Ch9 AFL Division 5 - 2015

[Lightning McQueen]

Why did the CLG guy applaud the goal?

[Footy Chick]

cos he's a good sport?

Remember those?

[scottroo]

Well done to para hills, too good for us on the day. Our lads threw everything we had at you but it wasn't good enough.

Our boys were shattered with the result, as expected.

I'm standing down as footy director at CLGFC, would of been great to go out with dual flags, but it wasn't to be

How much do we think the 2 clubs playing in the grand final would have spent on players and coaches this year?

Im going to go with $100k for CLG and $70k for PH?

I obviously have no idea, but that would be lunacy if you're even in the ballpark. On the last blind survey there was one club in the League that got anywhere close to those figures. With the new salary cap I'm sure the League will be watching them like a Hawk

Just do the sums, if you're paying $100,000 for the year it means you're paying each person who plays $240 per week, or half the players in the team $500 per week. No one would be, or could afford to do that (short of aforementioned Hawks)

Welcome to the loony bin jo

[scottroo]

Looks like we are screwed with the salary cap coming in next season

[wonder_kid]

well 15k of that 100k was just for dent

[scottroo]

honestly, where do you think we get a spare 100k from?

Sold an extra 50,000 stubbies of pale ale?

[wonder_kid]

was sarcasm mate surely no div 4 club can afford 100k

[wonder_kid]

id hope most clubs would spend between 30k-40k for coach and players in div 4 am I being gullible for thinking that

This should be in the best/worst jokes thread

[morell]

Not really.

Coach - $10k
Assistant - $2k
3x star players on $300/game - $16k
8x good-uns on $200/game - $28k
10x role players on $50/game - $9k
Awards and incentives - $15k
B Grade Coach - $3k

That's over $80k ...

[Brodlach]

First of all would anyone pay their B grade coach $3000?

[morell]

Quite a few I would imagine, especially if they double up and do some work in the A's. Ours got $750 to cover petrol and phone calls.

so far off its not funny mate...

[Q.]

There's no way any club in D5 has 21 paid players.

[morell]

Hmmmmmmm....I hope we're not going to go down the same "oh no, that doesn't count as a payment" palaver like very other single time this has been discussed. Also need to be clear around what constitutes a total football budget, in regards to "spend on football" and player payments/incentives.

Why cant we just be adults, get it out in the open and be cool. I will never understand why people get so defensive about this. Would save so much stress and angst.

I'll start.

We "paid" about 5 players this year.

One got about between $100-$150, but had to do much more than just play.
One was moved from interstate, we helped out with some travel costs and job
3x we paid their subs, gave them some shorts and socks. Plus another job.

[scottroo]

the question was how much was spent on players and coaches, not total football budget on trainers, etc etc
