I mean, we've heard it all before, right? Nothing new to see here. 

Also, just a friendly reminder that the only reason we keep being compared to Auckland is that we're both from the same country. Aside from that, the clubs really couldn't be any more different.

Yeah I suppose Morrison's shareholding in Infratil at half a billion is small change compared to Foley's pile. Plus the Todd Energy guy... and the other millionaires that make up Welnix. Couldn't be any more more different.

Yep. It looks like Foley's personal worth is around 7x Morrison.

And Black Knights Sport and Entertainment, which is his corporate vehicle for all his sports ownership, made nearly US$500m profit in the last year I found numbers for.  So that business makes more profit each year than Morrison is worth.

So, yeah, couldn't be more different.


I am happy for A-FC to succeed, and I can forgive them for winning the trophy / trophies.  But I will not forgive them winning at AAMI Stadium in Melbourne.
