Re: Adelaide Plains Football League
We can all vote on to dismiss AV, might as well dismiss junior association as well (yes the APFL is more than just A Grade, though you wouldn't know it) and then what??? I hope all you powers to be have a good 5yr plan for the APFL to survive?? Or do we go back to just limping along yr after yr, I know I don't hold much credit in this league( or here) but being around the APFL 22yrs I would hate to see it disappear in the future and clubs along with it, yep-really hope you guys have a good idea hiding somewhere.

It might seem cynical but everyone was told that last year. This year. Next year.
I do think it will happen but you have to understand there's reason for scepticism.

Dare I ask why you think the APFL is all about the A grade and not the juniors? And perhaps how you think losing 3k a week if good for the Association? Maybe we should have put more effort into assistance to sustain the current clubs instead of the easy solution of replacing them ?

Just like it has been the last 2 years. Only evidence you can go by is what you have provided in the past.
If you don't like it, change it. If you don't want to change it, it can't be that bad!

Re: Adelaide Plains Football League
Going on OnSongs figures clubs are losing $3,000 each time they host AV instead of hosting another club. That's $24,000 a year that the clubs are poorer combined than they would have been 2 years ago.

Clubs don't have to raise funds to pay players during a bye either.

Did he yell at them and hurt their feelings after dropping 2 games in a row? Make them train too hard?
Sounds like Greg Phillips all over again, sacked by the players after he upset them

I know the Rams have new captains etc but this sounds a bit extreme to be true. Surely.
He's the U14s coach too, who are flying of late, especially considering they've struggled with this grade for a long time.

Virginia are holding a function to celebrate Thomas' 1000th game as player/coach next week too.

When we had the bye - we still played 8 home and 8 away game = 16 games, only over a season that was drawn out over a longer period
