I don't see the justification of keeping a few dead clubs alive in a badly run half arsed reserves comp that they could have anyways and did have called the Metro Cup.
Doesn't make sense.

Test cricket goes for 5 days, 6 hours a day minimum, they play for 30 hours in spikes with shorter grass covering and I don't see ovals being ripped to shreds.
Just doesn't happen.
They will sprout a billion excuses, the powers that used to be, NewsFilth, the real reason is $$$$.
As always.
The wear and tear on a ground for a game of cricket is no wear near what it is for a league game mate.

30 hours of cricket over 4 hours of RL.
Dunno. Wouldn't be that far off IMO.
Personally I'm not talking 3 grades anyway. 2 grades as we have. 1st grade and reserves.
20s back to the park. NSW Cup survives. QLD Cup etc. Whatever it's all good.
Maybe age groups like the 80s, Harold Matts 15s, SG Ball 16-17s, Flegg 18-19s, Presidents Cup 20-21s.
I can't work out why that was ever changed??? Seemed to work.

Harold matts is now 16's
Sg ball is 17's
And I'm not 100% sure but I think the next level is u/20's.
Hope the league sort out the mess soon. 20's is shit quality footy and in this day an age where people want value for money, $30 to go watch 1 good game of footy and pay overs for food and drinks plus parking just doesn't cut it. I bet more people would go to games (I'm not talking thousands more) if there was better quality games before first grade.
