Townsville is still an option. Averaged 6k in the first season (higher than 3 current teams in that season), which is higher than this season’s average across the competition. COVID barely affected NQ (no lockdowns etc.), which would probably have that 6k figure improve. The problem was the use of the “Fury”. Fury had nothing to do with Townsville, and something like North Queensland Spirit would work much better.

Where should the A-Leagues expand to next?
