Whatever! I still don't think it right.
Melbourne Victory from Victoria, not national therefore should be in grass roots, therefore all Australian Football should be about National Team only. According to your logic.
Like I said Whatever.

Even if said threads go into Australian Football, there is still very much a "us versus them" mentality from both camps. Difference is, when they are in here, the threads don't turn to shit so quickly.

State Leagues are not Nation. Therefore they aren't "Australian" they are NSW or Vic or whatever, and go here. This has been discussed before.
We don't want VPL or NSWPL clogging up the Australian Football forum.

Put it this way, do you think that the discussion in Extra Time should only be about matches that go into Extra Time? Are the State Leagues "Australian Football" or not? For me thats the question. The result (of putting State League issues in Grassroots) perpetuates the them and us mentality. For me GrassRoots = junior football.

You're comparing two different things though. As it stands, the NSWPL and VPL are not a second division to the A-League. There's barely any link between them at all. Hence the difference.

thats my point funky munky if b-league would go in australian football section, then the state leagues of NSWPL and VPL are the second divisions as we stand and they should be in australian football to.
Not grass roots

That would depend on how it was set up, and entirely up to 442. But I would assume it would go into Australian Football.

I understand that. But surely you understand that Grass Roots is also used as a pun. We're not seriously describing the state leagues as such.

but you must understand extra time is used as a pun and fits the bill
Grass roots is degrading name for NSWPL AND VPL clubs and make's people believe that the a-league is the only part of football were there are spectators, which is far from the case.
Grass roots refers to academies, training, children under 16 etc.
You must understand that Funky Munky

Grassroots is just a name, to refer to the section of the forum for discussion about football beneath the A-League.

now this is grass roots, good story for football and as many lebanesse australians has swung to rugby league stories like this are fantastic.
But once again this is a grass roots story.
Woolworths grass roots policy and donations of 3 million dollars to spot in the country stop grants for under 13's year olds.
Dont understand how second tier football is grass roots.

Quote:Soccer wins his heart by Olga Gerloff MERRYLANDS’ Hussein Elrich may be a swimming and athletics champion but it’s soccer that has won his heart. The year 6 Villawood North Public School student was named last year’s Senior Boys Soccer Player of the Year for his exceptional skills. This week’s Junior Sports Star nominee and school captain also plays for the Auburn Junior District Soccer Club. ``I love a variety of sports, but soccer is the one I really want to focus on,’’ Hussein said. The multi-talented sportsman was also crowned Junior Boys Swimming, Athletics and Cross-Country Champion in 2009. ``I’m looking forward to trying out for Westfield Sports High School in May,’’ Hussein said. ``Next year is going to be all about combining sports with my studies.’’ * How you can nominate Athletes aged 10-16 are invited to enter the 2010 Cumberland-Courier Junior Sports Star Awards, sponsored by Rebel Sport. Local clubs, coaches, parents, friends and family members can all nominate youngsters for the awards. Nomination forms can be found in your Parramatta Advertiser or at parramattaadvertiser.com.au. Dedicated athletes from across Sydney and the Central Coast are in the running to win a $2000 cash prize. The winner of the 2010 Parramatta Advertiser Junior Sports Star will receive $1000 and a medal. Our winner will then be in the running for the Cumberland-Courier Medal, the recipient of which will receive another $1000. The 2010 awards will again include the Young Achiever Award, with youngsters vying to win $500. The third categorywill be the Contribution to Sport Medal which is open to adult volunteers who have made a significant contribution to sport behind the scenes. http://parramatta-advertiser.whereilive.com.au/sport/story/soccer-wins-his-heart/
