So concerned with my earlier post that I said it 3 times!!! Sorry people WiFi playing up.
Lots of scoring at one end because of strong wind and players swearing. Thanks for your input MW. What planet did you just arrive from?
Piss off idiot. Don't expect decent families to attend your rank competition with the redneck behavior of your players

Over 3000 posts to SA Footy and that is your response to a bit of humour in reply to - let's face it - a rather strange commentary about your observations. Seems as though you were looking for a response so you could then unload with a negative comment about the SFL. If you could walk your dog to Marion then you could also walk your dog to Kenilworth and Mitchell Park so give us a report about swearing and rednecks from those venues and be sure to check that the scoring end is the one that the wind is blowing!!!
And you are just jealous LGIL that he referred to our game as a bunch of rednecks because we know where every redneck in Adelaide was yesterday. And listening to the Tribe Crew did nothing to diminish that thought.

And provided any other player hasn't qualified for A grade only, then he can be picked in C grade if not selected for B grade due to open selection rule.

Our team has one lad on a permit who is 10 days overage and looks about 12 and I can't recall him getting any more than a handful of touches yesterday. This is what the rule is intended!!!

Now this will not happen but it does show that a review of the rules is due. As a side issue and before you all refer to the by-law and howl me down, please let me explain. The term in the By-law which states, "no player shall play in a lower grade" means on the same w/e. That is, a player could not play both B and C on the same w/e. The term "more than one level below" means an A grader could not play C's. Again, before the howls come out, Flaggies hold an email from the SFL confirming that interpretation.

The plot thickens!!
Reynella B grade were eliminated last w/e, but Reynella still have two senior sides playing SFL finals this w/e. The A's and C's. Therefore accordingly to the By-Law rule above their entire B grade team could play in the C grade GF. Conceivably we could have Reynella B grade vs Flaggies B grade in the C grade GF on Saturday night. Now this is clearly ridiculous but unless some clear guidelines are issued by the SFL the C grade GF could degenerate into a farce!

I don't think anything needs to be done. The reserves grades are there to provide depth for the A-Grade and it is up to the club how they manage that.
Having said that, any club that does as you suggest is going to upset a lot of people. Any rule would be more to protect the clubs from themselves rather than any other reason. If a club wants to tear themselves apart trying to win a magoos flag then that is their problem. The main value is for the players involved, no one outside of the club gives a stuff by next year who won the 2016 C-Grade premiership.
