"national" = 2 states now
Yeah, but who gives a fuck about VIC / TAS / SA or WA

Also, no doubt it is a foot in the door, and hen expansion from there if successful

The only way I think that leagues like this work in Australia is to have a strong tie in with the US, like the Baseball league does, whether US teams own the local teams or the NFL owns the whole league and uses it for recruitment / to send development players.

Costs of running a semi pro league in Australia are just too high (ie: transport).

Sydney Express? were all the good names taken?

I notice the logo is a train? Now we are getting driverless trains what does that mean? No QB?
