Wild that teams in the top tier of Tasmanian soccer in 2026 will play just 18 league games, plus what cup and #AusChampionship the lucky ones will add to that tally. Victoria's Heidelberg played something close to 50 this year, which is an extreme counter example, but still.

Australia’s anti-pledge:

“I swear that the Australian Head of State should pledge loyalty to us, not the other way around and that we don’t kneel to anyone. And be Australian, naturally.”

113 years ago South Hobart Football Club was born. 🥳
1 month later the first official match was played at D'Arcy Street. ⚽
Our history is rich and strong. We proudly celebrate 113 years today with our club family and friends. 💙❤️

It's an historic day for Australian football with the National Second Division taking shape 🙌

23 clubs from six states and territories have submitted EOIs with Football Australia to join the new national second tier.

FIFA cannot accept money for the Women’s World Cup from a State that would consider the athletes legal minors without full agency and imprison many on the basis of their sexuality.

Sport sponsorship must be value-aligned.

Thousands of kms, dozens of meetings, years of waiting and finally we have an EOI. @nick_galatas @AAFClubs @ChampionshipAU I say well done us!! #NSD @FootballAUS #pathways

[Skippy Will @inferno_Will]

So when do we finally get the announcement of the NSD and who’s filling it? Now is the best time to release names and dates while all of Australia is on its football high. Also I need a second division team to adopt (hoping for @SouthHobartFC)

[Brian Wightman @BrianWightman76]

It’s time. Tasmanians deserve Headquarters for Association Football in our state. The numbers don’t lie. @jeremyrockliff @RockliffTeam @bec_white @CassyOConnorMP

[South Hobart FC @SouthHobartFC]

Well said @BrianWightman76 - so proud. Absolutely amazing for the thousands of Tasmanian players who love this game. @jeremyrockliff - rectangular stadium of our own 🙏🏻 @RockliffTeam

[South Hobart FC @SouthHobartFC]

Thanks @jacksonirvine_ loved your emotional interview. Raw emotion. Thanks for all you have done for @FootballAUS - you have made us proud ❤️

[Nick McKim @NickMcKim]

The AFL's arrogant demand for Tasmania to build a brand new, $750 million stadium should be treated for what it is - blackmail. It is an insult to the thousands of people who are waiting for healthcare and housing.

[South Hobart FC @SouthHobartFC]

Yes ⚽️ soccer wouldn’t mind $12 million a year for 12 years! We would even take half that for Tasmania’s most played team sport!! Check the demographics!

@HaulPunt FIFA uncovered Netflix 😳

[Lucy Zelić @LucyZelic]

So, whilst I’ll still watch my beloved teams and admire the football, I’ll also be thinking of the families who lost loved ones and ask why it had to come to this. @FIFAcom we want it to be about the football but YOU choose to make it about everything else. #FIFAWorldCup

Despite the quotes from Gillon overnight, on no metric is afl in the top 10 sports in the world. Not participation, fans, broadcast reach or revenue.
Even chess, wrestling, table tennis, bowling and polo are bigger.

[South Hobart FC @SouthHobartFC]

Great coaches develop great players! Delighted to be involved.
