[FWIW]

FWIW - article on VAFA web suggesting that Premier to Premier C could have a 2 week bye in July next year?
I can see a lot of players taking off mid-year knowing if they leave before Queens Birthday they can have a 6 week Contiki tour and only miss 3 weeks. Good luck coaches trying to organise training over those 2 weeks as well......Thoughts?

Makes negotiating a holiday with the missus a lot easy! And my old crippled corpse could do with the extra week off!

Overheard a ripper on the Weekend from (claiming to be)another league club rep.Re: the extended bye.Offer to potential recruit/s was transfer over to us for 4 games prior to transfer cut off date,then if you like it(games and cash)stay if not transfer back after extended bye.Um !!! that would make it July, transfers cease 30 June don"t they ? was the response.Makes me think if it was a spur of the moment, lightly thought suggestion , or has the cut off date for transfer been extended/propossed,and guys who don"t want the break are eligible to play in other comps.

Bit like old times if correct.

Looks like D1-4 will get a lot of the elite umpires that week like it used to be.
