It would seem West, Norwood and Sturt are lobbying for a change in the zones to boost their rural areas.
Centrals, are apparently opposed to this, as it could see lose more of the Barossa.
For the record West has one of the largest zones but has the least number of kids playing in it.

So all clubs have potentially the same amout of potential footballers to pick from/ develop.
The zones will change but not significantly. Given the population growth up at Mount Barker and in the Barossa one would think Sturts and Centrals zone would shrink geographically but not in number of potential footabllers.

SANFL UNDERAGE STRUCTURE REVIEW
This evening (Tuesday, August 5), the SANFL Commission met with League Directors to discuss a proposed new structure for the SANFL’s underage competitions and talented player pathway.
The meeting afforded League Directors the opportunity to further consider key elements of the proposal.
The key elements include the establishment of Centres of Excellence at each SANFL club and the introduction of a new Elite Under 18 competition supported by a truncated Under 16 competition, which would replace the existing Under 17/Under 19 competitions.
This proposed new structure aims to increase the number of underage players progressing to SANFL League football, increase the composition of South Australian players in SANFL League teams, enhance the performance of the state’s Under 18 team in the National Championships and increase the number of South Australians drafted to the AFL.
The majority of League Directors were in favour of the proposed changes.
The decision rests with the Commission, which meets later this month.
