Re: HFL Division 1 (Central)

Blackwood win by 4 points. 7 points in the last quarter. David Hankin missed after the siren to win the game. Bad kicking is bad football.

Re: COVID-19 (Country)

Country leagues won't go ahead if the salary cap is reduced to $0. Many clubs simply won't have enough players. The big towns with populations will be fine, the smaller towns will most certainly struggle.
Will also struggle to attract umpires if salary cap is reduced as there will be a push for all expenses, umpires, association fees etc to be reduced by the same %.

You're not just a pretty avatar mate, you've gotta feel for those that run the league's, there will be clubs wanting to go ahead, some not, some fence sitters, they can't please everyone.

And this is exactly why all leagues should be cancelled and the decision has to come from those that run football in this state for the best interests of football in this state.
You cant have the haves feasting on the have nots.
There is talk of 3 YP clubs already out, a couple NE clubs out, these are the smaller clubs within their leagues. Comps simply cant be run with some in and some out.
The easiest decision is scrap it all

Taking the easy decision is such a cop out. Football needs to be winner and the goal has to be to keep the game alive in whatever format it is. It will be so much in 2021 if there hasn't been football played for over 12 months. You will lose more players, sponsors, volunteers, clubs and communities!

Re: ASCA

They are still yet to post their full scores from the weekend, not have they done either of their captains reports. Absolutely useless.

Give them a break , there are plenty of other clubs who have not having done a captains report or entered scores yet.

Odds are they will cause at least one upset during the year. Wouldn't want to be the club its against!!

Additionally, hopefully we can all learn as an association from this years events and not allow the requesting to drop sections/refusing to play in a higher sections.

Re: 2024 Adelaide Footy League - Division 7

Both to be honest. Some players know they have worth - or at least discover it when a club contacts and then seem to test the waters around the place.. but clubs are straight onto potential recruits.

Our players this year, I was looking forward to a break at the end of footy season - less than a week after the GF players getting texts from other clubs about next year, so had no choice but to get back to work and lock them away.

Yeah, my mate did say that a few clubs had been messaging his lad straight after the H&A season, and a few more since then, and a couple wanting to "catch up"

Social media makes it a hell of a lot worse as well with players feels a great sense of worth if they see themselves on a post saying they're the big club recruit. It puts alot of pressure on the volunteers responsible for keeping players at their own club.

Perhaps a transfer fee could also be a part of a cost paid to clubs who lose a player. If club X has to stump up $500 to sign a player from club Y you wouldn't have as many moving or clubs be willing to raid others.
