Hawks and Demons merged in 1996, then you'd have the Tassie Devils.
    I only support one team: The SYDNEY SWANS!!!!!
