They can also pick up to 16 uncontracted players (one from each club) to strengthen their list (and with AFL $ behind them they will land some good players), so I think they will be competitive enough.
However, I don't understand why they were allowed to have red, white, blue and yellow as their colours considering they conflict with so many other teams - it is madness.
Why couldn't they choose something distinctive? The whole purpose of having a central administrative body is to make sure that things like this don't happen. They will need a different "away" strip for every second match - that is not the sort of thing that you want happening when you are trying to establish a brand. Very, very silly.
