Going to be a long year for some teams when they make top 8 because enough of the other clubs teams did well.
Div 2 if you have the time? Looking at the tables Southy and Charlestown look like making B but the last 2 could be a lottery
I am not sure that is correct. This is what I have for 2024.

I get your point but have seen one of those 2 teams a few times this year and how they havent won games let alone draw any surprises me.They play some good football and would still consider them one of the best 8 teams in their age group.It will be interesting to see where they are when the split happens.
Looking at Northerns table it appears that they have their ranking based on how difference and not club points accumulated thus far.
Changes a few teams around if go off points and not goal difference in their table
Yep, the top 8 is pretty settled now I think. Edgeworth are such a weird one - zero points in the 13s and 18s but right at the pointy end in 14s, 15s and 16s. My son's team played them in the 16s recently, and I reckon they are the most well drilled side, with a real plan and structure. Their coach was way over the top in his yelling at players, but he is certainly getting the best out of them.
I'm sure we all wanted to see after, 2 prior years of promotion/relegation, some changes in who goes up and down
Club championship model prevents that though keeps some underseving teams safe, etc...and ends up in greater cannabilisation of those nearly their teams (in some cases they are "there")
Nailed it.
Although this club championship model isnt perfect its better than what we had before and locally, the system is as good as its ever been.
Not sure how the draw goes if they decided to make individual teams go into different comps.
Back in the day Newcaste had 2 youth clubs in Sydney, bit like coasties have now. Not sure if this would be better or not now.

That's the flaw
I am sure there is a mathematical algorithm that could be applied to marry up a good draw with different teams in appropriate divisions and organise grounds...Victoria does it this way I believe, can't see why we couldn't.
Would help a club build something of themselves
