What happens to that history with the merge/takeover?

Reynella huge winnings with juniors and lower grade seniors.
Is it true at 0/11 of the SD A-grade currently live south of Darlington?
If so, I'm not sure Reynella will necessarily pick any of them up.

Think the board of Southern Districts are facing an uphill battle. Since the weekend they have turned off the comments section on social media posts.Gosaints wrote:what I am hearing is that many at saca do not believe this merger is appropriate but they will take it but expect it to be defeated by SD voting members.
nobody believes that having no premier club based south of glenelg oval is desirable. a greenfield site at darlington is unlikely, and years away at best.
saca will then use the defeated vote as the catalyst for bringing in a 2 division competition, saying if a merger proposal where both boards agree cannot get up then it never will.
the 2 divisions are likely to have a relocated team and a new team.

Adelaide merge with Sturt.
West Torrens/woodville.
Uni/ prospect.
Saca need to good grow some nurries and make it happen.
I don't see a point in 2 divisions.
Talent still spread over 13 teams with this proposal?

They tried, it was over-ruled in court.

If the merger doesn't happen, where does that leave Adelaide CC?
Anyone here have an affiliation with Sturt? What would their attitude be to merging with Adelaide (apart from each club not liking each other very much??).

Still clubs out there who think they have some god-given right to stay as 1 identity. Call for applications and the best 8 stay in Division 1. The others become Division 2 clubs. Hopefully this happens in the next 4 weeks so people can begin planning where they want to play. Some of these clubs are struggling to function, no women's program, continued poor results in their juniors, no work in their zones, very little social function, no upgrades to their facilities, continued poor performances over the last 5 - 10 years, poor coaching profile and in most cases very shaky balance sheets.
