Gings: was that the suggestion from Mainland from last year? (1 team per club in Div 1). I know that there will be some upset people if this is the case. Personally I agree with it.
Thats been the 'rule' for the last few years - exceptions come if A) no other club want a slot in the 8 and B) a club is good enough. I agree with it, but see why some clubs need that 2nd slot. Removing rep & FTC coaches from age groups would help reduce the player clustering which happens but will never happen
