Some of these clubs have the same players year in and year out because there is no age restrictions crap therefore good loyal players aren't getting cut because of age .Therefore there is a nice club atmosphere with good 'club men ' present.

Zpl is a closely fought out comp with all teams in with a chance. They would the leave all the bottom Newfm teams for dead. Nbn is a clear first division. But people won't be calling Newfm 2nd division football for much longer. It's a joke.

Scrap The criteria crap seriously. All that needs to be up to standard is the football pitch. Who gives a shit about anything else! fences? who cares. seating? take a blanket sit on the ground ffs! dressing shed standards? who cares! Not a bunch of princesses.
My thoughts as well. I think there should be decent dressing sheds at senior grounds but not at the expense of club being prevented from promotion

I never watch newfm cause the cost to enter is stupid. zpl offers a similar standard.

Hats off to the volunteers who do spend a lot of time helping their clubs. Do Newfm clubs get players to volunteer their time as well?
