Women's League

I can't see the AFL tipping in vast amounts of money if there is no return on their investment. I realise they throw money at GWS & GC but they are strategically located clubs who tie in importantly with their gazillion dollar TV rights deal.

The other issue that concerns me most is if this doesn't succeed, how exposed might we be when our finances are already not where we want them to be.

You can't see, but thats what they do....long term goals.

Letting women play in a national comp will not have any immediate benefit, but mothers who play are more likely to let their kids play (both boys and girls). It ensures a level of growth that may take decades to show.
