I know it's a minimum by why only 40? Surely with even our dip in activity we should be able to scrape by with 60.

Well we really want people who are at least here from time to time, we don't want to "scrape" by, we want to only have active players so we reduce the amount of forfeits.

I think forfeits are an extension of an on-going season. When teams start to lose a lot and don't do as well as planned they tend to not want to continue. It's all fine and dandy being 0-0 and going into the season. Players' desire to show up and compete is equalized and all around high. Then a few weeks later when your team is 0-8 it gets harder and harder to field a team of six. "What's the point of playing anymore" is the unsaid mentality that gets adopted from the lower tier teams. It's not fun to come to matches to always lose. Soccer is meant to be fun and if it's not fun then what's the incentive to show up?

I think with Season 7 there needs to be continual incentive for teams to stick it out to the end even if they are 0-8. There are likely better ideas out there, but maybe have the season be used as a seeding for a tournament where all 6 teams get in at the end? Then the 6th seed still has a chance to win the championship and still has a reason to continue playing. Every match counts. With a draft season and 6 newly formed teams, having the season as a time to practice / mesh / get chemistry may not be such a bad idea. I don't entirely like the idea of "If you play you get a trophy" type of mentality but I think it may help reduce the amount of forfeits that seem to accumulate towards the end of the season.

Just food for thought.
