VAFA General Discussion

[bedford]

FWIW new vafa president creating a big footy account and the Herald Sun doing a write up on Div1-Div4 recruits, what other nuggets does 2024 have in store? Bedford as the new mod?

Happy to accept fwiw

Wouldnt suprise me if this lockdown lasts another month thanks to the failures of the state government

Think you’ll find the Cth government lifted the ban on aged care employees in their facilities working more than one site in November 2020.

Funnily enough, they re-introduced that ban Thursday.

State run centres have maintained that ban throughout.
That’s why it’s got back into the Commonwealth run aged care facilities.

This COVID outbreak originated in SA hotel quarantine and has spread due to Cth negligence.

Our state authorities have no responsibility this time but to clean up the Feds’ mess.

What did they do this time, exactly?

How about you take your political rhetoric and put it back where you usually post your stuff. On public toilet walls.

So we’re locking down over 1 case? Cos that’s all the working across multiple sites has led to...

To blame aged care which has only just surfaced and is only 1 case is classic case of trying to pass the buck for issues that are only confined to one state...

Fewer idiots in the first thread, however there is some cross-contamination going on.

Feel free to discuss the impact and ramifications on VAFA and clubs in this thread. Keep the political stuff elsewhere please.

Clubs will have players saying why should we play all our Subs if not playing and that's fair enough , so with that do the VAFA discount fees ?

Clubs will have to pull their money from VAFA's cold dead hands.
The priority is towards umpires. Has always been.

I thought it was junkets to Ireland?

This isn’t age-ing well

 

[Gia77]

Safe to say old mate doesnt realise that any outbreak in any part of the world first started with 1 case.. 1 leads to 2, lead to 4.... you get the picture

Fingers crossed we only miss the 2 games (I'm presuming lockdown will be extended for at least 3 more days) then we get on with playing and talking about local footy!

 

[eddiesmith]

Huh? Still only 1 case at any other site and everyone else has tested negative

The working at multiple sites has made zero difference to this outbreak

 

[Gun Island]

Why are they putting round 9 previews out on social media ?
Why bother .

A truly ridiculous decision.

 

[vafaeye]

A truly ridiculous decision.

WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO DO?
NO VAFA WEEKLY JOBS - NO VOTES TO TALLY/NO TRIBUNAL TO FOLLOW UP/NO UMPS TO PAY/NO VAFA RECORD TO SET UP/NO EVENT PLANNING/NO UMPS ALLOCATION FOR ROUND 9/NO MINUTES TO PUBLISH BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE MEETINGS AND SHARE/NO POLICIES TO GO OVER-DEVELOP??????????????????????????????? THE SLEEPER IN THE PACK.
SHOULD MOSTLY BE ON ANNUAL LEAVE

THE SLEEPY EYE

[runstraight]

maybe they could spend this and next week pushing the fixtures back

 

[eth-dog]

I wonder what they'll do in regards to finals eligibility. It's currently 4 in that grade with no more than 10 above. Thirds have a 14 (now 12) game season. Maybe reduce it to 3 games with no more than 8 above for the threes.

Is this actually a viable option or a pipe dream?

Eligibility for finals per games played will be interesting as well, eth-dog.

Let's all hope for a return to footy on June 19!

No, the VAFA policy was determined pre-season. No make up games

Surely the clubs can change that

I'm not against it at all but you think the VAFA are going to come to the party?

Time to dispute and change the policy is when it originally came out, not when it needs to be implemented.
