WT shattered by this. As a Club you do all the right things, meet all the criteria like teams in all competitions (Mens/Womens), good Juniors, etc and only reason getting punished is location of Club!
From a West Torrens point of view you are the strongest out of those 3. Decent junior program and decent numbers in the seniors. The other 2 juniors struggle for numbers and have issues with numbers from time to time in the lower senior mens competition.
Typical SACA thinking selecting 3 clubs to thrash out a merger, yet the club that contributes the least to junior development gets off....
How true. common sense says it should be Uni gone, and their players get shared around. They have no juniors so makes perfect sense.
Unfortunately they have many powerful people at that club (lots of Lawyers and Barristers) and SACA wont take them on!
WT are being penalized for our location, we are turning players away to Community clubs in our area, for both Seniors and Juniors.
Yes it certainly helps when you have the director of public prosecution drafting your clubs correspondence.
If WT were forced to merge that would be a complete crock IMO. They meet all the requisite markers that SACA uses to guide the success of a grade club and put on a great spread for afternoon tea. On the other hand, and i say this firmly with tongue in cheek... it would be nice to see the back of them [emoji38]
Still could have went down the Cricket Australia path for the logic of scheduling u/19 matches.....apparently Pertaringa is too far
