Bias of the a-league

I'm kind of torn on this one. I think that these two NZ clubs do add something to the A League but then you have clubs like South Melbourne and Marconi who most people would agree should have been in the competition since day 1 but have been completely ignored by the powers to be.....

If I was a fan of South Melbourne or maybe Marconi I'd be spewing at seeing NZ clubs in an Australian top.tier league while my club was ignored.
Most would have cared 10 years ago, now my only beef with Wellington (he he) is that they were sore losers in the Aus Cup and didn't stick around for a feed in our social club after we beat them... :P
 
I haven’t minded Kiwi teams at all, but it annoys me we have NZ teams instead of clubs from Tas, ACT, Wollongong, FNQ, Gold Coast and now Geelong after Western U’s demise.

I like the idea of Bendigo, Ballarat, Coff’s H, Darwin teams too. Many of these towns have no pro cricket, basketball, league, Aussie Rules, league or union teams to compete with either.

We don’t have many Aussies playing in the Kiwi teams either.
I’ve said it before that Western United were not based in Geelong. Tarneit is about 60-70km from Geelong.
 
Yeah I'm siding with msc with this. Wellington (any club even my own) assuming this is true looks like a bunch of bitches for leaving like that
I can't remember if Melbourne City players and staff stuck around after our Round of 32 match a few years ago.... it was 2021 though so probably a covid thing...
 
I never disrespected, i said it was what all old fashioned wog people did. Very sexist to say only his wife cooked, or are you guys still in the dark ages ?
Pfffffttttt Whose to say I was talking about a "binary" co-habitation? Way to assume toxic, gender-specific role models boomer.
