There seems to be a lot of coaching jobs being advertised this off-season so I imagine that's going to lead to a lot of player movement as well.

Coburg advertised announced and then advertised again.

In fact what would be more helpful is if the league came out with who in what division because as normal the players and coaches know and is shared by the grapevine instead of by the league which doesn't help its reputation of being a 2nd rate comp.

Most people know Keysborough, Melb Uni are in CM and you can assume that includes Bellarine (what a finals run) yet the league can produce anything yet?

Teams advertising what division they are in for tryouts yet nothing has been officially confirmed - remember when Whittlesea did that last season?? (Nothing learned)

Good to see the improving gulls are back.will be interesting to see if they can get a decent player in each squad.noticed the much improved youth women,are gone.
Recruited well,obviously

"Keysborough, Melb Uni are in CM"

Why?

Needed 10 teams in the league Bellarine promoted and Keys/Melb Uni strong records in D1 to come up. More surprised by Melb Uni as we know its Hawthorn not Melb Uni and seems a bit rich to allow whole clubs just to move and then be promoted.

D1M with the record for most amount of hours in the car, Warrnambool, Shepparton, Pakenham, Gippsland & Southern Pen. Collingwood better get a bus sponsor or any metro based team.

REF:Rr. What,did you think Chelsea deserved to stay there.

^
Umm Chelsea won there way up

Mic drop

Pics mic up

They finished bottom = relegation

Places mic back down

Rr gone a bit quite.
Yes they did earn their spot,BUT,they also stuffed the club up by kicking out the hard workers.
The gulls are of total irrelevance now.

So since ya think you have all the answers

If everyone basing teams going down cos they finish last but ya'll going to keep second last in the comp

Why do 2 teams that didnt even make the GF or get close to winnin D1 go up?

If teams get to move randomly why cant teams stay up randomly?

Call the league office?

They need teams up in the CM division to make it a 10 team comp.

Rr,
Give up,take a bex and a.long lie down.
Hope you get over it

Yes second last stay in because they didn't finish last.

More than gf came up becuase bigV need to get more numbers into scm and stabilise it. The teams that went up are much better squads and other factors than Chelsea.

This isn’t random , random would be not the bottom teams moving up and champions/contenders moving up.

Random would be a 6th place team being promoted while say a 3rd place team being relegated.

didn't camberwell get promoted having finished 5th or 6th the previous season??

So,it would appear that the gulls have stitched up their pockets and are going without recruiting stars.getting ready for div 2 the following season.
Wouldn't they like to wind the clock back a little

Camberwell went up seeing as though most of their squad came over from hawthorn Scm. Wonder why all of a sudden camberwell have vc teams?

Billy Bob,
You say "Camberwell went up seeing as though most of their squad came over from hawthorn Scm"

Now in part, you are correct. That is what they said in order to achieve promotion.

My question is, how many Hawthorn players played at Camberwell last year? Could you name them?

Nope.
Some split between there and Melbourne uni I believe?

Wouldn't be the first time a club has been promoted off basis of playing list and it being different come round 1.


Chelsea still exactly where they should be regardless

No players from Hawthorn at Camberwell they all went to Melb Uni with the Coach to play D1

According to the official season structure released last week, all divisions are playing single game Grand Finals. Does anybody know the reasoning behind this? Or if it is even correct?

Yes correct. Thinking is the lower team on the ladder has the first round at home and therefore the advantage.

Yet Championship Women and D2 Women semis remain a best-of-three series with lower seed hosting Game 1. Lmao. Big V is the gift that keeps on giving!

killin the Big V bit by bit

started with the cancellation of big v tv, then last year cancelled the end of season awards night and now the play off series
