For an undisclosed fee. Haha, that is interesting. Sorry, my brain didn't make that connection. Can't blame me for not thinking of memberships when "Sold out" and "package" is used in a sentence about MC. Probably why @Kitwally asked "who was that?"

I assuming he's referring to the Patrick Beach transfer to Ligue 1 club Troyes.

He still has another year on his contract. There is still a bit under a month left in the transfer window, so there is always possibility he gets picked up up overseas, but if nothing happens before Sep 15 he'll be in the squad.

Your not wrong there. I think the infrastructure thing would be the biggest hurdle. Reality is that the only nations that have existing suitable sized grounds are cricketing nations. None of those have any interest in AFL and no-one else is going to sink money into some weird Australian sport.

Per capita, I think it is the highest and has been for some time. I always wonder if that would change if another nation adopted the sport and their AFL league became the top tier for the sport. Let's say USA adopted the sport and it caught on. All of a sudden, the best AFL players are no longer...
