What the? Some of you won’t watch anymore cause some MV fanboys are fuckwits? Do you also hand back your drivers license whenever footage of hoons appears?

AFL lovers are right, football fans are pussies.

>Is anyone here gonna stop following the a league?

Not me.

Although as a Perth Glory supporter I know our chances of making the finals aren't great, and if we don't make it, I'm going to be hoping that no NSW based teams make the GF.

I've always said I love finals and that we should embrace them as a great and unique part of Aussie sporting culture.
Deciding the champion with one match on the last game of the season is fantastic, and so much more exciting than a team wrapping the title up with 3 weeks to go.
That said; after the APL's decision nothing would make me happier than seeing a record low crowd at a GF in Sydney between two non-Sydney teams.

Alternatively, had the APL made the decision that the FFA cup final was to be held in Sydney, I would have had no problem with it.

We could get rid of the Grand Final and make first past the post the Champion with positions on the ladder determining prize money and seeding into the end of season knock out ALM Cup.  Market the Cup as a separate competition with states bidding to hold the final for 3 years and have the sponsorship going in to separate prize money and competition costs.

PS.  There is no club in my state to follow live but I will still keep watching on TV.  What would make me walk away is if active supporters start/keep acting as if everything in football is accountable to them.  They can add to the game day experience but they are only a small part of the fans of each club and their views are not those of all/most fans.

??? There are clubs in EVERY state and territory mate?
