I need some help with a big decision I need to make for next year.

I am trying to decide whether to play footy next year, or to take a year off.

I want to play seniors with PiesPremiers for a lower division inner suburban club, so I don't have to train often and I could be in the midfield with Dan.

The thing is, they play Saturday arvo's, which is when the majority of Hawthorn matches are. I am becoming a Hawthorn and Box Hill member next year, so I will miss one match a week.

I also have had knee and calf problems this year, and my right knee is still feeling the effects of straining a ligament twice. At the moment I feel pain if I try and kick the ball too far, and my running is no where near what it used to be.

I want to do a pre-season and get really fit though, even if I don't play footy. I need to strengthen the knee and I have put on a little bit of weight because I have done basically no excercise since I did my knee last.

So basically it's the joy of playing footy versus the joy of watching Hawthorn/Box Hill and injury.

Please help me out... :( :confused:

Would you be playing in the juniors, or under 19s or seniors? If you play for a division 1 club in the juniors, or under 19s or seniors and reserves, I may be their to watch. That is enough reason for you to play next year.:rolleyes:

Forgot to mention I'm kinda involved with Hawthorn. So I don't exactly know if they would be too impressed if I missed most of their games...

I made a pretty easy choice to give footy (playing) the arse when I moved back from Sydney.

Best move I made I reckon..... I now have to much on between watching footy and taekwondo.

I choose the pies over playing..... Unless you are after a career in footy, Then that changes things.

It disappoints me Brett that your unsure of what you want to do. But at the same time, i understand, with commitments to hawthorn etc.
Im playing, and i will probably miss 5 or 6 games a year. (Collingwood games)
This is the reason i stopped playing last year, also with a bad knee, i needed time off anyway.
I will miss going to the footy, but my knee is pretty ordinary now, i dont know how much longer i will have the opportunity to play.
SO IM PLAYING!
Look out opposition midfielders! :D

Yes Dan, I am unsure... :(

Oh, and if anyone can recommend a really crap inner-suburban senior team that we could play for, please go ahead.*
