Realistically why would any club want to join the BFL. Looking from the outside in there is a core of 5 relatively strong and successful club and the rest for various reasons have had little success for 20 years. If you are a Marong or White Hills and are happy where you are your not moving. The Maiden Gully scenario is almost as ridiculous as the Broadford proposal. If the BFL board and AFLCENTRALVIC have any plans in mind they need to bring the whole comp ie clubs and supporters with them and the sooner the better otherwise a 5 side comp will be what theve got.(If there is restructure plans for the whole area please let us know,)I am not supporting this position, and have no insight to the Boards thinking.
However, allowing the Country Clubs to fold definitely makes it easier to make it a Bendigo (only) focused league with maybe a White Hills and Marong entering the league. 8 Bendigo based clubs would work.
