Either way they would need to merge with a smaller supporter base club ( e.g. South ) to give both sides a lift.... in other words not Norwood !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![]()
Start by playing some night games @ Coopers Stadium as Sturt usually turn up in numbers there when they play the Redlegs. Maybe change Unley games to Coopers @ night when they play Norwood or go the other way and only play there against neutral team ??? Sturt v North where both clubs are reasonably close to Norwood should work.
Mergers are what companies, charities and schools etc do. Football clubs don't merge they give up.
