Im more than aware that people like to be proud of there competition and as such never like to take a backward step when discussing it but throughout this forum since the long weekend all we hear about is the excuses rep sides have or how good an association is as they won.
Firstly (let me repeat myself) the SFL is not the best association in South Australia and the SFL is NOT on par with Div 1. SAAFL! Had to add that - sorry but some of those boys are dilerious!
My opinion is that every rep side face the same dilemma, unfortunately the best players all want to rest and unfortunately many of the best players are also over 25 years old. If round robin shields are not going to be brought back into contention then atleast every year each association needs to play a different associaiton to the year before. On top of this, if rep sides are going to feature the best players in that league then association (I hate to say it) will be forced to pay these players for the game - until this is done rep footy will continue to be second rate and the teams will be picked on who rocks up rather than who was invited. It sucks but its the way footy has become - club before association - money before pride.
Your thoughts?
