This is not a comeback from me but found the following worthy of a post to see certain posters reactions.
The MRFC are seriously considering leaving the PLFL to join GF. I'm led to believe they have had several internal meetings regarding the issue and have even had what was meant to be a confidential meeting with officials from GF.
They can see their club suffering severely in the coming years from the problem of having a daughter in PL for netball while a son is out at Wangary playing football. One parent in Lincoln, one at Wangary running two vehicles!!
I already know of a couple of my mates out there with kids that are going to join GF clubs regardless, once their kids reach sporting age. The names of these families are long time MR families but in this day and age and the travel factor this is by far the easier and more cost efficient option. The whole family will be at one venue and I can understand completely (especially as Mum can drive Dad home

)
They are looking at adopting Bulldogs colours and this could happen a lot sooner than a lot of people think. The departure of MR from the PLFL would certainly weaken our comp and it's credibility with one of the biggest supported clubs jumping ship.
It's now time for some
serious discussions to take place to fast track the alignment of football and netball clubs so a joint super league can be formed to ensure a healthy and vibrant standard of footy on the lower EP.
So, what do we think of that.......
