Talk:Australian rules football in Australia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] "Tiers"
At present the article says:
Top Tier - AFL
- Second Tier - SANFL, VFL, WAFL
- Third Tier - Queensland State League, Sydney AFL, AFL Canberra, Northern Territory Football League, Ovens & Murray League
- Fourth Tier - Northern Tasmanian Football League, Southern Tasmanian Football League, Southern Football League (Victoria)
- Third Tier - Queensland State League, Sydney AFL, AFL Canberra, Northern Territory Football League, Ovens & Murray League
Is there any official basis for this? Any references to support the esistence of this structure? In particular I find it hard to believe that the Ovens & Murray League is stronger than either of the Tasmanian leagues. Grant65 | Talk 03:31, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- I think your right Grant65, the perceived "tiers" is completely POV. Still, it would be nice for the article to give some sort of context to the relative strength of the regional leagues. And it needs to consider other factors as well. ie. Some are strong but draw negligible crowds (like the VFL), others are weak but are well supported. --Spewmaster 23:16, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
