Money

Good to see we got a big chunk of the fund strategy. Hopefully we can use it to build up the club so we are less reliant on it in the future.

Very good to hear :) Hope this is just another stepping stone to the big thing.

Finally the AFL has done something right ;) Haha ;D

Didn't hear anything about Port Adelaide though...? Thought they would get a bit.

RB I suspect all clubs will benefit including Port as article did not mention Brisbane and we are to receive $7.2m over the next 3 years. With the article saying the AFL wants 18 viable clubs then no doubt Port will probably also be receieving at least the basic $3.25m.

Yeah I know all clubs will get a fair bit of money, but was expecting if they wanted 18 viable clubs that Port would be offered the most or right up there with us and the Bullies. They have the most debt I'm pretty sure, and on field performances aren't really helping.

based on this article looks like Port are getting the same as us (Lions) and Sydney.
