Should the SAAFL change its name?

Postby Benchwarmer » Sat May 12, 2007 1:11 pm

Is it time to revisit the name of the amateur league ... the word amateur seems to be redundant what with clubs paying players.

Should we rename the league the SA Metropolitan FL (SAMFL or MFL) or is there a more suitable title? The Adelaide FL (AFL) would be too confusing as would the title SAFA.

Opinions?

I think SAAFL is still alright, nobody gets paid enough to live on or to be a 'professional', so I don't see a problem with the amateur being in there.

What, you want to call it SAPFL????

So what, Div 1 clubs pay players- big deal.

What about the C1-C6 clubs?
How much do you reckon these blokes are on per game?
$0 (or even -$ after subs are paid etc)
