Confused about OFC Pro League, National League & FCWC paths....

Can someone explain what’s going on with the new OFC Pro League setup?

How does a team that can’t even make the NZ National League still get into the OFC Pro League?

What does that mean for the winner of the OFC Champions League now?

Where does Auckland City fit into all of this?


Also, on the Australian side:

Do South Melbourne now have two possible paths to the FIFA Club World Cup?

If they were to win the Australia Cup (next season), would that qualify them for the Asian Champions League – even though they’re not in the A-League?

Oh and South Melbourne would be part of AFC... as technically the Nix and AFC are too... 


This whole thing feels messy — what’s actually going on here?
