What money is the phoenix soaking up that would magically revitalise the ASBP?

Are you offering to fund an entire NZ national league Frank Lowy style? 

You don't think the ASBP already acts as a stepping stone for players to move on to a professional team, and that the phoenix are a great bridge between ASBP and a potential pro career overseas? Or even just a further option for kiwis to become professional?

I think we have the best of both worlds with the current set up. 

Yes, it would also be nice if the ASBP was better funded outside of ACFC (which is only funded by dodgy pokie money, like everyone else)

Also, how would welnix funding TW magically mean sponsors will come forward for other franchises?

You also say if welnix spent half of $2million on the national league instead of the phoenix it'd be all fixed. $1mill / 8 franchises = $125000 per franchise. Say you want to use that to pay players, $125000 / 20 = $6250 per player. Hardly enough money to turn it into anything significantly better than it currently is, and certainly not enough to justify giving up the phoenix. 

I'd prefer the best of both worlds scenario we have currently.
