I would argue the demographic moving into the area are not necessarily Aussie Rules playing families in Salisbury and Elizabeth. Paralowie, North Pines, Salisbury West now potentially Elizabeth, Central United hanging on, Mawson Lakes, Who knows how Long Brahma hold on for, Salisbury an inch or two away only 18 months ago…
Would watch the Plains Football Association over the next few years, murmurs a couple of clubs are not wanted in the comp with the change in their ‘towns’ becoming more populated by the minute, Virginia, Two Wells and Angle Vale may be looking for another association if a few outlying clubs get their way.
Wouldn’t be bad for SAAFL either pushing a few clubs down and strengthening the lower divisions again.
