Question: if the A-L is now owner operated, why are NZ teams still subject to fairly stringent rules re coaching qualifications? Do coaches of the Aussie teams need to have the same qualifications?
And will anything change re the status of Kiwi players? Will they still be considered imports across the ditch?
I can see the day coming when the league may need to rationalise some of this stuff.

Are good questions esp around the coaching badges. Still seems like Kiwis need higher quals than Aussies?? If so surely Rob on the APL board is asking why.
