Lastly, I still think this feels like a preseason tournament  and it should be during the A League season. I don't  think it will be taken seriously by many A League clubs until then.

The NPL clubs would all be off season then and because they're semi-pro or amateur it's not like their squads will necessarily still be around and training together in summer. It would also give the A League clubs even more of an advantage over them as the NPL teams wouldn't be match fit but the A League guys would be, and the FFA want to make sure there's some chance of fairytales in it or else it would just be A League Lite
