How will byes work with an uneven draw ?
If it’s a standard H/A season it works fine. But with 3 extra rounds would mean teams play more than others ?

I wouldn't trust News.com 2. the idea of 'rounds' is an unnecessary restriction 3. long weekends , School Holidays 'Festivals of football' etc all allow all kinds of jumbling of fixtures 4. Feel sorry for whoever isn't invited to the Unite Round

Feel sorry for whoever isn't invited to the Unite Round lol made me spit my coffee this one :) Yep, in applying actual though to this (rather than just asking the AI for the lulz) - that's the one that's going to fuck everything up isn't it. Full home and away season (With byes) can be done in 28 rounds. So the 29th Unite Round is going to fuck things up, because 1 team won't be playing that extra game... EDIT - never mind me I was doing maths of playing 13 teams with a 14th bye. Home and Away season with byes is 26 Rounds (24 games), so to make Unite Round work, there will be (A) one team not invited obviously, (B) A couple rounds with multiple byes, so that each team can get to the 27 games. So 29 Matchdays all together still.

Obviously not ideal, but glad to see more teams with Auckland coming in.

I might be in the minority here, but to be honest, the whole bye thing doesn't bother me too much.

They should be either playing home + away, or like the old days where there's an extra third game against EVERY team, not just some. Reeks of AFL to me. NRL started doing it too once they re-added Rabbitohs.

Old and wise mate told me years ago when news start to attack something you can be sure its about to expand, and News don't want them too.
After ignoring us for years, News seem to find another fault line weekly,

To be honest the bye does not worry me. I just want to make sure that each team plays every team just twice - home and away.
As for Unite round lets retweak it - at least for the men. 13 ALM teams plus 8, 10 or 12? NST teams playing on the Unite weekend. Depending when it is scheduled either CCM or SFC could possibly miss out to even up the numbers (depending on ACL2 and ACLE scheduling and the respective teams progress. TBH the ACL2 seems to be less arduous without the multiple stages compared to the AFC Cup so I would expect SFC to go far.
My preferred date would be the the Easter weekend (18-21 April) which would be the weekend after the midweek ACL2 Semifinal (15 or 16 April) and just before the ACL Elite QF in Saudi Arabia (25th or 26 April).
The date could be earlier but having it later gives the NST a few rounds to get up to speed. It may be gimicky but playing an extra match upsets the proper home and away season. It also gives exposure to the NST for when 9 teams from the ALM miss in the weeks coming up and may get a few ALM followers looking more locally for the winter months.

The Championship is going to struggle enough in the first few years as it is mate, dragging teams to an interstate destination to play a round that members cant travel too will NOT help... Leave the "razzle dazzle" to the entertainemnt league.

From what I've heard, the only reason Canberra aren't in, YET, is the APL knocked back $20 mill holding out for $25m.
