How about the opposition lend them some top up players, they can turn their guernsey inside out?
PS: I was joking.

We did that for Pooraka or Para Hills a long time back, lent them a young B grader. We jokingly called him Judas that night for playing for the opposition and that name has stuck every since.

We did that in a C Grade game a few years back. Had 3-4 of our blokes play a quarter for Para Hills. From memory they only had 14 and that included a few Under 16s helping out. We had the full compliment of 25. Seemed in everyone's interest.

In U9's at Gepps Cross, i played a quarter for Gaza one day because they were short and kicked their only 2 goals of the game.. played the other 3 qtrs for Gepps and thought i was pretty good.. was fair devo i wasn't in the best for either side after the game

It could work. You could have a minimum of 16, but a maximum of 21 still. So that clubs with the numbers can still pick a "full" side but on the field its only 16 v 16.
This could mean those clubs that have only been able to field one side might've been able to field two. Like us in 2014.
Ultimately, it would mean more control over the integrity of the competition and avoid Salisbury West/North Pines and Mitchell Park/Flinders Uni type situations.
