As mentioned in the SFL thread, both GSFL and SFL share their umpires so have implemented the SANFL ‘last touch’ out of bounds rule in all grades. Ridiculous to say the least. If it ain’t broke, why try and fix it up?? Sucking up to the SANFL clearly.

Agree.
Just ridiculous if introduced.
What makes GSFL so watchable compared to the over officiated ruined games of AFL and lesser extent SANFL is that rules such as deliberate out of bounds or what ever the F***K it is called these days and holding the ball when the player pinged is the only one going for it with 5 guys piled on top of him, is that GSFL umpires (with the exception of 1 or 2 AFL wannabes) are a lot more relaxed on these contentious rules and i think players and spectators appreciate it more.

I don’t think so. Some clubs wouldn’t be able to do it.

Wow went into the new clubrooms at Strathalbyn, really think they missed a big opportunity with that narrow long room upstairs, could've had a great balcony upstairs, the view is superb but a waste of space.

Quiet on here... I assume most clubs would have started preseason by now. Any notable new faces or omissions. Hearing Tarqs out of Victor.

Jeepers it’s quiet on here so I’m gonna try and spark some discussion. I reckon the Competition is gonna be very strong this year and this is why.

The sides that finished outside of finals last year look like they will improve this year:

Pongy Recruited well and another year under Ty Allen will be better for it. Depth is only question mark

Victor recruited extremely well at Alleways second year in charge will spark improvement. If the rumours are true then losin Tarquin will be massive

McLaren should improve, recruited well and new coach so we should see improvement there, how much? Hard to tell, depends on improvement within

Goolwa 2 new coaches and some recruits, Bs were great last year so
Depth is present as well

Langhorne performed above expected last year and have picked up a few. Do not under estimate the influence of a Ben Warren there

Strath seem to have been a bit quiet but are a super club, with great culture and depth so they will be up there as usual

Encounter Bay new coach and plenty of recruits. Top end as good as any but depth is question mark

Willunga were young last year so can only expect improvement, how long can some of the older blokes hold on though

Yankalilla are the only team I see not improving. I hope I’m wrong but lost a couple and lack of depth will hurt in such a strong comp

Compass look like definitely being the bench mark, back to back premiers and adding some experienced League footballers in Veide and Vitkunas only makes them stronger. The ones to beat. Was interested to hear that Compass coach was not happy that he only had 9 points and some of the bottom clubs have 15. What does he expect??

Pity apparently Jacquier could play

Any thoughts on here about the proposed merger of Yank and Myponga -Sellicks junior and senior colts teams for this season?

Statement on GSFL facebook page by both clubs outlining proposal.

While it's disappointing it's come to this for this season I think it will be a good thing for the boys morale and enjoyment of the game.
Success is in trying

To be fair, that team could coach itself! So well drilled. How many games have they lost in the last 5 years?? Reckon you could count them on one hand... well run club where all the colts are taught/expected to play the same way so they fit seamlessly into Seniors the next year.

PC great bloke good luck to him. Who was last years reserves coach?? As for the Myponga/Yank junior merger. Well done to both clubs for working through it but the Execs will wanna be careful that the GsFL doesn’t start heading down the road of the SFL.
