Adelaide University is the most unique club in the Amateur League in many ways, and few seem to understand this;

There are 8 teams, the A's (Div 2), B's (Div 2R) and C's (Div 7) are the top 3 teams internally and are comprised completely of players that want to play as high as they can (ie comparable to all other Football clubs in philosophy). However, of the other 5 teams, C2 is basically comprised of students from Adelaide University's Roseworthy Campus (The Farmers), whilst the remaining 4 teams (Div 7R, C1, C4 & C5 - generally regarded as the bottom team in the club, called The Scum) are effectively their own self-sufficient groups of friends playing under another mate who 'coaches' the team. In other words, Legrand's team Div 7R is not the D grade as you would understand it, it is simply the grade his team plays in (mainly because they want to play early games and also play at main University Oval). For example, if they wanted to play late games, or play at Park 10 (Uni's 2nd Oval), they would swap grades with another team, get it?

Hope this clears things up a bit, and although Legrand played 3 games as asked in the Uni's A's last year (Div 1) to try to help the club avoid its first ever relegation, he only continues to play to be with his mates. No-one at Uni gets paid, he doesn't chase money, and due to the way the lower grades are structured as explained above, there are about 10 to 15 other players along with him that could easily play A's or B's if they wanted to.

Very interesting setup, basically 3 clubs under the one name.

Is this the chocka who subjected many poor blokes to basic accounting at Adelaide Uni?

Carey18 who picks your best players? As captain do you have any input?

[None]

Carey18 who picks your best players? As captain do you have any input?

i'd love to know who picks our best aswell pfft....................

Why don't you ask Carey? He seems to be of the same opinion. It was actually the 1st time I'd watched Paralowie this year. Thought a guy who kicked 6 goals may have made it into your best

[None]
