I think the most logical scenario for FFA would be to satisfy Foxtel (since they pay the bills) however i would be telling Canberra they will be getting a licence to replace wellington. As much as Wellington has been generally a well run club and hardly ever had financial issues ect, they have not offered anything to the league for a number of years. They get less then 5k memberships, consistently one of the lowest crowds and tv rating games each week. Bringing in Canberra to replace them gives more Aussies a shot and hopefully will improve the league average crowds, ratings and memberships which all lead to more interest in the game and therefore more $$$$ at the next rights negotiations
A League expansion is finally here
I think it would be more than marginally. If you look at nix members (5200 nowand have stayed there for years) surely Canberra would be getting 8-10k members over their first few seasons. As for ratings it may be marginal but improvements are improvements. But as for crowds there is now doubt they would get a much larger average attendance then the nix.
