It is an unfair advantage if both teams no longer have an AFL team active yet one can chose from their full list whilst the other is restricted to qualified players only. There is no reason in allowing Sewell, McEvoy, Schoenmakers, Rioli (I know he won't play, but he's allowed) to play if the AFL team are eliminated. Again, it's a moot point if Hawthorn win their game.
Their full list minus their best 22 players.
Don't see the big deal personally, they qualification rule is only put in so AFL teams that aren't in the finals can't just play their best players. Whether Hawthorn win or lose Saturday they are not deliberately strengthening their VFL team at the expense of their AFL team (although that's not really your point).
We've got a good enough team to win regardless of what Box Hill team is sent out against us. Looking forward to Sunday.
