Agree Mores.... has the EDFL also accepted a brown paper bag in order for this to be passed? It actually flies in the face of clubs trying to develop from within.... let's drop the points per week to 38?No play no point reduction

That’s crap. AFL vic make the rules on point deductions so I’ll wait for them to make a statement. I hope the don’t reduce points for any player recruited for 2020. Players from 2019 should get a reduction but not 2020 recruits.Player Points for 2021 will reduce by 1 point for all players who were registered with their club as at 30 June 2020 and stay at that Club for season 2021
It sounds pretty crook tbh.That’s crap. AFL vic make the rules on point deductions so I’ll wait for them to make a statement. I hope the don’t reduce points for any player recruited for 2020. Players from 2019 should get a reduction but not 2020 recruits.
Apology Div 2 = $70,000Did they also confirm player points would reduce for registered players this season? Eg a 5 pointer in 2019 would be a 3 pointer in 2021 if at same club
You would think a lot of clubs won’t be happy about this.That’s crap. AFL vic make the rules on point deductions so I’ll wait for them to make a statement. I hope the don’t reduce points for any player recruited for 2020. Players from 2019 should get a reduction but not 2020 recruits.

When ek is throwing 45k plus with sign ons and match payments, would any of these young kids stay at there club. Hillside just don’t have the money to compete with ek.Pretty clear that the club is in turmoil. Their best players have gone to a rival club , yes they did recruit a couple of handy types for 2020 but the main one will not be there as he won't be offered anywhere near the figure agreed too for 2020...

No one has the money to compete Sticks it is farcical what is happening but like in Deer Parks case you can't buy respectWhen ek is throwing 45k plus with sign ons and match payments, would any of these young kids stay at there club. Hillside just don’t have the money to compete with ek.
Moonee valley council are charging only 50% for the next 3 years. That will help clubsEverybody seems to be taking a haircut at the moment. I do hope that councils and the EDFL join the chorus and lower council fees and affiliation fees. Clubs in turn should also lower fees to participants. I know, I know, I live in an idealistic world. ....maybe not...
Who did EK pay $45k plus sign on too?When ek is throwing 45k plus with sign ons and match payments, would any of these young kids stay at there club. Hillside just don’t have the money to compete with ek.
Surely it wasn’t referring to 1 player receiving $45k?Who did EK pay $45k plus sign on too?
Big Sticks - c'mon mate - specifics pleaseSurely it wasn’t referring to 1 player receiving $45k?
More likely numerous players totally $45k
Its pretty sad what EK are doing to this comp. They can deny it as much as they want but surely they will get caught out. What would happen if a player spoke with details on how they are being paid?Big Sticks - c'mon mate - specifics please
What do you mean sad ? As a neutral observer, i think they have done a fantastic job trying to recruit players to improve their list. This can only help the standard of football in this grade and has prompted other clubs like APW, TULLA & West Meadows to see who can land the biggest recruit. I think the negative may be half way through the season when certain players are not picked, it may start a bit of infighting. How the players land at these clubs is another discussion, but in end, it is the players decision to go to a club and determine if what is being offered in genuine ! You cannot blame clubs for wanting to improve, but i can see the point of trying to fit all the players under the salary cap & points system may be challenging. Even the 3 big names coming out of Hillside ( Miccalef, Raynor & Colletta) are easy to coach against and can minimize their impact. Who knows, this may actually make Hillside stronger as other players may now have an opportunity to develop and have an impact. It is not always doom and gloom unless you want it to be !!Its pretty sad what EK are doing to this comp. They can deny it as much as they want but surely they will get caught out.

Agree that they have strengthened the comp, but don't think tulla apw and westy have done anything in the same manner ek have. Time will tell regarding if they get away with it or not. Sharks will be bottom 2 with those 3 players gone
You should change your handle to Biggest ... go away muppet what Cheat Keilor are doing is beyond comprehension...What do you mean sad ?

Blah,Blah,Blah- cheat this, cheat that.if you have evidence of clubs cheating including your own, present it to the edfl so that they can investigate. Otherwise, go and have a drink with your mates when that becomes available and keep complaining to them ! As the old saying goes - you are only guilty if you are caught- show us the evidence / deal in facts not rubbish - cheers !You should change your handle to Biggest ... go away muppet what Cheat Keilor are doing is beyond comprehension...

What an ignorant response. You blokes carry on like you're Tony Mokbel and believe you will never get caught, well that fat s**t isn't doing to well is he.Blah,Blah,Blah- cheat this, cheat that.if you have evidence of clubs cheating including your own, present it to the edfl so that they can investigate.

You blokes ?? Definition of ignorance is lack of knowledge and information. Well I talk to a lot of current and ex players, coaches, committee person especially major sponsors who sponsor about 6 or 7 clubs across the edfl. The deals that have been made are incredible including your club - but no one does anything about it- they are all chasing some form of success or survival. Unless someone actually does something about it- it will continue for ever. A good solution may be to remove the salary cap altogether then at least you know what everyone’s goals are then and what division they should be in. Leave the egos at the door and show me the money!!What an ignorant response.

I’ve been trying to keep busing but I’m back folks for a bit as apparently you all have been missing me. Well some prefer me to stay away.Pretty clear that the club is in turmoil.
