That's quite an early leak it being only Juily & the clubs not due to be announced until September.

Disappointing for Mainland football fans. I hope this means NZF are doing some work behind the scenes to try get them an A League club. Pragnell wants one.

If those hubs are correct, then Sth Melbourne must be the Aussie club accepted.
Sounds like only them and Sunshine Coast were in the race.

Going to be interesting how this all plays out for Auckland and the Nix. Surely they can't just be their current young reserve teams that play National League. They won't be competitive enough, against the Island teams that could effectively be de facto National teams. Gonna need to sign some older more veteran players from somewhere. A few from ACFC for example with lots of experience playing in toasty Honiara, Suva and Port Moresby??
