Re: Viable Dogs crucial to AFL: report
I have said for years the AFL is not doing enough to bring new Australians to our game the Somalian youth are begging to become part of our country.
I believe leadership in this area is neccesary not only for the Bulldogs and the AFL but also to help the Somalian kids intergrate more smoothly into our county soccer will always be there but if you want to attract 60,000 week after week aussie rules will always be THE game
It is incumbent on the AFL,state and federal government to get all kids off the street and into sport any sport really but Aussie rules with such a huge number of participants per side is the best vessel if it was afforrdable you would see more kids playing $150.00 registration is out of the question not only for new australians but also for low income earners this is where the government needs to help as much of this is insurance for our kids and keeping junior clubs afloat
bulldogs are forever not just when they are winning
