This year was weird but traditionally its been 50% C Grade in D7, compared to D6 which is 0% or Adelaide Uni sometimes.
That difference makes the leap immense. You're no longer playing sides every second week which don't train, don't get paid and don't really give a hoot and run into clubs desperate to improve - which includes massive budgets.

This is the worst standard I've ever seen D7. It's been diabolical.marbles wrote:morell wrote:I thought it was pretty much a proven fact that D7 to D6 was a huge leap?

thats a great point the standard of div 7 has possibly lifted due to the semi professionalism in "all" teams

Payments are only one aspect though, as you correctly point out. The training, commitment and motivation with D6 A Grade sides is orders of magnitude higher than your average D7 side. Makes a monumental difference.
