QFA Div 4&5

Much better than travelling 200+ km to get a similar result. Players will play at this level of footy when they know it's a short trip, not because its a super competitive game.

To be fair in response no one in Brisbane wanted to head up to the Sunny Coast on Friday night either. So you’re welcome to a Sunny Coast comp.

I just wonder how it helps Ipswich Cats, Rattlers, Ferny Grove, etc and clubs that are aiming to head to Saturday footy and play Div 2 against the Sandgates, Alex Hills & Redcliffes or the Div 2 Coolys, Burleigh & Bonds can get to that level playing those sorts of games.

The Friday night comps have grown astronomically so travel may not have been the devil it’s made out to be.

depends on the team, for someone who has been involved in this space for 17 years now, I can assure you that the Woodies missing finals for the first time ever was at least 50% attributable to the amount of travel required in recent years becoming unattractive for blokes that typically make up the side.

Jimboomba was once the outpost, its now just your average away game!

Irrelevant of all the cons the idea of local comps on a Friday nite is the right way to go. Unlike most decisions made this one actually makes sense.

I think it’s coming for all community footy on a Saturday as well Lagging.

So SC, Central and GC?

Surely there would need to be a south and north central? More so due to amount of central teams there are.

All Friday night footy must now to be converted to AFL 9s. Players can only register if they live within 7.5kms from the venue. Rates notice or utility bill required upon registration.

Yea that was my understanding based on last we heard. Brisbane North and Brisbane South. Plus the GC and SC comps.

Makes perfect sense
