Firstly i have no involvement with the NFNL as a Director , employee , relative of either of those or any other connection .
In fact i was involved with the club that brought about the downfall of Peter Floyd .
As a club person in the past i am aware that our League pay a fee to Darebin...
Just catching up with entries over the past month .Mr. Crane as an experienced contributor ,you should understand that you need to be careful with your comments . The detailed audited financial statements were distributed at the AGM and delegates invited to ask questions . They are audited by a...
8 teams playing each other twice equals only 14 rounds not 16 . To continue with 18 rounds would mean playing each other twice plus playing half of the teams three times . Leave it as is thank yoi
Cleared by tribunal ??? But the tribunal hasn't met yet
Anyway according to Collingwood players its OK to jump off the ground and knock someone out . Used to be a duty of care to protect players .
But how much does your AFL membership cost . I get an AFL finals ticket for next to nothing via MCC membership but pay an arm and a leg annual subscription .
Bundoora and Heidelberg good value at $17.50
None of the above . Just a club volunteer ( in the past ) who appreciated the support given by the league . Worked hard on establishing a good working relationship with them
Reporter in the Herald Sun stated that Casey couldn't select Turner and Lawrie as they played for Melbourne in AFL round 24.
Why was Footscray allowed to select 4 players in their VFL team that played round 24 AFL ?
Seems like a reporter not up to speed with the facts .
I'd say you have little appreciation of how to run a football league . Its a difficult job dealing with clubs that are mostly interested in looking after their own club and may not understand the bigger picture .
As a former club secretary , the standard of administration improved drastically...
Good weather and good attendance in the finals allows the league to obtain a break even financial result for the year ( ask your club to show you the audited financial report ).Some finals series are financially better than others based on the number of clubs involved , Collingwood not...
I agree with your comments re umpire abuse . Apart from that it seems a lot of umpires didn't return after Covid ----they found other " family " type things to do .
There are no fat cats at NFNL headquarters ---possibly they are overworked and underpaid . Have a look at the annual report .
Paying the umpires more doesn't necessarily improve the standards . General lack of numbers across the State with many umpires doubling up with multiple matches across...
Have just catching as I haven't logged in for a while .
Saw a reference to the fat cats at head office . Happen to know two of them and they are devastated that there are no finals .
Really dedicated people at HQ
In our local cricket comp North Metro ( formerly JIKA ) the top 3 grades were unable to conduct grand finals in the 2019/20 season ( Noting that all the lower grades completed grand finals the previous week ) . The Board decided not to award premiers in these top grades . The matter went to...
