For **** sake Nardoo!. I thought you had gone for good... But no we are blessed with your stupid comments once again. Yes Kalkee currently have a team that would well and truly compete in the WFL, but is this sustainable? Next year no Schultzes? I cannot remember any calls for Rupanyup to rejoin the WFL when they won three HDFL premierships in a row. Kees have not even done this yet. Kalkee in the WFL would mean a fourth WFL team drawing on players solely from Horsham, how would the other Horsham teams handle this, especially United (could fold altogether)? Would clubs like Stawell and Ararat travell to the windy plains of Kalkee or would they forfiet the seconds on a shitty day? Doubt it would get the vote from any WFL Club. Bottom line is, Kalkee are geograhically most suited to the District League and that is were they should stay. Other teams in both WFL and HDFL need to step up and knock off the current top dogs!Saints were always going to struggle. They had players from 2nds (Combe) and U17's (Knott) filling senior roles for the first time and Watson and Byrne not playing who were both sorely missed. Still Eagles just played better and Saints probaly lucky to get this far as they were the only team to go down to United who were lucky to win a quarter of footy for the year let alone a game.
KALKEE - Yes for the Wimmera League in 2011. WFL officials want this to happen as do VCFL as major leagues should not have a bye. They are a strong club with huge member and supporter base and facilities - but - they dont like it tough and are very cocky and smug and enjoy the easy pickings of being the best in a district league. If they think they are so good then they need to step up. Navarre to their place in HDFL (at last).
All this being said a promotion and relegation system may be the way to go. But how can this be done when we want to treat netball and junior grades as equal status?
