It may sound un-fair but it is what has been written up mate. So tell me Morell, if let's say a club that is successful on field and wins premierships and gets promoted to higher divisions then all of a sudden loses players (due to offers from other clubs, players asking for more $$$ and cant get it so leave). Then they get flogged week in and week out. Ask for the mercy rule and ask to get put in a much lower division. Then they get players back and start to dominate again. Is that a ideal way of running the SAAFL? The rule should be plain and simple. Top 2 go up. Bottom 2 go down. If you fold due to loss of players or financial ruin but then find ways to start again. Then the rule should be that you have to re-enter at the lowest Div.[/quote]

they should be penalised with the points system for returning players of 2015 that deserted pre Christmas in 2015, those that stayed loyal until they folded no penalty, those that jumped ship = 3 points each or simple, ship the whole club off to the southern league to replace one of the clubs that have now joined the saafl and let them prove themselves for a set banishment period before they qualify to re-join the saafl, will teach them a lesson in club management and also be a stern warning to all other clubs!

Obviously what you call a gun is different to me, handy player but far from a "gun"

In the best 6 times at D6 level in a finals side including 2 BoGs

He'll be a "gun" in D7.

He also played well against us, so maybe a slanted view.

I wouldn't have had him in the top 10 players at Ingle Farm last year - but people see things differently.

Played a couple of good games later in the season but that's about it.

He'll be handy in D7 - don't think he's gonna be a gun, or rip games apart though - he's not a match winner, he's just an accumulator of low impact possessions through the middle of the ground.. he's no Steve Wellington ;)

Changing my mind again haha! I'm torn!

These girls go in hard, they tackle well and their handballs in close are pretty good. They're fit as well.. that's where it ends.

Their kicking is definitely not elite like you suggested, they drop some very easy marks and are sloppy below the knees - most importantly it takes a number of kicks to progress the ball down the ground, where as an A grade side will transition quite quickly and efficiently.
