Agreed on both. I do think there is value in having a straight relegation for last in Prem, though. It gives them incentive to get it done in the season, rather than resting and loading up for a short "Promotion / Relegation" style playoff. Makes for better late season battles.
As for Div 2 & 1, both would be better served by a single, 10 team group in Div 2.
I think I'm in the same boat as far as motivation, but I still have the competitive fires that personally would be better stoked in Div. 1. I.e: Pakenham Cup. Would like to be able to play a competitive season, then gear up for a legitimate Cup run, like the Rangers. The Pak is still the most enjoyable, and hard fought series out here, no matter what format it takes. Way more fun in winning the Pak, and way more satisfying. Given, I only got there (and won it) once, you guys are probably bored of the whole routine...
