Sturt are on board is the hot tip with a joint venture
This will help get more teams across the border surely ?
What does everyone think
Would your club support the tournament as a multi club event ?
Should it stay as Norwood with more support since Norwood would also have many teams keen to play in other carnivals also ?

What the community think about a local carnival is of relevance surely ?
Sturt have been offering this to Norwood for decades but Norwood wouldn't give up cash. Nothing new.
Imagine interstate teams discovering Sturt arent that great anymore. Just sounds like desperation by both clubs.
I think you'll find a lot of interstate teams aren’t going anymore. They’ve been warned against going at the risk of potentially missing makeup VJBL games in the holidays.
That's absolute garbage. There have never been talk of vjbl games in the holidays.
It's not garbage. All due to the missed week with the circuit breaker.

Haven't heard about vjbl make-up games but the reality is that people don’t want to travel. Some were burnt with non-refunds for costs last year (accom etc) and others just don’t want to get stuck with lockdowns. Vics more than anyone are sensitive to this! That will change and Vica will be back, but a bit early for this Easter.
Will end up like the Adelaide Invitational Challenge, everyone is in, then everyone cancels and Norwood end up playing Sturt for 4 days straight.
Wow who would imagine. Norwood working with Sturt especially with ACBA spreading its tentacles into Unley!!
Sturt have to get involved, only classic they will be competing in for a while.
Easter classic pays half CJs wage, no chance they split with Sturt
