They played 33 players in their A's last year in Div 4 and 19 have been either cleared or are pending. That leaves 14 who played Div 4 last year. Add some of their good juniors list and they could carve Div 7 a new one this year.
I think you will find a lot of the 14 players still to be cleared.
Yeah understand what might be happening out there DJ we went through it last year. They still have 7 players who played in the Div 4 Grand Final in limbo and if they keep them they would still be good material in Div 7. From us southerners and oblivious to what goes on in your boys neck of the woods, what's happening with the McIntyre family at Westies.
I was told Blondie Mcintyre (old man) is the coach, I thought maybe his 3 boy's might have stayed and helped him try save the club. I no they have left before to play else where and returned but the club's best chance to survive is to be in div 7 and rebuild like other clubs have. If they get flogged in div 7 there might be no coming back. If you have ever played Salisbury West in Football & Cricket Blondie would always be there playing or involved in some way.
Of the three McIntyre brothers the youngest is going out to centrals to have a crack at a higher level. Dj didn't want to play in the lower grades so he has moved on to golden grove and the oldest has gone back to brahma lodge to play with a few mates and that's where he previously played a few years before moving to port pirie where he still lives
Re Gradings you get a sense we're potentially in for the same shit fight for season 2016 assuming all 10 teams in D8 retain Cs and Ds, and if any of SHOC, Henley, Flinders Park, ROCs etc. can get their D Grade back up and running.

Promote them to D7 as needed based on where they finish in D8. First to go up are the Premiers.

No arguments can be had then.
I think the worst part is you guys playing a grade footy get the two/three bye yet us guys In div 8 all c grade and d graders have to play every week! We are the ones who need the extra byes. Also didn't modbury play finals last year? How can they go down after that?

The original fixture, 9 teams in each of D6, D7 & D8 was perfect.
So why doesn't the league force that issue Q, am I missing something? This C grade 'super league' has merit, but for me a comp like that should be 'C' grade teams only and not D's E's and how many teams you can muster up. It really makes Adelaide Uni look more and more the professional club they are.
So much this.
Thirded. Already had oodles of respect for the Blacks from playing them a helluva lot over the years and never once having a single issue.
Only thing I am thinking is maybe they are leaving a spot for Wingfield? And that the administration side of things - literal registration of players in Sporting Pulse - hasn't been done yet...??

The grounds are stone throw apart.
So are MP and FU, not the point. I'm thinking of trainers, etc. having to be at both grounds.
