If he left Sydney, it would surely be to a club that is a chance at a flag.

There's heat on north to get back up the ladder quickly to avoid being swallowed by the Tassie license.
Why is there pressure on us to thwart off a Tassie move? Tell me one reason why NMFC would move to Tassie.

I admire your tenacity and defence of the club and you've got plenty to hang your hat on, record membership, debt free, out of gaming, all of which are noble ( no pun ) goals but even you must concede the AFL shipping North off to Tassie is a very real possibility. It has to be and it's not "Why would North move?", it's "Why wouldn't the AFL move them?".

If the AFL choose to do this, they’ll be funding 100% of the cost.
The Tasmanian government has already stated they will only fund a new Tassie team, not a relocated side.
North aren’t moving.
On another note, I was in Melb on the weekend & happened to be in a pub run by a North Melbourne backer. There was a meeting taking place out the back consisting of North Melbourne heavy hitters from the 70’s, 80’s & 90’s. Change is coming re the board & possibly the CEO.

Because the AFL can’t force anything, it’s not within their powers. They couldn’t make them move to the Gold Coast years ago so it ain’t happening now. They could make life difficult for them and try to push for it to happen but if North stand firm they can’t do much about itBooney wrote:Dutchy wrote:tigerpie wrote:There may be one other reason.

I don't think it is a possibility at all, if the AFL couldn't get us to the Gold Coast when we were mortgaged to them, how will a Tassie move happen? If the AFL have that power then why haven't they used it before?
We were told we would die on the vine if we don't take the Gold Coast offer, what happened afterwards is the complete opposite.

Even 11 games, crowd of 15k @ an average of $30 comes to $5 million, half of players payments
