Difficult because TTG were good, or because the time?

Friday night games are shit full stop, save it for the younger grades and have the older grades play earlier on a Sunday.
6:30 start: Gotta be there for 5:30, get home, get organised, get going and don't get home until around 9 then have dinner.
7:30 start: The kids can't have dinner beforehand, you can't have a quiet Friday beer or two until you get home around 10ish, then you don't feel like it as you've probably got takeaway on the way home too.
At least the younger groups have shorter games and they can remain local top avoid traveling distances during peak hour near the city.
Payneham quite often has night games, that's a prick of place to get to after 5 pm on a Friday evening.

Agreed. Also with the younger kids being 9-a-side now along with a booming girls league it means more teams and constraints on oval availability.
At least with the younger grades you can knock off 2-3 games at once in under an hour

Our parents fully supported the move to SANFL despite the travel (our 16.5's have only have Brighton south of the city) as it gives a good competition every week which develops the kids much more than winning or losing big.
Really looking forward to seeing how it all goes.

68 minutes from my house according to Google maps, lets say a 1:20pm match.
11am: Leave home.
12:20pm: Arrive at ground.
1:20pm: Match starts.
3:30pm: Start the journey home.
4:45pm: Return home.
6 hour round trip for a game of footy, that's a fair trip.

Game started 1.15
Left home at 10.30 to watch the 16's
got home about 4.00
5 1/2 hour day for a game 15 mins away - sounds ideal to me

I already see we play my old team Lockleys and Eastern Park in the 16.5's who are also red and blue, I presume there is a clash policy of some sort? (or we could grab our A grade clash jumpers on those games)

Under 14 Div. 2
Colonel Light Gardens
Elizabeth
Flinders Park
Hectorville
Henley
Mitcham
Modbury
Mt. Lofty
Pooraka
Tea Tree Gully
That's ridiculous for Under 14 footy.
I preferred to travel than watch my lad's team win by 20 goals one week and lose by 20 goals the next week
