With respect to ACFC, why would they want to play the runners up when they can play the back to back champs in their own back yard?
I know you guys are a little bit full of yourselves but even you can see the outweighing factors in that one.
Yeah I suppose just 1 semi-competitive pre-season match will be sufficient.
The reality is all their games are going to be that way because they are NZ based and the top team in the land so playing ACFC or Old Farts O35 wont make much of a different in being a semi-competitive preseason game. Instead, they are choosing to play the champs and not forking out a fortune to do so.
