That's what Netball SA did.
Has merit.

I've heard the same. Which means Adelaide will probably lose the City limits and gain some territory west of the railway line.
Would also think that Prospect would lose some ground too.. This would have to be the worst decision ever to have been made

Ummm... Trent Kelly, Peter George, James Smith, Kelvin Smith

You can't just flick away a club that has been around for over 150 years, is functioning well, strong juniors, financially sound, great facilities on field and off, despite the club rooms being sub-leased from the Henley Footy Club. 4 Club Championships in the past 11 seasons.
You've got history as the second oldest club in the state. You've got an Invincible in Ron Hamence. A legend in David Hookes. 12 A Grade Premierships (only behind East Torrens, Kensington and Sturt).
If getting rid of the West Torrens DCC is in the best interests of cricket in this state then I am flabbergasted.

Glenelg may have gained Tilbrook. But I believe they've lost Nick Clayfield - a kid from their country zone who they've invested significant time and games in - to Uni.

Would love to know what happened there. Played As for Bays earlier in season now changes clubs to play B grade?

Probably the biggest concern is losing the likes of Hutchinson, J.Smith, Burridge, McDowall, Pudney and now Tilbrook over the last 3-4 years who all would've been marked as A Graders or were playing A Grade. There is still plenty of talent though. Enough to be confident of the future, should the axe not fall from the SACA.

Good thing you got rid of your coach then because all of those (bar Smith) can be attributed to him.

Not all of them, Pudney was the previous coach. To be fair, all the others had issues, majority want to be picked in A's when they had never performed in B's, and when given a go never did anything. Fine line between picking on potential or on performance.
Talented juniors these days expect to be handed everything on a platter and don't want to work at it and either make runs or take a bag of wickets to earn promotion!
McDowell was different again, we wanted him to play A's, but he did not want to. Evn refuse to bat in the nets against the A Grade bowlers. When Trent Kelly went off at him for being a soft c..k, he spat it and quit for couple of games, went off sulking. Woodville then targeted him as needed a leggie.
Having said all that, most of those names mentioned woud use the coach as the reason they left!

Should be a great game with some quality quicks and clean hitters of the ball strutting their stuff.
