As an outsider this situation with Mt Lofty is simply comical and must go down as one of the biggest dummy spits by a country football club. Any club worth there salt would take their medicine and work their ass off to come back bigger and stronger. One gets the feeling the club will be so exhausted ...

PFFFFTTTT.... Turn it up...

I think Mt Lofty would be aiming a bit higher than Div 6. I'd imagine the SAAFL would accept them at about Div 4 level . From an outsider looking in its actually not a bad move. Metro South is a very strong junior comp and the Amateur League at those mid range divisions don't pay out ridiculous ...

Have just been notified the only 2 options being voted on at tonights SGM are that 1. Lofty seniors in HFL and Juniors Metro Sth and option 2 are Lofty seniors Amateurs and Juniors Metro South. There is no other option given or proposed. Having read through the Chairpersons logic it claims that to ...

Really... I'm ranting... If I am I'm clearly not alone.
Still I haven't heard a solution from you and you seem to be the resident HFL genius.
Which position do you currently fullfill and will i expect to see you at the meeting?
You are definitely not alone in ranting on here. There's too many ...

Blackwood are "fully supportive of the HFL" but are putting a team in the Amateurs? If you are fully supportive of an organisation you take what comes along - the good and the bad. If they are looking to play every week, why not put a team in Country Division or would that be a bit tough for the ...

I see 3 of the Central clubs have been busy in the sponsorship side, naming their ovals with the sponsors name, i.e.
Ironbank now Mortgage Choice Adelaide Hills Oval
Torrens Valley now Hughes Construction Oval
Lobethal now Thomas Foods International Oval.

Fantastic idea! Anyone want to start ...

Are Birwood ever going to peak Grinch?

Well done, Legs Man, bloody great insight. I got bits & pieces from mates at Lofty re how it unfolded but didn't realise that it was such a shambles.
Your point re having Echunga, Nairne & Lofty in Central is a really valid one, I think. I don't know if there's a DEFINITIVE model that'll tick all ...

Legsman, I doubt you would still be sticking up for Lofty if you were at the AGM & saw how their delegates tried to sway others to vote against Echunga's appeal.

Correct, lots of family involvement at Lobethal, some might say inbred, I say family
