Lazy, Very Very Lazy
With the rumoured return of the AFL Reserves I think it's a great idea and never fully understood why it was halted in the first place.
The unevenness of the current setup for the AFL non Victorian sides was huge and was unfair for them to be playing in State competitions with sides that were in place only to help themselves and not their AFL counterparts.
I also on the other hand feel for clubs that may fall by the wayside without the backing of their AFL suitors and we could see some of the State Leagues collapse if the AFL and their clubs pull out of the State Leagues altogether.
My main concerns are WAFL and Peel, NEAFL losing four sides from eleven and the VFL. How can the VFA (VFL) survive if the only clubs left are Williamstown, Werribee, Coburg, Frankston, Zebras and maybe the Mustangs, Bullants and Scorpians return to their true selves.
Do they start with an eight team comp or do the AFL Victoria look at promoting some of the suburban clubs to a newly formed VFL?
Please do not call the AFL Reserves, AFL Development League.
So far if the Reserves comes back you would have. (opinion)
