Ashwood have probably been keeping an eye on Oakleigh Districts this season in EFNL Div 4 (yes let's call it what it is) & are weighing up whether travelling to the foot of the mountains every other week is really worth risking the future of their club.
Totally agree.

They will be ok. They have a good president, he just needs more help. Too many people in clubs happy to sit back and comment and not put their hand up for jobs. Gone are the days of having 15 general committee members who just talk footy. Need people who provide meaningful input
Which div they are going in?
Really struggling in the 5th division of the VAFA so D3 or D4 seems the logical starting point. Have had their struggles, some of which are self inflicted. Cost themselves a flag last year in D3 (6th grade of the VAFA) when a couple of their better players got themselves suspended in the 2nd semi (or prelim?) and they subsequently lost a tight GF. Happy to be corrected but think they might have gone into recess for a year and then came back initially as 3rds only club so good on them for looking at options to remain viable. Respite from travel and the opportunity to pay players might draw a few back but like most clubs in that part of the world they have suffered through an oversupply of clubs in an area with a vastly changing demographic. 3 clubs based in the small suburb of Doveton all doing it tough. Would a merge with Doveton Eagles work? From memory (and again happy to be corrected) they started as the same club way back and then split of in different directions.
Yep Doveton area is struggling with lots of immigrants now like a lot of clubs out here i think they should merge with the eagles with Hallam doves eagles and e/hils all close together and most families that are from around there over the years that kept these clubs going have moved further out and no St. John’s and Doveton eagles were never the same club eagles started as St. John’s oc then Doveton amateurs and then became the eagles St John’s restarted later again and they actually played each other in the amateurs one of the biggest blues iv ever seen that day they actually hated each other and no one from either club had anything to do with the other club completely separate clubs
How much these guys getting?
Yep - the locals were up and about in Decco's last game - they were always going to be fired up. If they are able to keep this group together, they will not be in Div 4 for long.
