Team GWS

The new western Sydney team has finally been launched. Now if only the 'nay sayers' would shut up because this will happen. The AFL will make sure it does.

It was launched last Saturday under the working title of Team GWS. They unveiled a logo for the next phase of development as well as a basic yet impressive website. A working committee is in place to get this venture off with the best possible foundations.

Despite being a Swans fan, I am excited about this venture being a resident living 15 minutes away from the new stadium at Doonside.

They will eventually be asking for members to sign up and put some money forward. Even if you support another club I recommend everyone everyone does this to give the club the best possible chance of success in the early stages. Get down to games and bring friends unfamiliar to AFL. I have done this and many have become fans.

At the very least sign up for the email updates to monitor where the club is at. Very soon they will ask for ideas for colours, mascot, name, even song.

Get involved!
