SAAFL Div 7 & 7R (2009)

[Phantom Gossiper]

Is Ovingham in div 7 this season? I thought they were moving out of the C divisions?

[carey18]

Not sure mate. There was a lot of talk from Bubbla last season saying how great the club was and how they are moving forward. Maybe all the talk about the gypsys were right

[finn]

itll be different this year with modbury going to div 1 and shocs and with broadies and ramblers leaving div 1 theres too many holes in c1 c2 and div 7. also ovies (supposedly) having two sides and pines with 2 and eddies uckfa offing ...henley will have no choice but to go to c1 and c5...theyll prob still play finals anyway but just in a fairer comp(c1) but be patient , im sure we will all be out of our misery sooner or later

if henley won div 7 last year they'd stroll through c1 - would probably be fairer to stay in div 7 if they didn't want to go to div 6. whisper is that the mooted div 8 will not happen; henley and adelaide uni will stay in div 7, while shoc, athelstone and smosh will filter down to c1/c5 or c4, c2/c5 or c4 if ovingham and north pines get their two sides.

[The Riddler]

Both Ovingham and North Pines have been quite quiet on here for a while which makes me think them getting 2 teams up may not be 100% anymore!

[Bigshow82]

No issues at Nth Pines we will have 2 teams for sure. Only been back training one week so have not had much to report.

Hey finn ease up you will upset the locals down at Paralowie if you say Henley won div 7 last year.

ttg A gr are div 1 their C gr are c1 d grade are c5,,..modburys A grade are div1 , c grade are c1 , d grade are c5... henleys A gr are div 1 ,their their c gr SHOULD BE c1 , d gr SHOULD BE c5 (not sure on unis grading policy but if the A grade is div2 , the c grade are c2 then div7 7res. i do realise they were in c1 this year.and have won back to back they are an exception as they have sooo many teams.)...i really cannot see how it would be fairer in div 7 finn for henley to stay in div7.for henley are excactly the same as the other mentioned clubs and all in the same grading set up..that would be as fair as it gets as they are all div1 clubs...playing ag C grade teams of the same grading div 1....are you worried henley may knock your c1 uni side off going for 3 in a row.......just worked it out dont worry too much , finn your c1 sides been together for a while, im sure youll knock em over

uni's grading goes div 2, 2 res, 7, c1/7res, c2 stands alone as roseworthy, then c4, c5
my apologies to paralowie re the 2008 d7 flag - i assumed (naively as it turned out) that henley had won and that was the major problem regarding their promotion etc to div 6.
theoretically, the reflection of the c grade with the a grade is a super idea because of the reverse home and away nature of the fixture, the ability to have triple/quadruple headers - that of course puts uni's c1 team into c2 which would probably be silly given our recent results in c1 (its 3 in a row already gtb ).
I'd just like to see a format stuck to by the saafl and given a chance to work - whether its the reflective format or a collection of teams below the final a grade division relying on the same promotion/relegation system that the upper grades have.
we've lost a few players from the preceding years in c1; age has finally wearied them

[gothebombers]

i dont think there will ever be a clear cut solution with the lower grades but i think this is going to be the best it can be...uni v henley gf in c1 this year finn for the 4 in a row

[Q.]

I'm assuming most clubs have now returned to Pre Season training, How's everybody looking in 2009? Bigshow, Quichey?

Good numbers, a few more out this week. A few new faces too, half of them of signed up, hopefully the rest will soon.

that's good of you - remember to back it on footypunt

[04 Premiership Coach]

If anyone from Ovingham owns a computer,and actually knows how to use it,could you let us all know how the numbers are looking down there.A lot was said after last years premiership about how strong the club was going to be,but strangely,things have been awfully quiet of late.Might be a tough year without Klompy,Dave Brotherton and Rhino!

[plugger12]

Any news about Mitchell Park??? Hopefully then can continue there good form and go 1 step further...

[hawkseye]

Not sure mate. There was a lot of talk from Bubbla last season saying how great the club was and how they are moving forward. Maybe all the talk about the gypsys were right

Where is old bubbla

[Tigers93-94]

Any news about Mitchell Park??? Hopefully then can continue there good form and go 1 step further...

News I heard that they will be in Div 6 - they are listed there in the SAAFL web page under 2009 season - not sure how that one has come about

Yeah i heard Mitch PK in Div 6 and Brahma in Div 7

[Q.]

I believe BOTH will be in Div 6 this year. Henley and us to play Div 7.

Sounds about right Quichey. When is everything supposed to be confirmed?

[Q.]

SAAFL says nominations close Feb 20th and program released March 9th.

[The Riddler]

Quichey is correct Mitchell Park definately in Div 6 next year!
