VAFA General Discussion 2022-2023-2024

[DoubleDraw]

FWIW new vafa president creating a big footy account and the Herald Sun doing a write up on Div1-Div4 recruits, what other nuggets does 2024 have in store? Bedford as the new mod?

All VAFA posters being named,shamed and charged with 'bring game into disrepute"?

Easy to say for those school boy clubs. Many district clubs don’t have a junior feed.

Easy to say . Why wouldn't the Wicks tap into Elwood High etc

If they don't have any kind of feeder program they will inevitably die. Its important and vafa should be pushing them to try and get one or something similar up, easier said then done i know but not many players are playing into their 30's anymore. Numbers can fall off very quickly.

Obviously no Ormond Juniors at Elwood High. - Go for it Wicks.

Pretty sure East Brighton's juniors train at Elsternwick at times. Perhaps that needs to be part of the set-up.

Have heard that Aquinas have made inquires about joining the EFNL

East Brighton senior club struggle as it is to acquire junior players to transition into the seniors. Reckon if they are lucky it would be about 10% of their list at any given time….so no chance Elsternwick are going to get anything out of this. East Brighton juniors traditionally go to private schools and play for the old boys clubs- Old Brighton, Caulfield Grammarians, Collegians, Haileybury.

Hope so. Hate going to that end of the earth.

Would mean that WP stay in D2 if they do. But also wouldn't mind either.

Good on you as a legend of local sport
