As someone said earlier far more players transferring into the SAAFL than out so whats the issue??
Maybe if you got more than Mum and Dad along to watch the amateur hour you wouldnt be so jealous of what the country clubs are offering. Why dont you start charging a gate fee and you to might be able to afford the big dollars the country clubs can

The current situation is the CFL caved in to 2 leagues on the PROMISED salary cap level this year, but PROMISED the salary cap would be reduced next year. They have now broken that written PROMISE for the second time.
The SAAFL have been trying to get the CFL change the APPS rules to allow bona fide city/country transfers worth zero points since I have been involved with it but the country leagues don't want a bar of it.

Talk about tanties

And who willll that benefit, the saafl of course so you can get all the lads moving to the city for nothing. Good on the country clubs for telling them to stick it. Again it would only work one way. As I said, why don't you lift your standards instead of dragging the well run country comps down to your level.

I believe it was also for teachers/police officers etc posted to the country would be worth 0 points to their new country club.

How are they going to investigate Gawler Centrals when all involved are jumping ship and if found guilty do the new committee cop all the penalties also see Barossa Districts so called coach has retired. If the CFB are serious about the salary cap that's one big loop hole they need to fix ASAP.

They sure do - No sign on fees ,1 marquee player per team, total payments $3500 plus $600 incentives, so if he was there marquee player he can be paid $1000 per game.

Seems impossible to believe in 2017 that CPI has gone backwards. I would have thought a slight increase each year would be the norm. Players who have been given a talent and not being able to benefit from it. The last report I heard was that the Vic Country AFL have set salary caps at a much higher level.
So it probably fair to say that the inclusion of teams into the SAAFL is a sign that the APPS and Salary Cap are working well for them at the expense of all other country football teams but if their blue chip players start leaving it may have the reverse effect.

CFL just waiting for the 31 October submissions to see if they self-report.
