good luck getting them parents back.
Which club?
We didn't play 5 kids who have been playing u13's all year cause of this issue specifically.
This is another issue with the ridiculous 13/15/17.5 junior set up, should have never been agreed to in the first place, time to go back to 14/16/18.
THIS!!!
Made zero sense changing it in the first place...
Might not make sense at local level, but isn’t it to bring the age groups into line statewide?? Was that the reason for the change?? The old CFB getting to push their weight around??

Rubbish, one of the best things we ever did.
We have not been split up once on a Saturday this year, all clubs have a full set (except for one team in the 17.5s), less behavioral issue as the older kids are now playing senior football whilst also providing a larger pool of players in the oldest age group.
The mistake was not changing the Minis to be inline (ie U/11, U/9 & U/7)

It's just someone elses turn to be the easybeats now. Someone has to be at the bottom.

Except it's more than that. The standard of the league has dropped dramatically.
Flaggies would be the only team I would rate as being up with the best in the state. 10 years ago I would have said the top 6 would have mixed it at that level. Top players wouldn't even consider playing in the SFL anymore if they aren't already aligned with a club.
When the top side is beating the 4th side by 20 goals a week out from finals it raises questions. Sadly though it's probably too late to fix.

Think you'll find it was a dead rubber game as such, Saints couldn't move from 4th.

Porties were playing M / vale and had 5% better % than Christies, as I said Christies couldn't get any higher .
Look forward to a close finals series, should be 2 x competitive games Sat & Sunday. Shoe and the Winey's for me.

Christies % was 2.26 better than Porties after Rd 17...but let's not let the truth get in the way of a good story

Coming from a Marion supporter whose club took the easy option, moved to a competition/division which would be the 2nd or 3rd worst standard in the state, spent a bucket load of cash and still probably won't win the flag....... Laughable!
