• "Like Mynott, captain Damian Mascitti, key 2020 signing Josh Deluca, the fast-emerging Vince Adduci, Brayden Kilpatrick, Stuart Horner, Lachie Walker and Mason De Wit have recommitted."

Shaping up as a very exciting season - you would imagine there will be "conferences" when you take into a account 22 teams but only 16 rounds - draw is going to me massive factor.

Also good to see so many delisted AFL players commit looking for a 2nd chance.

Conferences don't help at all to make uneven draws fairer. They actually make it worse.

 

[aussie80s]

Have noticed on Hawthorn's Facebook posts that they refer to the seconds team as 'Reserves' rather than Box Hill. Is this a subtle attempt to rebrand Box Hill? They did something similar a few years ago by changing Box Hill's guernsey to a Hawthorn one which was totally unnecessary as the colours were the same and Hawthorn play and train in so many different guernseys that the design was hardly an issue.

 

[stemline]

I'm hoping that it was literally a case of Hawthorn and the Bulldogs leftover listed players needing a practice match. Like the scrimmages last year, but topped up with VFL players.

Box Hill's practice matches will be scheduled through the 2nd half of March in the lead up to the VFL season starting in April.

 

[Walshawk]

Typical that when the structure of the comp was announced at the start of Feb they said the draw would be released by the end of Feb.
And no mention of it since.

 

[HigginsHawk]

Practice matches announced

Vs Collingwood	Holden Centre	Saturday 6 March
Vs Casey Demons	Casey Fields	Saturday 13 March
Vs Essendon	The Hanger	Saturday 20 March
Vs Richmond	Punt Road Oval	Sunday 28 March
Vs Northern Bullants	Box Hill City Oval	Sunday 4 April
Vs Carlton	Box Hill City Oval	Saturday 10 April

It'll probably end up getting released in small blocks like the AFL last year.

Stupid idea to start a semi-National comp in 2021. Should have waiting until COVID is over. Rediculous.

Covid isnt going to be over, didnt you get the heads up, this is the new normal...

Nah. There won’t be any snap lockdowns once the vaccine is fully rolled out. Sport in 2022 will be normal.
