One team per division 2011/12 season

When did West move to Port Adelaide? Was it less than 20 years ago and saw an opportunity in a new area?
Where was Woodville 20 years? Did they exist or was there just Cheltenham BC running Social teams from St Clair?
We certainly know that there was no Magic at that time, but the North west seems cluttered now.

Looking at population in each area is one thing, but surely a better indication would be the number of schools and how many attendees these have.
After all, I can't see too many recruits coming from the local retirement village, or the nearby nursing home.

Mention is made of the close SANFL proximity of Port Adelaide and WWT, but don't forget where WWT originated from (2 clubs with a close proximity to each other). The merger worked for WWT resulting in a competitive club and a premiership, bit Port Magpies have suffered for quite awhile before having some better results this year. They also rely strongly on their country recruiting "zones" --there goes that word again!

There's already a thread on this.

The question to answer is whether Div 1 and Div 2 is a District competition where teams represent an area (zone) of Adelaide, or whether Div 1 and Div 2 is a team based competition.
