Will that put Rams and Rovers in the same comp?

 

[Trent the flight Steward]

They want divisions, as aflvic want picola gone.

Yeah I reckon. Picolas stubbornness will see them gone. Won't take long for clubs to turn on the league.

Sad thing is its not the league it's one bloke at the root of all the issues

Over 70% of clubs being in favour of not accepting affiliation would suggest otherwise .

The choice not to affiliate is not necessarily the issue, it's the way matters are handled that have put PDFNL on the outer

 

[Trent the flight Steward]

Why dont you guys maybe get out behind your keyboards and speak to the league? It's a free country if their were that big of problems the league can just get rid of the ceo, like they did with the last one

 

[Footy fiend11]

I think some of the main dilemma here from AFL vic standpoint lie within the KDFL, Ardmona and Rushworth gone and a handful of others on the brink, Shepp East, Murchison, Dookie all showing intent to be involved in the new Murray League arrangement - 6 sides currently not filling under 18’s is a real problem for them going forward. I’m not sure a divisional system in the Murray league is the answer but who knows. Maybe reintroducing the Tungamah League and the Picola League going back to single division would be a possible solution but finding enough people interested to run the leagues is a battle which I guess is the reason they’re looking at this option as it’d require minimal extra league staffing/board etc

 

["The Roar Is Back"]

Katandra and Tungamah within their current situations are destination clubs for juniors , out of the nearby junior comps , and from what I can understand Murch have positioned themselves into a similar position now within the KDFL . It’s awesome for the clubs involved , they should be applauded for the work they’ve done to reach this point and it’s well and truly reasonable for them to be concerned of junior numbers within other clubs and the affect it has on their club remaining an attractive option . Particularly with the points system in play .
Shepp East were also in the same / similar position in the picola league .
However clubs strong junior position can change very quickly with change of leagues etc , as has been seen in the last few years when change has occurred .
Open discussions should continue to be ongoing, particularly including the individual clubs and their league, and between the two leagues, KDFNL and PDFNL .

By the sounds of it there's more discussions between clubs in the PDFNL and MFL than there arw PDFNL and KDFNL...

With MFL’s discussions being public and the KDFNL and PDFNL’s not , it is absolutely a fair assumption .

Both are public.. one just hasn't been in the paper

 

[Footy fiend11]

I’d heard the Rovers may look to go to the Golden Rivers league

 

[Tandy]

What about Numurkah? I'm surprised at their lack of success over the years.

Perfect example of how quickly junior things Violet Town in 2018 had 8 Junior players registered for 1 Junior Grade 4 seasons later and we have 78 Juniors registered and potentially looking at finding a home for another Junior Football team to fill the gaps between auskick and 14s and being able to field all Junior netball grades for the first time since Joining the KDL

Any inkling as to how a two-division set-up would look?

• Have three clubs go into the new division and have two divisions of 10 depending on club numbers (a balanced 18-round fixture for both)?
• The 13 MFL clubs remain and new clubs form a new separate competition?

A change in the structure is necessary in the region to ensure stability for clubs and leagues but what is the best way forward for the sport?

It is one League trying to drive change in other leagues :

A separate competition, with Tocumwal involved. Leaving the MFL with the same 12 clubs from 2022.

Not a Division 2. No promotion/relegation, unless that was explicitly sought by the individual club.

 

[jayco13]

It is one League trying to drive change in other leagues :

Or is it one league trying to be proactive due to the decline in minor leagues??

 

[whats the go]

Could this be a chance for a couple of MFL clubs to possibly drop back if they wish.

 

["The Roar Is Back"]

That league has its own issues/ declining and might be better off looking after them . But maybe that’s the motive ??

Most leagues have some sort of issues.... as you should know. Maybe this is a change that will be beneficial to all clubs if it comes to fruition

So Points and salary cap the same as MFL and same standing in points system as MFL ?

 

[MortlockWatcher]

I'm thinking the cap would be lower but dunno about what points would be on offer - probably similar to what they are used to now.

I would like to see tiered points based on ladder positions come in - the more leagues that push to implement it, the better.
