sincerely hope not - i'm told the same but it's a scary proposition

It's not a priority at all for the AFL. Expect the AFLW to morph into more curtain raisers / curtain closers to the AFL.

But the AFLW don't want to be seen as subservient to the men's game by playing curtain-raisers. They want to be a stand-alone competition.

The main demand is for a full season, and when that happens there will be significant overlap with the AFL season, and that will result in double headers due to broadcast requirements.

Wont be happening. Can you see West Coast or Fremantle reserves travelling all over the countryside. No chance.

I hope it does happen.  the AFL will then jettison the non AFL teams and that will force those clubs into different competition(s)

No disrespect to the WRFL, but i don't particularly want to see Willi going around in that competition but if there is nowhere else to go then that may be the unavoidable alternative

It would be a very expensive exercise transporting the AFL Seconds teams all around the country and accommodating them at times

How would you feel about the VFA and SANFL combining? 

That would be a genuine 17 team competition.
