    I have been advised by North Shore that they've rescheduled in anticipation of Mortgage Choice Oval being closed overnight.
    Div 2 & Under 19s Div 1 are postponed. Campbelltown have forfeited Under 19s Div 2. Premier Division has been moved to Blacktown.

    A forfeit prior to a postponement in 19's Div 2. Don't you hate that.

    Credit to Campbelltown they could have taken a punt on the game being postponed and held off on the forfeit

    That is a pity. Their coach Rob is doing a really good job of keeping that team together. They have some really good players too. I hope it is just a one week thing.

    Even without an apocalyptic weather forecast, it was always going to be a hard ask to get enough Under 19s to put their hand up to go from Campbelltown to Gore Hill for an 8:30am game.

    Been there done that last week - when you deal with adults those times are insane however we all have to do the best we can. I put a model forward this year to some of the powers that would have supported a traditional format of seniors ressies etc across 2 divs plus a third div and whilst they saw merit that also indicated that the present divs structure have a few more years to run. I was a big fan of it when it was bought in because it was needed and needed desperately. Its run its race though afaic. If a workable model that allows the seniors ressies 19'd to be kept together every weekend without a return to a system that allows clubs to manipulate the system to their success them lets go. Unfortunately allowing clubs to have firsts through to 6ths makes that pretty hard to come up with workable models. That also was not a snipe at the Students cause keeping that many people on the same page is no mean feat - I wish I could do the same.

    Definitely. They only had 16 at home last weekend so would have been tough. Where are all these juniors going? Seems like lots of clubs are struggling. Parra from first to last and a few forfeits. Sutho gone, moorebank/wests merge and then struggle for numbers most weeks.

    What can you do to get them to a senior club then keep them there?

    Manly forfeited 19/1's last week and only have 15 listed so far for tomorrow

    Here is my 2 cents. Under 15s, 17s, 19s football in Sydney still suffers from a lack of oversight and organisation. This years under 19s div 1 is being dominated by North Shore who have allegedly done the following:

    1. Developed an unhealthy relationship with the swans academy which may be impacting the flow of players to them
    2. Infiltrated St Ives further such that St Ives now takes out of town swans academy players sent by North Shore into the 15s and 17s with the agreement that they go to North Shore 19s
    3. North Shore is contacting Forrest players (and others) in the Under 15s/17s inviting them to play with North Shore

    I don't blame North Shore, I blame the NSW AFL who know that clubs will get resourced to chase talent, and yet do nothing when the registrations and transfers come in. The establishment of player lists in these under age groups should be carefully monitored to create an even competition. Why? Because it is in the best interests of the players.

    North Shore under 19s have been winning by big margins this year. One North Shore parent commented that they have not had a single decent quarter of competition yet. I think Nth Shore are resting players now, and going easy. I think that makes bad footballers not good footballers. Not only that, the same North Shore parents lamented that the chances of their sons getting a game in prems this years was next to none. They referred to the log jam of talent North Shore has. Contrast that with Manly who have two regular prems players aged 16 (Sam Wicks) and 17 (Jarrod Osborne), and the week before last blooded another 16 year old (Evan Kaporis). There are only 2 other 16 year olds in Prems neither of which are at North Shore.

    The Manly under 19s team is struggling partly because it has been out recruited by North Shore. Good on North Shore. In addition the relationship Manly has with the Giants, no doubt doesn't help with the swans.

    However it should be the responsibility of the AFLNSW to be aware when clubs are out recruiting and do something to step in to ensure the best competition for junior players. God knows they should know by now after the debacle that was the Pennant Hills under 17 super side. aa

    Just checked and your info from a NS parent looks to be way off the mark. NS have played at least 9 kids from their U19s in their premier division team this year. That's a very high number at the half way point and if I was an U19s player at NS I would be fairly motivated by that. Maybe the parent you spoke to is a little one eyed.......
