Do we outsource it to our u19s who can play the second gf in 2 weeks?

Do div 1 bring up some u19s (I think 9 of them played in prems throughout the season, plus heaps in div 1) after their gf?

Does that mean we get the guys who drop out of div 1. But then do div 4 players lose their @@@@ that they lost their spot after playing 15 games to an u19s who hasn't played a game. Huge juggling spot, just would love to roll UTS.

Penno into prems gf over north shore. Jake Gunstone was really happy about it. Imagine sledging a side when down by 40 at 3/4 time that your prems team (which you have never played in) is going well.

Saviour are you able to clarify how McParland and Dylan Addison were able to play Div 1? Noticed them both on the team sheet online. Says McParland has played 9 Prems games which would over qualify him given Prems are out. Addison 2 x Div 1 games and 3 x Prems games which again doesn't meet qualifications..???

6.9 Subject to By-laws 6.10, 6.11, 6.12 and 6.13:

away matches in any higher men’s division(s) (including Sydney Uni NEAFL), shall not be
eligible to play final matches in a lower division:

Finals matches don't count so McParland is only on 8 home and away.

Sydney Swans and GWS Giants ‘Top Up’ players and Under Age Representative Players (Amended

6.16 Sydney Swans and GWS Giants NEAFL ‘Top Up’, NSW State Academy Series, U18 Allies &
U16 National Championship matches will count towards finals eligibility for the players AFL
Sydney club.
6.17 Under these By-Laws the ‘player’ is only permitted to play in AFL Sydney Premier Division,
Division One or Under 19 Division One Finals.

Dyl Addo played a fair bit in the neafl as a gws top up player and they count as div 1 games (lol).

[Westy]

Yep fair call on McParland. Top up rule... WOW

[saviour01]

I know. It's pretty bad but I guess you just play by the rules.

[5yearplan]

Addison should not be playing div 1. Exemptions and by laws he had a special exemption to play on gws list.

All for him coming to play prems but div 1 after prems out is a bit rich.

You would think the league and even clubs would acknowledge him playing div 1 with those concessions isn't quite right.

Why hasn't UTS Div 4 been promoted to Div 3 after their last few years? Not being a smartarse, I'm just pretty new to the comp and curious.
