i think your right, Maroochydore will be the improvers again. Mayne won't go anywhere. I'm a worried about Noosa, the in house politics hurt them this year and they've lost the best two youngsters. Even with the addition of a couple of Vic boys and a few Nambour lads. I think it's gonna take abit for everyone to gel. Time will tell.
I still have a few good mates up there, and they just told me things, nothing I want to repeat. No point airing dirty laundry as they say. It's like it with most clubs I reckon, everyone has there favourites. But new coach, new lease of life hopefully for the the Tigers.Interested in that comment swampy - in what respect as someone who spent a short time there last year you must have noticed something?
Not sure you could leave out Mayne, having won successive flags in both grades.Thats not a bad idea Sunnyman, but I would prefer to see Maroochydore and Noosa in the QAFL making it a 12 team comp, which will give QAFL a much needed team from the Sunshine Coast. It would keep alive the strong rivalry between these two which is important for local supporters interest. That leaves 4 teams from the North to join the south comp, then simply called QFA. With Mayne, Aspley and Moreton Bay all northern Bris teams, the impact of travel will only be felt by Caloundra and those having to visit them. I also agree with Smy that the objection of travel is overplayed as an excuse not to do something like this. Players at Maroochydore that I talked to last year said they would much prefer to drive to GC for a competitive game than to drive to Nambour and win by 30 goals.
Problem with that scenario TT (and yes, it would be a good one fo the nth teams) is that the south conf teams are affected adversely. Some of them (and rightly so) will argue "well too bad, too sad, our comp is alright, why stuff it bc yours isn't".
Really hard for our young kids who are say U17 and hoping to be in the State squad and want to play senior footy mixed with State footy. They want to play in a good comp. Plus of course the blokes who stick fat year in year out. Just think it is total head in the sand stuff, should have been sorted Oct last year and would have been a really good, vibrant 3rd tier comp. Too many people who dont really understand footy at the lower levels who keep on saying "distance is a problem". Well its not for most guys and if it is then like water, they will find a level.
I understand that Johnny, but there is already two teams in QAFL from the same area of Brisbane being W Grange and Sandgate.
As premature as UQ and Sandgate?Mayne have looked good the past 2 years, but their best players aren't getting any younger.
It would be premature to have them in the QAFL
Given the division lower than this one has more travel, the travel argument has been complete bollocks for a few years now.
They absolutely should have merged the Nth and South, and just dropped the bottom sides into QAFA A.
South wouldn't like that though, as Springwood are the only side that would get near Mayne and Maroochydoore (and given rumours of players leaving the Pumas - Mayne, Noosa and Maroochy would make up 3 of the finals spots before a ball is bounced.)
QAFL that's the great thing about this time of year, rumours. The Pumas will be just fine with a few new recruits confirmed today and hopefully more to come over the coming weeks.
