Yes there is. That is extremely short sighted. Playing Premier is not the be all and end all for a football club. After 10+ years of finishing in the bottom 4 of Premier i can bet it’s a relief to many at the club to drop back a level for a while. Losing majority of your games year after year after year is not enjoyable for any club.

Short sighted response. Premier football is beyond the club at the moment. They have been surviving but to build the club up to a level of competitiveness takes resources that they simply cannot just go out and get.

Marby are doing fine, at least div 1 is a bit more competitive. Premier is boring and for the foreseeable future no one will get past the likes of Keilor, strathmore ect
If Avondale retained their current list and added a bit more depth they would automatically be in the conversation for Div.1. Got some players that a clear class above

Rubbish. Build a better club, a better culture, attract strong coaches and players. The lack of foresight is astonishing.

Keilor are beatable no doubt about it. I have a feeling they will clam up and choke on grand final day.

EK in deep trouble
Pat leaves at years end.
Loose probably 10 senior players.
Will struggle to field 2 teams next year when they start to get belted each week.
In 3 years AH will be in a better position than EK by country mile.
DP building well and will challenge for finals next year.

The "blow" who knows all has proclaimed the above, and if that did happen it definitely will not be against DP.

There's been interest from St Augustines primary school for Pat to coach their boys netball team. Currently between him and Ronald McDonald for the job.

Will Pat make it to the end of the season? Some extremely big loses coming up in the last rounds. I believe internally there's trouble brewing for the only coach in the league that has to pay the club to let him stand on the bench and pretend.

You obviously don’t know the league or area too well.
Mighty Mick refers to this every week in his self-absorbed rant about the game. Real flog material
Mate , no-one gives a heck about Premier other than the Premier clubs participating, and most of them are dis-illusioned as they know they can't compete with the Big 3(plus Pacco). Just like no-one in Premier gives a heck about Div 1 , but the difference being in Div 1 most clubs are a chance to be competitive every week which just doesn't happen in Premier

I am happy to help those from the less literate suburbs. You're welcome.

I don’t understand why a club would want to be a good club in an average grade of footy. Wouldn’t you just try and be as good as you can? Marby don’t want to be in Div 1. They’re a proud club that has won Premier flags and can do so again. Had reasonably strong juniors at one stage. If it’s mediocrity you want then by all means win a few games in poorer divisions.
You kidding me ? Was just reviewing the game. I’ll send you a draft next week so you can run your eye over it for me!

That info is in playhq.I’m told Greenvale kicked their one and only goal at the 30 minute mark of the last quarter
Pacco would be strong favourites anyway but after seeing the respective sides that were named, I was surprised they didn't win by more.
