The Foster Mirror posted the following on their Facebook page today:

"AFL Gippsland has received six notices of appeal relating to Ellinbank and District Football League’s response to transfer applications from Alberton Football Netball League clubs.

"All six member clubs of the AFNL submitted appeals against the EDFL’s decision to turn down the individual requests to join the league for season 2020 and the AFL Gippsland Region Commission now has until June 3 to provide a ruling.

"The Commission will meet with AFL Victoria representatives to discuss the situation and appeal hearing process.

"Given its role in the appeal process, AFL Gippsland will not offer any further comment on this matter until its conclusion."

Having a WGFNC Division 2 is still clearly the best option available and AFLG have to realise that it will have the least impact on the football landscape in Gippsland.

By adding the six AFNL clubs to the WGFNC, you will have 18 teams in a competition with a 10-8 split. The clubs will have the chance to 'find their level' over a 2-3 year period and by then, they will be part of a competition where there is better competitive balance. It will alleviate the disruption to other competitions and clubs like Hill End, Longwarry and Neerim-Neerim South won't have the prospect of long trips to places like Toora, Tarwin and Foster.
