It doesn't have to be your idea to be a good idea. Maybe the other 7 clubs could do something similar and benefit.
By the way the clubs aren't whinging or complaining, just a few minority supporters. So who are the real tree huggers.

If the clubs aren't whinging why are they going to vote in rules that limit the AFL sides to 13 players.
You may also find Port wont be allowed to play at Alberton shortly and will have to play all their games away.
You are right in they probably wont be kicked out but life will be made much more uncomfortable for them
you are positive that they are going to be voted in? [emoji28], Tony Abbott thought he would be prime minister today also.

Reckon this vote will be unanimous. Clubs are filthy at the current setup and the clubs know they will realistically never be kicked out so this would be the next best thing.
where they might have problems is the fact that the competition is not being dominated by them. Clearly the current rules are not precluding the other 8 teams from being successful.
They will add something in there like rookie players are not included in the 13 and the 13 will go to 15. Status quo[emoji106]

The clubs were spooked by the Crows run this year. If they had made finals they would of won it almost.
Took a very good Norwood side to stop it happening last year.
From the 2 clubs ive spoke too, they are pushing for 13 including rookies. Last year Port played 20 in the GF.
Clubs also concerned about finals qualifications and they are pushing for a few tweaks in that also. Not sure how much support there is for that from other clubs but it definately needs tightening up.
