B-League Predictions
Alex Poulos writing an article on the Roar web site, stated that what was missing in the A-League is rivalry as all the teams in the competition are new teams.
His argument is by having all new teams does not allow for passion, history and rivalry. He also states that now is the time, riding off the back of how popular the sport is at the moment to push old football forward by the creation of a B-League.
Poulos’s version of the B-League includes a new Tasmanian franchise playing out of Devonport Oval.
Other teams in his B-League would be a mixture new franchise teams mixed with older traditional teams, as seen below:
- Perth SC. Joondalup Arena
- South Melbourne FC. Playing out of Bob Jane Stadium
- Darwin FC (new franchise). Playing out of Marrara Stadium
- Sydney Olympic FC. Playing out of Belmore Sports Ground
- Brisbane City. Playing from Spensor Park
- South Coast Wolves. Playing from WIN Stadium
- Sydney United FC. Playing from Edensor Park
