Man if only the a league got 1/4 of the love the Matildas are getting.

Forget AFL and nrl we need to keep these fans that are showing up.

Right now we're like the nerdy kid with the new iPhone everyone wants to be our friend but we all know how that ends.

Hopefully apl can keep the momentum going this time

MV have just hit 1000 womens memberships, which is a new record. With SFC breaking their record lasts week, I wouldn't at all be surprised if they too were able to hit 1000 before the season starts. Although those numbers sound small (relatively speaking), it does demonstrate the missed opportunity of scheduling the league 2 months after the cup. Let's just hope they fix the scheduling issues and the women don't have to play at 3pm in the middle of summer.

Have they got the facilities though?

Potential players have already been put off with the lack thereof, imagine what a spike would do apart from the initial interest.
