Also my understanding is they've all gone to EP - who have 4x sides this year - and only one C grade girl went to Fitzroy.
Unfortunately the dominance of Eyre Royals, and the lack of effort put in to level the competition playing field over the years has decimated the women's competition. Interesting that the one season where they're finally pitted against themselves in A/B grade, the B grade win, and the fall out is their girls all walk away.

Don't think that's too unpopular. Most would agree, they had their time in the sun, one year as the whipping girls won't hurt too much.

There lies the problem, the girls that will be getting whipped didn’t have their time in the sun, there’s no right or wrong solution, it’s just astounding how it all imploded beyond repair.

No 1) There must be a 25 meter circle marked out. 2 fielders inside for the first 10 and max 5 outside for the rest of the time. Failure to mark this line each game will result in a forfeit!
No 2) all leg sides are wides.
No 3) There are free hits for no ball front foots and full tosses over the waist.
I was of the understanding that these were always things that were assumed, but no one really played them all.
Was this everyone else's understanding? Since finding out this during the week, we have marked the circle, and i will be enforcing these laws at the toss for each game we play.
Thoughts?

3) would be fun to do but have never seen it followed.

Was their 'version' of having an inner circle rule when it became too hard for clubs to make sure the inner circle was done and the fact no teams would police as given the fact fielders could start outside the circle when the ball commenced his run up but had to be in by the time the bowler bowled. The circles weren't always the most visible etc. and it was reliant on square leg seeing and making the call which is often the umpiring positions for newer or younger players.
The ring at Eastern Park when it used to be enforced was funny because you were three quarters of the way to the boundary if you stayed on the edge of the ring haha.
