Good to get him out of the state
Bad that he could do a lot more damage on the big arena

Essendon and Swans what will they do at the end of the year. Will this mean no more protection from the AFL. Perhaps Eddie will apply for the job

What afl assistance? No one can answer this question. Swans are making profits. Not getting any bail outs.

AFL have gifted you a larger salary cap than anyone else, teams were punished for going over the cap yet Swans are given an extra million. Vlad only did this because he knows no one is Sydney would give two shits about the Swans if they weren't winning so he assured them that they would always be around the mark.
Crowds will die when the Swans aren't given a larger salary cap, will be dead in 10 years.

But Demetriou didn't give the Swans any extra in the salary cap. Do some research on why both Sydney teams get the extra salary cap allowance instead of being an ignorant fool.

COL is higher in Perth than Sydney?
but since Western Australians are real footy fans they don't need their teams to get a helping hand from the AFL because they are not bandwagoners.

where he let himself and the AFL down very very badly was in the handling of the various scandals that have happened, melbourne tanking, adelaide salary cap, essendon drug scandal. all of those seem to have been handled very poorly, and that i think is why it is time for him to go
you serious???
See my post for reasons. Can't deny that the game as a spectacle got better under Andy D and the two expansion clubs are a massive deal too
See, this is why I think he's been ordinary-to-bad for the game. Bringing in two expansion sides in places that we should've have expanded to, have been detrimental to the game IMO. Plenty of reasons why... which i won't go into here.

Sydney residents have more choice so that makes them bandwagoners? Think harder.

Yes, Swans are given extra cash so they don't have to bottom out as the AFL knows crowds will desert them and they will fold.

We bottomed out while getting the salary cap allowance. Explain that.

In the last 10 years you have only missed the finals once in 2009, two years later you won the grand final so you were clearly tanking. The fact is this cost of living allowance is a load of bullshit.
