In all honesty... I was going to post this thread.. then I thought and I have no real idea...
I reckon it will surge for sure, particularly if we can get into the second round and even if we miss out only just.. but we will get into the second round..
However afterwards, it will all depend on the FFA working their butts off to do the job... I mean no one really remembered SOO was on tonight and that shows the power the world game can have on its biggest stage. We have Asian Cup qualifers soon and if the FFA promote that well then who knows...
I can assure you though that Football will never go back to the way it was.. it has had too much happen and with a strong national competition and regular games, it will only grow stronger. I think it will be equal to League and Union come Asian Cup time, its throughout and afterwards that will determine its true future as a dominant partner in the sporting relationship in Australia... there are a lot of converts after Monday... the FFA has to keep them..
