Laughable some of the comments in here.
A genuine National Second Tier is in the offing and without so much as single factoid to hand, we see the "answer" to non-specific (or even extant?) problems is to somehow combine some of the NPL Vic with some of the NPL NSW and call it something that it absolutely isn't. It wouldn't be a second division or even a second tier. It would be a pathetic recasting of some of the NPL and completely invisible and irrelevant to the football nation.
So instead of a pyramid that any club in the country could aspire to reach its peak, it would be a self abusing, closed off rump of a molehill, that represents everything currently, and historically, with the game in this country.
It would be dead at birth.
Deservedly so.

+x+x+x+x+x+x24 clubs is pretty decent. A few years of P&R and hopefully the pool gets big enough to support 3 divisions Lets hope 2 divisions are viable first though... Be lucky to get a decent 8 out of that list. Kind of got feeling this won't be starting in 2024. which ones do you have doubts about? SU58 and suncoast (too small a population) are the only ones that stood out to me Well... I'd be only looking at the return of the NSL. Knights. South Preston Wolves Marconi Olympic. Can't see much from Brisbane. Not that I know the market well I always thought the Lions were the only one that could step up. The fact they haven't says a lot. These guys started the roar. So they know better about what they're getting into. Adelaide. Nothing exciting either. Adelaide City is not the City of old. Watch the rhetoric from JJ. Something along the lines of "we have delayed the beginning of the NST, until we work with the club's and prepare them better etc etc " @grazorblade As discussed here. Add in SU58 and APIA making it 10 Sorry 8
Love Football

Campbelltown City Northeastern Metrostars West Torren Birkalla West Adelaide Surprised West Adelaide Hellas are willing to merge and give up so much history in the process It just goes to show you just how much being part of a national league means to these clubs. Most likely FOMO by one or a few people within these clubs. Like most on the list really. Am I the only one who isn't really excited by this list?? Don't get carried away when you see a club name. E.g. West Adelaide. Adelaide City. These clubs are a shadow of their former selves. As I said, I'd struggle to find 8 suitable bids. Who would you rather have on this list? More failed franchise's? I'm surprised Canberra United didn't do An EOI seeing as though they already have a Women's AL side. It's not a matter of who I would prefer on the list. Im just taking the rose tinted glasses off, being realistic and simply asking questions. An 8 team league is all is see at the moment. If in fact it gets off the ground in 2024 I think 10-12 is achievable in the first few years with the rest in a champion league style 3rd division if they are interested in competing on the national stage. This will soon separate the fully committed clubs from the wishful thinkers What does achievable exactly mean?? You think there are 10-12 clubs capable of turning pro to some degree next season?? GC Knights and Avondale were amatuer clubs 10 years ago and now all of a sudden they're second division candidates?? They're basically vessels built on the ego and $$ of one bloke. Sorry. I'm just not getting carried away. As much as I believe it's necessary for our game. I'll tread with caution I'm hearing you and I'm basing it off nothing but a massive assumption that at least 10 of the clubs have crunched the numbers and believe that they have everything in place to take that next step. I too believe it is necessary for the game but I don't believe it will be the silver bullet that will sort out all the the games issues in this country as some seem to think. The biggest benefit for me will be the consolidation of the NPL playing pool, more quality matches at a higher intensity for the top 100 or so players outside the AL. The benefit to football will be far greater than the benefit to any of the individual clubs. Agreed. 💯 As well as a better competition for coaches to show what they can do.

It's a new entity. They went bust. Merged with Olympic? New club started. Tried to bid for A-league spot. Presided over $5M and constructed a half built stadium. Which they still can't use. West Adelaide struggle to be a strong SA team. And claims of them being a powerhouse are simply wrong.

+x+x+x+x“With no natural rivals and no cultural background that is fixed to a nationality or country, we can confidently claim to be a club all of Brisbane can support, regardless of where you play, who you support or where your cultural heritage lies"
The assessment of teams for the NST should consider this example as one (there are others as well) of the most critical criterias required for entry. Easy to say BUT, South Melbourne, Adelaide City, West Adelaide (combining with another), Heidleberg, Gold Coast Kings, Melbourne Knights, Sydney Utd (don't deserve a spot), Brisbane Olympic, Sydney Olympic, Apia, Marconi, Canberra Croatia, Preston Lions and Rockdale illnden - Among Others, have ethnic roots. Take them out and we have no comp. Put aside the 'anglo monoethnic perspective,' and embrace the teams. The best that fits as much of the 'evaluation criteria' as possible. There are 5. This one will be major....... Such additional criteria as Football Australia may determine are in the best interests of football in Australia. ...and have three teams in your competition. All the rest are of migrant heritage. Doesn't matter what heritage, let the best that meets the criteria get the nod. BTW - Brisbane City for example are of Italian heritage but are not like say the Melb and Sydney Croatias, that fight the system and keep to their own. Let's not forget............ Such additional criteria as Football Australia may determine are in the best interests of football in Australia I predict City will be one of the teams selected.

+x+x+x+x+x+xBrisbane United is a Weird one It's a joint venture in that there are 3 members. Strikers, Wynnum and 1 other minnow are starting members but other clubs can join. See Rabiehs video Looks like any 'member' won't have to forego its current league spot like all the others You're right, it's a strange one. What I was trying to address with my point was the claim that Brisbane Strikers "aren't there". They're very much there. Brisbane Strikers and Wynnum joined the venture. They're using Brisbane Striker's original brand. They're playing at Perry Park. Other clubs can come in to their membership, but they will be feeders under the United banner and from what I understand, won't be considered the equal member of BS/WW in the overall structure. So Olympic and City can't play locally but "Strikers" can wtf are you even on about? they have their separate bids so obviously they're not part of BU's membership. They'll play wherever their bid proposes Did you have a 3 second deadline to meet to get something negative out of your keyboard without reading anything? Olympic and City are forced to drop out of NPL but Strikers get to play on If they aren't a 'Strikers' bid then Brisbane United have no history, no ground, no fans, and are somehow going to get a spot ? No rivals in Brisbane ? Assuming the other 2 won't get in, I guess. BU could at least flush out what the FA are really up to. I don't rate you as a poster tbh. blah blah something negative. Cool, just what we need. Jog on Good point , well argued and based on relevant facts.

Great to see many clubs put their hat into the ring with the EOI's, wish them all the best in the next stage but clearly there is appetite for an NSD potentially starting season, cant wait!
A shame no team from WA which you can understand but plenty of options all across the country nevertheless.

They're using Brisbane Striker's original brand. They're playing at Perry Park. Other clubs can come in to their membership, but they will be feeders under the United banner and from what I understand, won't be considered the equal member of BS/WW in the overall structure. So Olympic and City can't play locally but "Strikers" can wtf are you even on about? they have their separate bids so obviously they're not part of BU's membership. They'll play wherever their bid proposes Did you have a 3 second deadline to meet to get something negative out of your keyboard without reading anything? Olympic and City are forced to drop out of NPL but Strikers get to play on If they aren't a 'Strikers' bid then Brisbane United have no history, no ground, no fans, and are somehow going to get a spot ? No rivals in Brisbane ? Assuming the other 2 won't get in, I guess. BU could at least flush out what the FA are really up to.

Krayem has good intentions but keep in mind that he is saying all the right narritives to conjure up support with a solid fanbase.

+x+x“With no natural rivals and no cultural background that is fixed to a nationality or country, we can confidently claim to be a club all of Brisbane can support, regardless of where you play, who you support or where your cultural heritage lies"
The assessment of teams for the NST should consider this example as one (there are others as well) of the most critical criterias required for entry. Easy to say BUT, South Melbourne, Adelaide City, West Adelaide (combining with another), Heidleberg, Gold Coast Kings, Melbourne Knights, Sydney Utd (don't deserve a spot), Brisbane Olympic, Sydney Olympic, Apia, Marconi, Canberra Croatia, Preston Lions and Rockdale illnden - Among Others, have ethnic roots. Take them out and we have no comp. Put aside the 'anglo monoethnic perspective,' and embrace the teams. The best that fits as much of the 'evaluation criteria' as possible. There are 5. This one will be major....... Such additional criteria as Football Australia may determine are in the best interests of football in Australia.

Thats a continuation of the British Australia Culture in the 50's, 60's and 70's, when a swaith of new migrants from Europe were arriving and ofcourse not embraced, which is the very reason football is still coming in at around fourth or fifth, behind Afl, Nrl, Cricket and maybe Basketball.
