It would never happen, but relocating a team to the biggest market without an A League side, is not totally crazy, even if it is another country.
Gold Coast has hardly been a road paved with success for sporting teams. At least 2 failed NRL teams prior the Titans (who have also needed financial help also from ARL), the Suns an AFL team only kept alive because the game's powerbrokers in Melbourne have oodles of surplus cash slushing around (aka mega TV deal), and then Palmer's GC United fiasco.
But really I would hope the Nix, support leaving the Mariners on the Central Coast.
