Romour: Woodville and Western

I'm told from a reliable source that Woodville Warriors and Western Magic have agreed to merge and will compete in the district competition as the Woodville Magic Basketball Association.

To me it seems Woodville have given up their identity to a club that really should never have existed.

Thoughts?

That a Romour is either someone who walks the planet telling stories that may or may not be true.

Or that they are decendent of ancient Rome who refuses to wear anything but hand me down battle armour.

No amalgamation. Magic players will be able to play div 1 as Woodville players. Div 2 etc. will remain as is.

Modern Girl,
Magic are a lot stronger than most people think. Although they can't play Div 1, the teams they have put are are very competitive in Divs 2 and 3 and you only need to look at the ladders this season to see that they are doing very well. Probably a lot better than Woodville, or West if the analysis is done.
The merging (or alliance) of Woodville and Western will form a very strong association in the western suburbs.

Jack , the ego's of the two women running each club wont allow for a successful merger. One is in charge of everything and is intent on keeping it that way and the other left woodville because of her.
Both clubs need to fold and leave the catchment to Wests because there are too many district clubs and not enough players to support them. Adelaide can support 6 district teams at best. Wests, Norwood, Sturt, Forestville and looking to the future Southern and Centrals.
Souths' juniors are in diabolic trouble and norths not much better while Mavericks have temporarily bought their teams and woodville is struggling to stay mediocre.

ANON #259097 HOW DARE YOU SAY ANYTHING BAD ABOUT THOSE TWO WOMEN IF YOU DON'T KNOW ALL THE FACTS. ONE LADIE IN PARTICULIAR HAS DONE SO MUCH FOR BASKETBALL IN THE WESTERN SURBURBS IT'S NOT FUNNY AND MAINLY DOES IT FOR THE CHILDREN NOT FOR HERSELF. SHE DID NOT LEAVE THE OTHER CLUB BECAUSE OF THE OTHER PERSON LIKE YOU SAID, SHE LEFT TO PLAY BASKETBALL WITH HER FRIENDS AND STAYED AT THE CLUB TO HELP ALL THE JUNIOR TEAMS WHICH IS WHY NOW SHE IS THE PRESIDENT. SO YOU DO NOT KNOW EVERYTHING YA TOOL. IT PISSES ME OFF WHEN PEOPLE LIKE YOU WRITE SHIT LIKE THIS WHEN YOU DO NOT KNOW ALL THE FACTS. THE PERSON I AM REFERRING TO IS AN HONEST, RELIABLE AND HAS DEDICATED SO MUCH TIME AND EFFORT FOR BSA AND BASKETBALL IN THE WESTERN SUBURBS AND DOES NOT GET ANY CREDIT FOR HER WORK. GET A LIFE YA WANKER AND STOP BAGGING NICE PEOPLE.

110.
I agree with the wanker, two women in the kitchen won't work and the reasons Magic broke away from Woodville depends on which club tells the story. I also agree with too many district clubs but not with the above choices.
If Magic and Woodville merge there is no reason to suggest they will be any more competitive than when they were a united club previously.They will just have more teams. Neither club has the coaches to go forward hence lyn holland coaches 4 or so teams is secretary, development officer and senior women's coach. That hardly suggests a bundle of talent in the wings to develop youngsters.

The Devil went down to St Clair and Woodville sold their soul. Wasn't that a song?

the cancer in the club will ensure woodville never moves forward, self centred interest will always prevail

yeah supposedly folk lore has the merger being chucked out - has though cost one club several members from commitees who dare to ask too many questions - interestingly though nobody cares and campers still are happy. Way forward has to be restructure and maybe times are looming for some hard decisions by leaders and getting a sense of direction
hard working ladies you been referring too are too harashly treated with little upport given - step up
