Deluca wont play much hes with box hill cant see how there going to juggle the points and fit them all in ??
40 points in the GF. McLean has left and he was 4 points, so 36.
According to FB they’ve picked up Sam McLarty (playing VFL), Lucas Westwood (playing VFL), Weller, De Luca (playing VFL) and Clarke.
Weller and Clarke put them on 48 points so there’ll be shuffling, injuries etc, particularly if any of the VFL players play. Assume they’re not expecting that to happen much.

A couple of points overlooked.
They will pick up 7 points from guys dropping a point from the Grand Final, aside from the loss of McLean.
De Luca (6) & McLarty (1) will rarely been seen if at all.
Rowe, Weller & Clarke will be 18, with Phelan 4.
Leaves 25 points for 18 players.
Westwood will be 1 point.
Beverley Hills are a very strong junior club & produce a lot of talented footballers.
This point is often overlooked as they are not in the EFL.
They were always going to be aggressive recruiters coming up and add another interesting dimension to Premier.
Not just making up numbers.

Was on St Kilda’s senior list for 2019 & played an AFL game during the year. Can’t see how they get a 1 point reduction.

I see Rennie Gilchrist has left Balwyn for Caulfield Grammarians in the VAFA. It is amazing how they continue to pick up very well paid players for nothing. Isn't it simply astounding, there's a bit of Harry Potter about all of this.

Might have something to do with the fact he went to school there and has always said he'd finish his footy with his school mates.

John Peter-Budge's sons play cricket and football at Mitcham and John even plays seniors and vets cricket there also.Is a nice a guy but the old footy injuries make life hard for him when playing cricket at times but still a very capable cricketer.

Who’s this McDonald fella at Vermont? And any truth to Eddy returning to the VAFA?

After hearing for a while it was a return to De La, perhaps a rival may have stepped in pending a job offer.
With all that said Richie if he goes you know they replace as well as any.

it is a tradition going back 100 years. You play for the love not the money.Ammo clubs thru their sponsors can help you find a job. Takes all of the pressure on a club trying to compete with EFL clubs etc. Plus Ammos clubs are not allowed to sell grog during a game, which also puts pressure on club's finances. There are 100 reasons why they should sell grog, but they manage to survive, don't have to endure drunken supporters and they have a pretty vibrant competition.Their 2 up 2 down promotion/relegation system ensures every team has to compete to avoid relegation.
You can’t really throw a blanket over all of the VAFA. The lower divisions are certainly genuine amateurs who play with mates etc. But it’s a different story at the top.
Almost all of the top players in the Amateurs are being paid somehow. Especially those ones you see just appear at a club they have zero connection to. Generally it’ll be via a job with a sponsor or supporter etc. things don’t change much at the top (the top clubs have been there forever) because those clubs have the biggest “networks” that make those things happen.

They do get 1 point credit for every year they play at the local club. If they haven’t played AFL for 5 years they are not considered AFL.

Yeah I didn't look back far enough, I understand the points. But I'm pretty sure it's 3 years, in which Rowe and Weller will be 6. 16 points between 3 (White).

Smart way of doing business. Instead of the club trying to find 250K each year, they have great sponsors who can look after them.
