100% agree clubs that think having low numbers in Pre Season isn't a problem then they may need to rethink what direction the club is heading in, went around to see some clubs pre season trainings over the past 4 weeks haven't seen anything past 12 players on the Track for the units I'd put money they won't fiald 2 sides in 2020 it's a shame for a club with such rich history but thats just my view (Houghton had 40+) (Bramha 40+ with heaps of speed and youth suprised) div7 looking strongThe Bedge wrote:Q. wrote:PortPower2018 wrote:12 on the track before the first break in Pre Season means your clubs in big trouble
It's December and this is D7.
Numbers don't mean anything right now.
This attitude is beginning to shit me of late.. I see/hear all these clubs who talk about success and wanting to progress through the divisions and blah blah blah but then the fall back line is "it's only D7 or D6" etc.. if you want to be successful then you've got to pay the price and put the effort in - regardless of the division.
The other part to that is frankly I think it's a insulting to those who are genuinely having a crack to hear people say "oh well you're only playing D7", or those who sign up at clubs and instantly think they'll dominate because it's D7 and aren't shy to tell people.
Those who take the attitude of "it's only Div 7" will constantly flounder in those divisions.
Bottom line, 12 on the track regardless of the time of year is pathetic.

Trashing a club for having low numbers before Xmas and using that to suggest they will fold is poor form. It's deliberately spreading bad news where there is none in the hope of peeling players away from that club.

Re: Adelaide Footy League Division 7 -2020
Not trashing at all just going by the amount of players they have lost to other clubs already and former players that played there last year have said they will struggle with numbers, everybody has an opinion on different clubs this time of the year let the results speak for themselves in 2020Q. wrote:PortPower2018 wrote: 100% agree clubs that think having low numbers in Pre Season isn't a problem then they may need to rethink what direction the club is heading in, went around to see some clubs pre season trainings over the past 4 weeks haven't seen anything past 12 players on the Track for the units I'd put money they won't fiald 2 sides in 2020 it's a shame for a club with such rich history but thats just my view (Houghton had 40+) (Bramha 40+ with heaps of speed and youth suprised) div7 looking strong

Absolutely love this.
You could make an extremely good case that starting pre season in November end up being more hazardous then beneficial, especially if not done correctly or done by someone based on bro science.
