GFNL Discussion 2024

AFL Barwon have picked up the 'three-division' drum and started banging it again.

I can't see the G&DFL ever coming to the party on that issue.

I think it’s best to just get Armstrong creek and surf coast suns in and that will make 24 teams ( 3 x 8 teams ) , just forget the GDFL

Cant see GDFL clubs considering a move whilst Neville W is at the helm. Why would they anyway? Most of the clubs in the GDFL would be either Div 2 or 3 in a Super AFL Barwon 3 Div comp and lose all their best players to the Div 1 Clubs. They are well looked after as is and would be an after thought if gobbled up by AFL Barwon.

For all your GFNL talk.

A slow old Sunday. Was going through ladders in country competitions. What an even comp you have. Top 4 teams all on the same points with 5th side 4 points behind. Is there a favourite?

Like most leagues since the introduction of the points system, it’s become a very boring and predictable comp. St Mary’s, Colac, Joeys always strong and now only stronger because of the points system and junior set ups. Leopold and Newtown always around the mark, South and Bell Park up and down. Grovedale and Geelong West competitive but not good enough to consistently compete. North Shore, Lara and St Albans down the bottom. That’s pretty much been the tale of the league since 2017

That’s a pity. Hopefully you have a good finals series

What was the outcome for finals? I saw through the week that 4 points separated 1st and 5th. Are there any ex Geelong players playing/coaching in the league?
