After being away for a couple of days, this thread delivered all that I expected. Well and truly.
Very reliable source has stated this is categorically untrue, so carry on!morell wrote:Little birdy told me that the rumour is - Round 5, May 6, "Tanti" played under Todd Lamont's name, against Salisbury West., a game which TOS won by 33 points and "Tanti" kicked 2 goals.
Lamont played off HBF all year but also hardly played until July this year. The clearance was lodged 1st May but approved 11th May - only leaves one game possible where clearance hadn't gone through yet...
Allegedly.

Wouldn't be the first time.
And even last time it did happen, they still won a flag.

Turns out you were lukewarm on this one. This was just released:
Hi all. The League’s position towards on field behaviour is well documented.
Recently and following a review of tribunal records and as the season was drawing to an end, it was determined that 3 clubs were required to deposit a bond to remain eligible to compete in whatever division they were graded due to a disturbing level of tribunal activity.
This was deemed to be the most conciliatory course of action to offer some confidence to the league and opposition clubs that a player, players or club would not breach any ongoing sanction and avoid expulsion from the competition which is considered a last resort.
One of those clubs was the Salisbury West Football Club. Last Sunday a player from the SWFC Under 18Y team was reported for striking and subsequently suspended for 3 matches. The SWFC have been reported 5 times for a total of 35 matches this season.
The League offered the SWFC the opportunity to submit another deposit in lieu of the one forfeited so their U18 team may compete this Sunday in the U18Y Preliminary Final. The SWFC have voluntarily determined that they will not submit a bond and in turn forfeit the match allowing the Portland U18Y team rite of passage to the U18 Grand Final.
The League’s view on this is if any club that is required to submit a financial surety to generate some confidence that they might conduct themselves as expected and does not, validates the very concept of a bond and that is if the given club is not willing to risk a further loss of funds, why would the League risk it either.
The Salisbury West Football Club’s affiliation for season 2018 is subsequently under review.

To the brahma lodge football club, today just wasnt our day. We won 5 of the 8 quarters we played this final series but find ourselves with no more football.
Based on today performance i am not sure Ingle Farm have the cattle to match elizabeth. Both relegated sides will go back to division 5.
Good luck to all involved and i look forward to what 2018 has to offer

We let ourselves down in the last quarter and it cost us the game. But it's funny how their supporters started abusing our players with centrelink remarks once they hit the front, just shows how up themselves they are. But I guess we will see what happens.
Let me guess Elizabeth supporters never trotted out the 'Private School Boy' routine.....one day I will wrote:All credit goes to pulteney on Saturday.

Elizabeth has very high unemployment
