On the other hand, the introduction of two strong clubs into the League, will, after getting over the anomaly of their introduction, be for the benefit of the League as a whole.
one of the potential new clubs left the league to seek glory elsewhere..like edwardstown did..now they get welcomed back with the red carpet laid out and long serving loyal member clubs get shafted! /rant_over
Completely understand your point.
I'm still of the view that the extent the addition of strong clubs will add to the stability (which has been lacking in recent years re Para Hills, Kilburn etc.) will ultimately be to the League's benefit.
At the end of the day it's one year.
