The article is a bit of a disappointment as it seems to me a little misleading. The OAFL is at a point where it is for the most part long past being a "beer league", i mean we all have a cold frosty one after the game but there is a lot more to it than that. Many of the clubs approach the season and each game with professionalism and a lot of preparation, definitely more than just a social get together. Almost every club practices twice weekly and while some of the players are long in the tooth or a little/alot out of shape many of those types of players are playing in the division 2 (B Grade). Of the top six clubs in the OAFL, 3 have full div2 sides the other 3 have players that have played for other div2 sides or combined sides after not making their div1 side. Should the successful recruiting continue you could see 3 or 4 new division 2 teams added to the competition. in addition to under 18's. Brett's suggestion is quite possible within the next decade. The hard work by the AussieX program which promotes and introduces the game to school children has started to translate into U18s showing up at clubs.

That's what I like to hear. Good stuff.
