Possibly answering my own question but, Is there any reason why the U18's Championship is only contested by the 3 traditional footballing states? I'm assuming Tasmania falls under Victoria these days.
With the AFL now having teams in both NSW and Queensland, is there not an U18's development programme in those states?

Split into 2 divisions JTC

SA, WA & Vic Metro & Vic Country make up Division 1. The rest play Division 2



Super keen to see Norwood's Luke Partington do well, much rather see a lad from back home drafted from Norwood than Port ;)
