I think the point is with Flinders Park is regardless of who you have from last years C or D grade side, the fact remains you have been able to drop a side and remain in the lowest grade.

At least should've played in Div 7 and if you copped floggings so be it.

Or maybe play C grade against your mob in C4. That's fair don't you think ?

Actually yes I do think it's fairer strangely enough.

You're a C grade side - and one that has had considerable sustained success recently, if you want to continue competing in an A grade comp ie Div 7 then surely you get treated the same, otherwise play C grade divisions.

Although probably a poor comparison, imagine if Kilburn & Brahma decided to compete in the reserve grade? People would kick up a monster stink

Do you seriously think we wanted to play div 7 reserves mate!! It was out of our hands.
Would we like to have both sides C and D grade yes but we don't.

For us it fell apart real quick, by the time we realised we were struggling for numbers it was too late.
For a club that has 4 grades we need at least 50 or so to fill both teams.
I think we lost around 30 blokes from last years C and D's.
So answer is "NO" :oops:

As the Cows says when the wheels fell off it was very late. The club did their best to get the team into C2 which ties up with our A's & B's. Unfortunately that grade was full and the association put us in D7R. I think the boys probably would have preferred to play in one of the C grade comps but that option was not avaliable. In regard to 18's playing I'm not sure. I'm not a player and haven't been for sometime. I'm just an interested observer ;)

interesting range of results occurring so far...


smithfield smash uni at uni by 10 goals from memory

uni smash houghton at houghton by about 8 goals

houghton smash wingfield by 30 goals

modbury smash wingfield also by 30 goals

henley gets past modbury a week later after also getting just pass shocs

but shocs then come out and smash north pines by 10-15 goals

and smosh in their only game got a nice mauling by smithfield

are we looking at a 50 goal win for smithfield when they play wingfield?

My feeling is Wingfield are a better side at home, but I do wonder how many of the ring-ins will stick around if they keep getting belted?

North Pines will get better, I don't think all their 'ins' played on the weekend.

Football math doesn't usually add up though.
