Sydney supported far and wide

We have heard of all the hype about the Swans and as in (Queensland and Brisbanes successes,) it will no doubt be good for footy in NSW, if Sydney wins.
However if the Eagles win, it will be their third title since they came into the AFL and they have only been out of the finals a couple of times since 1989 (the start of AFL).
Not a bad effort for a team who covers many more miles to play, week after week, than most and is not considered seriously because they have a better home record, than away. If we look at most teams away records, it shows that most, especially the Vic based sides, really struggle away from home.
These two sides are very young and should stay at the top for many more years to come.
It will be a clean sweep for the Eagles, if they win and also get the Norm Smith Medal ?
This will be the "ninth team out of Victoria" to win the Flag since 1992 (13 years) and is a clear sign that there are too many teams based in that state.
When and where will the next relocation take place ?
NSW, Queensland, Tasmania, New Zealand or the successful states of SA and WA ?
Only time will tell !
