Yep, after me banging on about running a top 4(and playing everyone once), I tend to agree, Top8, finals weeks don’t change, everyone gets to their 12 games over 3 weeks, 4 games to qualify. As Sam Kekovich says, “you know it makes sense”, because I can tell you, everything that the executive has thrown up certainly doesn’t.
That looks like the best way forward. You’d think people with full time jobs could sort this out. I just can’t understand how they are happy with a team playing an extra game than everyone else. How does that work if a Nagambie player wins the league medal by a vote or two? Or position change on the ladder due to % Football and netball right through.
Yeah one team playing more is very odd I'd understand more if it was a few teams. Nightmare scenario if the medal is decided by that extra game, potential to happen in A Grade, Nagambie is 1 game inside the 6 currently and isn't a great deal of % above the 2 behind them
Why play the game? Would look better with every team playing 13 bar one, and give the other team (ardy) the 4 points. I’m sure ardy would rather that.
You got your lakers hat on or Common sense hat?
In fairness Hank it is not a one size fits all type scenario . There are varying number of clubs in the different leagues and a large amount of differing fixturing structures within leagues . Eg . Split rounds / clubs playing twice before playing sides once . Adding to that some leagues have cancelled matches during lockdowns to allow clubs social function calendars to remain unchanged others have just suspended rounds . Additionally some leagues are looking to get finished ASAP , others are waiting to start finals to try and cash in on crowd sizes being increased . Some have clubs in both NSW and Vic which has presented opportunity as well as challenges .Neighbouring league making a smart, informed decision that has been met with positive feedback.View attachment 1194713
Yep don’t envy the league decision makers, but just feel more dialogue was needed early on between all clubs to make decisions on the best way forward, then a zoom meeting with club concerns wouldn’t have been needed last night. As much as we are in an ever changing environment, we have had time on our side this time round, for qualification rules to still not be decided upon (I believe there will be a decision today) is not good enough IMO
Surely finals qualification should be on a case by case basis , rather than hard and fast rule due to the varying scenariosYep don’t envy the league decision makers, but just feel more dialogue was needed early on between all clubs to make decisions on the best way forward, then a zoom meeting with club concerns wouldn’t have been needed last night.

Agree submissions should be allowed, rules still need to change.
What’s the system in the GV mate? I think they have to play 3 reserves games to be able to play?
Once you have played 2 or more senior games, you must have played atleast 6 reserves, so to be honest probably to severe the other way in my opinion.
Is that GV or KD mate?
KD Bylaws
Beautiful, so it was changed at some point then, a) never used to be in there
