It can be tough. When things don't go your way with regards to injuries and player availability, it tends to snowball and just get worse. With the flu season and covid still floating around, the stacked fixtures list, it's hard to deal with and manage injuries and everything else. Hopefully for them, it's something they can turn around.
We have been in that position before and I think it's better for everyone involved to bite the bullet on thirds and get two fit sides out on the park at least. Nothing worse than expecting 11 players to play two grades every week (or twice a week at the moment!).
Looking at their results, they have been competive in quite a lot of games, despite registering just one win. Although it's always best to get the games played, I don't think them forfeiting third grade does anything to question their commitment or the integrity of the competion.
