I think there is several admin and logistics issues with this but I am all for it.
The club hosting that Div could make of it what they wish and could obviously throw in raffles, BBQ, whatever really 2 x 30 minute counts with a club appointed host and an executive member would take it to the people . Undoubtably some venues would hold a cracking count and some would make it a stinking flop but I think there is some merit to revamping the format.
Again it would mean a lot of extra work for some but might give the medal a little more meaning. Say for instance Div 5 was at Rosewater. They have the power point, a large table reserved for each of the ten clubs, bar, canteen, BBQ, hosted by Media star Shaun "the Diff" Jacobsen, a still camera would work, an executive member or league rep, div 5 former winner/club legend/div 5 former star to present to the winner. Wouldn't actually be that challenging for a club to host and would be very easy to promote.
I guess the first step would be getting a club from Div 3-7 to stick their hand up to host a count and then work out where to tack on the C,s and 18,s.
Maybe I'm having delusions of grandeur but I'd head to a local club for a count, I think it would work admittedly at various levels of success.
