If Bill Foley is happy to write NZF a $14M cheque every 4 years, then I'd happily see us try jump ship into AFC. Might have to make that $28M if in the future FIFA give mens & womens international teams the same large payout for qualifying for WCs.
What other payments or deals Foley would have to make with AFC's powerbrokers, for them to accept NZ into their fold aka Australia - well that may make $28M seem like pocket change.
In short it ain't gonna happen, and Bill will be looking for better football investments for his millions, than enabling the Black Knights to host some Phillipines club midweek.
