SAAFL Div 7 & Div 7R (2011)

[The Informer]

I find it abit strange that shoc have only name 22 in As and Bs but a full 25 in c6 tomorrow,would have thought a full bench on a wet day would be more of an advantage,being a gf you would want all the help you can get.Dont clubs normally pick teams from highest to lowest grades?Can players go up and play 2 games if theve already played in previous gf that day?would be spewing if you only named 4 on the bench and got 4 injuries by half time,i would have thought that the d grade would be the least priority to field 25?

Yes we do - seems like maybe you have a predisposition to SHOC?

Hi mate, just wondering how Conner H and Darcy feel after playing most of there games in Div 1R including the finals, only to have to play in Div 7 2m?

Zac would feel the same, over 75% games in 1R only to be dropped.

Grand Finals bring out the best in me!

As for the lads getting dropped, I'm not sure how they feel. As a club we're pretty tight at the moment so that helps that even though you go down a grade you still get to play with your mates (as well as in a GF). I probably feel worse for the guys in the E grade who are copping the full force of people coming down. Not sure of exact numbers but there might be about 10-15 guys who played a lot during the season but have been forced out due to the grades above.

Yes i agree, must be hard to play Div 1R most of the season and then only get to play in a Div 7 grand final. Got to love those fair rules hey

The B grade picked a 22, and those not in the 22 are playing C grade and so on.

A GF is a GF regardless of what grade it is (Div7 isn't exactly a nothing grade) - I'm pretty sure our lads are keen to chuck on a SHOC jumper in any grade they can

All im saying mate is there is no use having the rules about where you have played the majority of games during the season if it can just get thrown out the window like it has.
Guys who have played nearly 75 to 80 % in Div 1r dropping down to 7 is a bit rough. Then again it wouldn't be fair for these blokes to miss out due to weight of numbers?

Come on you Mozzies!!! Good luck Riddler and the boys, bring home the bacon!

um easy, the b grade coach says this is my 22 for next week c grade coach, c grade coach says ok here is my 22 d grade coach. d grade coach goes ok here is my 22 e grade coach. The e grade coach picks his 22. I dont understand why this is so difficult to comprehend??? Dont know what happens in bizarro world but this is the logical way

It's a SAAFL rule that all teams must be named, even if one has the rest. If SHOC are knocked out in Division 1 this week, but their Division 1 Reserves play in the GF next week, it's a way of ensuring that there aren't a raft of changes made to the Division 1 Reserves team (ie. dropping players down from their A's).
