Tasmania would be a great addition to the A-League !

Its an untaped resource, for some strange reason the AFL has failed to captitalize on it. Tasmania would be a smaller bid, but being a Mariners supporter and witnessing first hand how a smaller team can succeed I am fully for the bid.

I feel that Tasmania should come into the league during the second round of expansion.

A second Melbourne team is not needed agreed, rather a team from Geelong should be admitted with the Gold Coast next season. Townsville, Wollengong, Canberra and a Western Sydney team can fight it out for the last position.

The A-League should be ultimately looking to expand to a 14 team competition. Any more would take away from the standard for the time being..
