How much do the Swans pay to gws to help keep them viable ?
Asking for a friend
The AFL are putting in around $30 million a year and for that the midgets are barely treading water.
The midgets have always have been a financial blackhole for Vicky Kicky house and always will be.

GWS's main problem is they aren't based in Western Sydney itself.

Blind Freddie would tell you they should buy up an existing cricket oval in Parramatta to turn into an AFL stadium.

That club will never be taken seriously until they do.

Knowing the AFL they would wanted it gifted to them.

they are almost completely funded by the betting companies and what they can get from Foxtel for their broadcast rights

Rupert has put Foxtel on the market and with the cracking down on gambling funding I'd say their future is not looking good as far as funding teams like GWS and their promotions of local park AFL and grass roots AFL, which is currently well funded and very well organized

And no Victorian teams in the GF.

The GF should be at the SCG or the Gabba.

Interesting and i suppose the people who administer the SCG would be interest if the price was right, but the MCG would want compo i would think if they was to lose the AFL grand final this year, as I think the AFL are contracted to play the AFL grand finals at the MCG, unless that there are reasons it can't be played there.
