Matt Filo going to Castlemaine and John Harvey going to Huntly would free up close to 2k a week

Lachie Laing, Gourdis, Payne, Warren and Wild don't really go into M Filo, Harvey and Healey regardless of how good a bookkeeper they have. And if Matt Filo and Harvey were on close to a K, hate to think the weekly worth of Tyle Williams, Dzufer if he plays, Simpson, Josh Filo, Frost, Monfries, Seiben, Lonergan and if any local players get paid.
Even if this lot avg $750 a game, if most play 18 rounds that's roughly 200k

I’m hearing that it will be announced in the coming week which is a bit ridiculous. Should have been done by now. If they were over last season how will they be under this year?

They are yet to be audited. they were informed mid March it will take place late April. No doubt they are breaching the cap, but with six weeks notice to prepare for the investigation (hide the evidence!) it would be unlikely they will find any proof.
They are not serious in catching the cheats if they give a club that much lead time surely!!

I'm hearing that the investigation is well and truly underway with some interviews being conducted through out last week. But you are probably right about the outcome, won't surprise me if nothing comes of it.

Fair enough, could be so. Doubt it will come to much but I guess if nothing else it puts the cheating clubs on notice.
 
In all honesty how many clubs would be under the salary cap? Seems to be the only way to survive for some clubs is to spend above the salary cap.

Well I think after the Wang fiasco, clubs are taking it far more seriously, when there's a lack of locals, clubs are spending more to get sides on the park

In Boga’s situation there is certainly no lack of locals. Their junior numbers are through the roof.
Their colts and reserves team is loaded with talented local kids who could be playing seniors

It looks like they are going for broke this year and throwing everything at a flag with 5 fly ins then a few from Melbourne. I think with the addition of Payne they could be one of the top couple
 
I’ve posted something similar before but if you listen to people at Boga, they have “talked and tried to recruit” plenty of other clubs recruits who live closer by and the money they were chasing isn’t much different even after flights. When you hear what some GR clubs have offered to decent CM players to be told they are already getting that much it makes you wonder how any good side is under.

Paynes got a serious footy resume, he should win the league medal if he plays enough games

GUN midfielder Matthew Payne has become arguably the greatest Grogan Medallist of them all and in the process stamped himself as perhaps the greatest footballer to go around in Queensland.
Payne’s pre-grand final preparations have been boosted by being named Grogan Medal winner for the third time.
He has become only the third player to win three Grogans, joining Jim Davies (Windsor) and Doug Pittard (Taringa and Western Districts) in an elite group.
Whereas Davies won his three Medals with Windsor in 1934, 1935 and 1938 and Pittard with Taringa (1940) and 1946 and 1947 (Western Districts) Payne has now won his with different clubs.
In 2006 he won the Medal playing for Zillmere, in 2011 he was with Southport for his second and now, for his third, he is with Morningside.
That is quite a feat in itself but consider also that he has also won the NEAFL Most Valuable Player award three times, in 2014, 2016 and 2018 with the Aspley Hornets.
But wait, as that famous TV commercial used to say, there’s more.
The now 35-year-old has also added 11 club best and fairest awards – at Zillmere, Southport, Aspley and Rosebud in Victoria.
Such an amazing record has prompted Morningside coach Clint Watts to describe Payne as ‘the best player of our generation up here’.
“He is better than Cameron Ilett (Northern Territory Thunder) who was my favourite player,” said Watts.
“His record is unbelievable – it is AFL Hall of Fame-like.
“But what he has achieved doesn’t surprise me now that I have seen him close-up, how prepared and professional he is to get himself up week by week.”
With Payne on board for a season when Aspley and the NEAFL did not get going, the ball-winning machine gets a shot at only premiership number two on Saturday against Broadbeach in the Grand Final at Yeronga.
His only flag was with Aspley in 2014 when the Hornets beat Sydney.

That's an amazing resume. I doubt he'll be flying down for peanuts.

Going to be a very long year for the Mallee Eagles and Swan Hill looking at yesterday's results

Mallee Eagles looked really young yesterday. Sheahan didn’t play, looks like he has a broken arm. They lost McDonald in the first 10 minutes and McKenzie later on. To not have those mature bodies to help the kids really hurt them. They had a couple of young tall forwards that looked ok and give them a couple of years will be ok.
More concerning for me is they had to forfeit the colts which is not great.

Lalbert have done well to keep a Colts side alive, it must take a lot of effort to get kids out there each year.

How many clubs don't have Colts this year?
