Yes sir Zed, we did and maybe we should all live in the past. Maybe we could talk about other clubs that have done it without seeking permission from the league. It's all about using your mouth and asking. If the league said no we wouldn't have done it. Hold it against the league not the club.



actually the club had 2 or 3 meetings and made a big deal about it i remember it clear as day cause you had the north adelaide ruckmen at the time your football director at the time nearly cryed to the other clubs as well at one point

Yep that's it. I seriously don't know why other clubs didn't use it as a precedent. The league couldn't have said no but no other club applied for it. I found that very hard to understand!!


Kilburn were screwed over which cost them 3 games i recall, they still clawed their way back & won the flag.

SAAFL has promotion/relegation so why do they even need a points system? If a side is poor they move down to a level they can compete at and then the natural football cycle usually seems them up sooner or later etc.

Can any country clubs who have been long term cellar dwellers honestly say they're now better off? Has anyone as a direct result actually gone from bottom to top?

Shouldn't we really be trying to build some loyalty in to the lives and development of our kids?
