What happens with relegation/promotion this year between prem B/C? Two up and two down wouldn’t solve our problem.

UB are already locked into 1st unless Beaumaris can make up 60% and UB lose their last game. At least I think that’s correct.

Rule 18.4(c) field Umpire shall award a Free Kick against an Official who: (C) interferes with the football, an opposition Player, an Umpire or general play You would argue to Quill (runner) interferes with the ball, an opposition player and general play. Only needs to be one for a free kick...

To think this whole situation could have been avoided had University Blues shown the same academic rigor and mathematical prowess calculating their senior teams actual points as they have in calculating the speculative points they’ve awarded to their under 19 team.

This weekend I’ll be selling booze from a little pop up bar next to the canteen and club rooms. Should my club be worried? Of course not, they know nothing about it, therefore it’s not actually sanctioned by the club. I will donate all profits to the club following the game though. I suggest...

Uni using all 45 points, stacked full of ex-AFL talent and not coming within a Bulls roar of Caulfield. Not all is well. Reserves have won just two games and if some of the murmurings are true, 2022 is going to be a big rebuild.

Won’t just be Jack Watts’ hamstring keeping him out from now it seems.

Bedford, not sure you’re keeping up here. It’s how many players have been used, not how many Player Points accrued. Can you elaborate on the players for Uni you thought might accrue more points? Should Melbourne Uni start a junior club, maybe u/9’s so that they are able to create a stream of...

Some interesting player point tallies from the weekend. Most clubs barely scratching the surface but Blues used 45/45 in a losing side. Some clubs that have copped a bit of grief over imported players (Skevs) using stuff all.

Shockingly bad take. Didn’t realise school kids were zoned to their old boys. Just imagine if he had extensive family ties to Blues, or is that not enough? Hope OM’s don’t have non old boys or Melbourne Uni students amongst the ranks. Uni clubs are full of players from schools with old boys who...

Have to agree with this, caught Blues and De La and they were very impressive against a strong Blues outfit.

Apologies to all for my bad mail.

All clubs and the VAFA have done a fantastic job IMO. It’s the fallout and impact that one case would bring at a time when cases, most importantly, community transmission, are on the rise. Interested to hear opinions on how people in the forum would feel if the competition ran for three weeks...

The problem is that if one player/coach/volunteer from any division tests positive, the house of cards comes down. The VAFA doesn’t have such liberties as floating fixtures like the AFL. Just passing on what I’ve been told and that was that the vote would be result in a “NO”.

Reliably informed that the VAFA board will convene this evening (As planned) and it’s all but assured that the season will be cancelled. Even AFL has banned contact for >9 players.

Confirmed to De La. That’s straight from the horse’s mouth.

Clearances is a very interesting one. If the VFL and other metro and country leagues do not reform in 2020, I’d think we’d expect a huge influx of players. What else would guys do? A stint on the French Riviera a bit of a stretch which would make playing in the VAFA all the more enticing.

Two months ago, on March 12th, the AFL season hadn’t even kicked off. There was no lock down (rightly or wrongly). Fast forward 2 months and every state has started to wind back its restrictions. A lot changes in 2 months which makes local footy returning on July 11 a very real possibility. AFL...

Assuming we get a green light for a 9 round season commencing July, would we follow the existing fixture (opponents, not dates) from what was Round 10 (in Prem A, B and C)?

Simple misunderstanding Hedge. Reading your comment again makes much more sense!

Very few Uni players are international students. No issue with player numbers at all.

Seriously hoping that they get things together. What’s gone so wrong? Too many outside recruits?

Consider it news for those not refreshing the VAFA’s transfer page in November

Kennedy-Harris confirmed to Blues.

All a little hush hush on this page. What is the scoop? Reading A grade forum, Matt Dea to Blacks. Not in a position to confirm this as yet, but would be a good player in B.

It’s in all three premier grades this year.

I’m think Beaumaris will beat Scotch to add some spice to the last bit of the year. Jack Bull out will hurt the Scotchies.

“Are player points interrogated and is the current limit too high?”

Q3 25min.

Also saw this. In wet conditions and with the fence so close to the boundary, am very surprised to see he got 3. A free kick and possibly the umpire can tell him to take care under the conditions but far from 3.
