Quoting myself here - but my comment was timely, following the news that was announced in the 'Tiser this morning - and that is that 7000 new homes are being built in a satellite town between Virginia and Port Gawler. So you may see new footy clubs developing in that area.
It depends how these new clubs see themselves and their identity - and I could imagine a new large suburb drawing people from the city won't identify itself as an Adelaide Plains type footy club. Will be interesting to watch.

700,000 homes might be a slight exaggeration - try 7000!!!

Heres a challenge 4 someone, find the biggest inter league road trip in SA footy. Im guessin maybe oodnadatta-Marree? Then compare it distance wise to Trinity(Gawler) to Kenilworth(St Marys).

Many years ago Barrossa Districts played in the Hills as well, Williamstown is even further than Kersbrook! Long way to go to get flogged by 50 goals! Even longer to get home:lol:

That would have been a hike! Lots of curvy roads too - slowing trip down even more.
dont think do

You guys might want to have a look at your web page, it has the good news of the new coach but you havent taken of the news about resigning last years coach.
Looks pretty poor.
When to much sport is never enough
