For me, coming through the bad times, makes the good times so much sweeter.

Going back in the future past the cheap as chips era, to the merger times it's amazing to think just how close we could have been to not enjoying the good patch we're in. Which led me to thinking abot what i would've done if the club has ceased to exist or merge. Whether i could support a club which was not mine 100% or whether i'd change or whether i'd follow footy.

All hypothetical now, but personally i think i would have given footy up all together. And what it should show morons like Ross Oakley and current admnistrators is there is a great deal of loyalty for our clubs and that things go in cycles - I have no doubt if the Roys were given more time, things could've turned. And most importantly the AFL (VFL) should not abandon any teams in Victoria.

So would you have walked, supported a mutant club or change clubs?

There was no way I was going to support the merged entity.



All my football passion was on it's way to the VFA and the WRFL.

It was a near death experience for me. There is no way I could have transferred to another club. Everytime I watched them run out I would have been reminded of what I had lost.

I think I would have taken up a more serious interest in Basketball.

I honestly have no idea, it wasn't as issue I was prepared to face. Dunno how I would have gone. Thank goodness this question was a hypothetical.

I definitely would not have followed another club had we merged. I would have just bought an AFL membership and just gone to neutral games randomly. Thankfully, that didn't happen and now we are going from strength to strength again.
