I think it's 1 up, 1 down, unless there is another volunteer to go down (Merewether volunteering last year facilitated R/T and Belmont going up). By Bellbird withdrawing I think they may be made to re-enter in ZL3, should they re-apply.

Now depending on your club you may have different views on the following......

Personally, I think with Tenambit only winning, at present 1 game (hurts to write this) all season and trailing Merewether significantly - they should go down. The fact that another team didn't compete seems irrelevant to me. Perhaps, after 2 years of wooden spoon, it might actually be better for the kids there to compete at a lower level and win some games, get some confidence. Sure it's somewhat of a free-fall but it may be required and best for them. Maybe the usual Tenambit poster/s can offer an opinion... I'm in no way having a dig and am just offering a neutral opinion, actually doesn't faze me one bit which division they are in for 2014...

I'm actually a fan of more movement between the divisions, believing it is too difficult to gain promotion as their always seems to be one team having a gun year. Likewise, you can be quite bad and stay because in all likelihood, some other club will be bloody awful each year.

I'd actually like to see major and minor premiers replacing the bottom 2 in the above division. Some might say the above is reflective of my own clubs situation but its not, it's my honest opinion regardless of this.

If you look through the divisions it's hard to argue with the fact that most divisions have 2 teams deserving promotion and 2 that are performing fairly ordinarily.

Interested in anyone's thoughts.....
