He'd still be the slowest mid fielder out there!

Especially since Ben Weekley is out with a shoulder reco.

Heyyy Bennnyyyyyyy

Wealth Thach is a B grader

To be fair, at the moment, don't think 11 players will have the dominant affect you think - they'll be good, but don't think they'll be the calibre of Smithfield or Salis West.. it's still half a team made up of B/C graders.

They'll be good in Div 7 - prob flag favorites - but unless they recruit another 10 genuine A graders they wouldn't make much impact on Div 6..

I guess the question is, would a Div5 Premiership side that folds the following year and comes back into Div7 with half of the Div 5 side beat a Div6 side? or more to the point would they beat a D1Reserves side?

Seriously one of these days we really need to arrange a D6 v D1R match haha!!

Isn't it D5 v D1R as the usual argument?

Would have thought the success of Henley, SHOC, TTG, Uni and PAOC over the years in D7 had established the relative bona fides of D6/7 to 1R?

Well let's have a round robin hit out - D5 v D1R and D6 v D1R ... maybe throw in a D2R for good measure

i did put it out there a couple of years ago and tried to organise this very game, getting the D6 team was easy - it was just the D1R team that was hard. Couldn't even get a composite side.

Maybe we should try again

Because the D1R players are too afraid of the chance they may lose..

@Jo172

Yup:

And Thach played in their D5 flag.

Wrong Thach - there are like 3 or 4 of them.. Win Thach played in the flag, Wealth is a B grader.
