I was a big proponent of this league when the idea first came to light - despite its many pitfalls and giant leaps into the unknown...
But how this is all playing out, I'm secretly hoping after all of this that the NZ entries come from the four applicants who aren't in the professional space already...
After all, that's what I thought the premise of this league was going to be - Promotion of the pro game outside already established avenues.
On a personal level I think Christchurch should have a presence given its our 2nd biggest city, with a lot of untapped potential, and then perhaps this other Auckland lot that Vuksich is advising.
Also, am I right in thinking if they choose one of the Nix & AFC, then they'd also have to choose the other?
