In general I rate the tireless work that goes on behind the scenes to give these blokes a place to play footy and be welcome. As can be seen from their home clubs, these "smaller" footy clubs do a lot of work in order to bring a bit of joy to people from all walks of life.They are a credit in general to the many great things that footy clubs do.
Never get tired of that guernsey.

South Australia has won its first AFL National Inclusion Carnival after stunning arch-rival Victoria Metro with a nail-biting five-point win in the Division 1 Grand Final at Angaston Oval.
Coached by Dave Couzner, the Croweaters lost just two matches en route to the the title-decider after qualifying to play in the highest division at the four-day tournament.
The hosts led for most of the match before the Vics fought back to take the lead in the last quarter, only to see SA regain it with a game-breaking goal.
SA’s Luke Goodman was named best-on-ground, while his twin brother Jesse lifted the trophy as Croweaters’ captain.
Both Jesse and Luke Goodman were named in the All-Australian team, alongside teammate Jack White.
Steven Hall was adjudged SA’s Most Valuable Player while James McBride took home the Matthew Nitschke Spirit of the Carnival Award.
Despite losing to Victoria Metro in the final match of the Lightning Carnival (qualifying period), SA turned the tables when it mattered most to claim its inaugural crown since the Championships began in 2014.
SA succumbed to the Big V again on Monday but the form it built with successive victories against Western Australia and Tasmania on Wednesday proved pivotal.
SA 5.4
