Melbourne in pole position for IC11

Thanks Tinka. We do our best to advocate for the international game, as do many people including the the Leagues themselves - some of them, just like us, are in regular contact with the AFL. I suppose we have some advantages in that we talk to as many leagues as we can getting their views on issues, but don't represent any one country or interest group, so perhaps we're seen as having no (or less?) biases.

But of course at the end of the day the AFL staff have their own restrictions they have to work within and their own opinions and all those other competing interests - I'm sure there are guys there who, if given an extra $2million to splash around, would happily do great development things. It would certainly be interesting (perhaps frustrating) to be embedded in the system and see exactly what can and can't be achieved.
