Summary
We sit down with Matt Windley for a huge conversation about ambition, politics and the future of the game in Australia. You will hear things you’ve never heard before in this one! Matt lays out his bold plan to take Berwick City Soccer Club all the way to the A-League — and what it would realistically take to get there. We dive into: 🔥 The blueprint for elevating Berwick City to the top flight 🚧 The financial, licensing and structural hurdles standing in the way 📈 Facilities, investors and what needs to happen behind the scenes 🔄 A1 & A2 — is splitting the top tier the ONLY way pro/rel could work in Australia? We also unpack the story of South East Melbourne Group — better known as Team 11 — the A-League expansion bid that never happened. 🏟️ Why Dandenong would’ve been the perfect suburb for a new club 📊 The fan base, facilities and growth corridor that made it so strong 🏉 Claims that the AFL did everything they could to shut it down — and how cross-code politics shape expansion battles in this country And so so much more!
