If you're 50/50 to make finals then you could effectively schedule a twilight or night game towards the end of the season and just have your whole B grade have a few hours rest then double up again at night and nothing will be said by the league. If you ain't got enough players don't have a C grade, simple!!
Trouble is that you may have 90+ players in February which soon becomes 60 odd come June/ July.
True but you're allowed 25 in the C grade comp doesn't mean you have to use them all. Kilburn started with 18 on Saturday and had 7 Div 3R players rock up at 1/4 time to play the rest of the game, just don't think it's fair. Wouldn't be able to do it in finals so why now?
I used to do that a long long time ago when I was fit. Didn't have a great impact on the game coz I was absolutely nackered from playing the previous game, but the only thought in my head was to help the lower grade out with the numbers.
I dont see what the issue is?
