Will SAAFL consider changing the start date due to the Showdown clash??
Saturday 2nd April - 1.15pm
Crows v Power
Will this impact player availability?

Be more concerned if that's a week you draw Adelaide Uni or PAOC at home (at least in the lower grades). Parking will be a bitch

Apparently so, according to management but we can only hope...would certainly work better as far as trials etc go as Easter is the week before anticipated start date which means if you're looking at 3 trials you are looking at first week in March.

If div 1 & 2 clubs have lower grade teams and they are true club people they should be supporting them not enjoying the showdown.

good luck explaining to your teammates that you decided to go to the showdown instead of playing the opening round for your club

Either players want to play football or they don't

If they would rather watch a game than play themselves, they probably are not committed to your club.
