Start as East and West this year with 8 in each and the two Top 4's would become Division 1 the following year and the rest play in Division 2.

What would your Top 8 look like Dairy? Strsthy vs Katty GF on the Cards?
Strathy, Katty, Waaia, then a chook raffle, I think will be a big gap after the top three. A few clubs are struggling from a few rumours I’ve heard.
By seasons end Tungamah we’re as good as any and appear to have improved again .
I’d think as per any year a tad less than a 1/3rd will go backwards , bit better than a 1/2 will hold or improve slight and the remainder will improve significantly .
Are the PDFL clearances available for the general public to see anywhere Roar?
As you are aware I have asked the same question upon the GVL thread and it appears they are not available on the playHq system .
Forgot about Tungamah, but would be surprised if anyone else would get close to that top four
Seems a couple of Leagues have them up but most don't. Obviously a teething problem of the new system.
Which leagues have them , the only options I can see on any I’ve viewed is results or ladders .
VAFA & Essendon are the two I've seen.
Just looked , is still upon sportstg . Assume metro is staying with sportstg at least for this year ?
Could be the case the Southern League also seem to be still using the old format too.
Sam Ferguson to Tungamah will be a handy inclusion too. Been Appointed Ass Coach.

Big gap between the haves and have-nots?
Not just in our league but a few leagues. I think the way things are heading is that we have probably 5-7 to many clubs for the populations of rural towns. You only have to look at Benella and Mooroopna to see that country footy is in big trouble (shepp bears/untied as well). There is a number of factors that come into play but if this year is another non finish year then i think the number of clubs to go around again will be a lot less. Senior sides are easy to fill but junior and reserve sides is a whole other problem.
I'm losing count but there would have to be at least 12-18 'call to arms' messages sent out by clubs in the past four weeks in Victoria alone. Add to that a handful in Tassie as well.
As you say, if we cannot get a full season then I wouldn't think it would be fanciful to see as many as a dozen senior clubs take their final bow in 2022 (either on the field or as a non-starter). Some of these clubs may be lucky enough to keep their traditions alive as part of a merger but some may not get that chance.
Already, Kaniva-Leeor United and Nhill are going to amalgamate at the end of this season as they both see the writing on the wall in their region and it's just a matter of what the new club name and nickname will be and what league they play in.
