So in just assuming Noarlunga wont field a senior side by round 1, would that mean christies would cop a forfeit round 1 giving noarlunga "more time to recruit off facebook" or would it be a newly instated bye round replacing each teams would be game against the shoes?

BZT & SPP on their socials, appealing for players whilst doing a footy clinic

You would hope they've been given a deadline, and if they fail to meet that, it's a bye & nine team comp.

However, this is the SFL and strategic decisions ain't their strong suit...

When the Shoes pulled their U17 teams in 2022 & 2023, it was done after the season started

Hearing that the Shoes are only nominating a B grade, and juniors. I guess rules change but I always thought you had to fill an A grade as your first senior side....

[Dutchy]

The can nominate, but should get refused by the board (we know it won't)

[wenchbarwer]

What juniors? They haven't fielded their own u17 team for 4 years (last year was majority Cove kids who weren't picked), and by all accounts barely have an U15s this year.

They should make them play C grade

What an absolute joke that is. The fact of the matter if they are just scraping a B grade side together they will finish bottom. May as well play them in the A grade and have the other grades start a little later to cover the B grade match. And still finish bottom in the A grade. At the end of the day. Poor planning of the future of the club a decade ago has caused this. Now eat that humble pie and field the A grade side.

Im sure M/Vale, Aldinga, Hackham, OSB in recent times would have loved the option of just fielding a B grade.

The Emus had C grade players playing in their A grade last year, simply got on with it and looked to improve.

They made a GF and fell short and now need to rebuild. Thats football. Shoes players would probably rather get flogged as A graders more than getting belted by slightly less as a B grader.

Their plight goes far beyond a senior team rebuild, this is complete lack of whole club planning, solely focusing on buying A grade flags, which they hilariously failed at.

What are the rules on the opposing club dropping A grade to play B grade? do they have a certain number of players that can be dropped or is it a free-for-all... Might be a few clubs willing to inflict some serious pain on the Shoes, not saying they don't deserve it, considering the number of players they have poached from other clubs in the SFL.

They'll be miles off the top B grade teams anyway, even with the handful of A grade players left there. Wonder how many will even bother playing if B grade is all they're going to offer?

Besides, bugger playing against that mob as an opposition A grader and get belted for your troubles. They're going to struggle to even exist beyond this year

Shoes players only cared about cash dont give a shit about the club
Sad but true
