Devils in Despair | Tassie Breakfast
Listen Live 7am – 9am June 5 on SEN Tassie 1629am
Tasmania Devils CEO Brendon Gale remains very optimistic for his clubs despite the political upheaval taking place in the state.
A no-confidence motion filed against Tasmanian Premier Jeremy Rockliff is threatening Tasmania’s AFL dream due to his backing of the controversial Macquarie Point stadium build.
Opposition leader Dean Winter has taken a stand against Rockliff due to financial mismanagement, leaving the Devils at “serious risk for jobs, investment and growth”.
SEN Tassie Breakfast is running a special focusing on the future of the club hosted by Brent Costelloe and David Lithgow.
Follow along below for the latest on the Devils.

Brent Costelloe fears for what is to come.
"I've been so positive and I hope we do find a way but At the moment with what's happening on the floor in parliament, I can't see the roadmap out (the Devils happening).
"At the moment it doesn't add up.
"Labour comes out with that statement yesterday but mate you're killing our team, you're killing our team as we speak."
Lithgow remains a little more optimistic:
Dillon is going to come out an say it's over? Is he going to do that? Is he going to burn 227k members. We know we need a stadium but I cant be convinced he's going to do that.
"Has the labour party done a commitment? What's your end game here Dean?"
