Rumours only ..with allegedly a win to rupo with a possible 60 point win attached..surely not.???
How is that fair? You can't just allocate a 60 point win. Surely just a rubbish rumour. If that's the case do this for their round 11 game as well please

It would seem like EDFL logic
IMO any club officials should not be on the ground other than the umpires escorts let the players, umpires and the tribunal sought it out .

Would be interesting to know the conditions, if any, that were put to both WRFL clubs upon entry. SA have a great set up but pretty sure they are the only club that has a venue type set up like they have. Is that open during junior games on a Sunday? I would assume so, so wondering if any conditions were attached to the clubs entry.

Escorted 5 metres to the social club
I’m sure they would all go into the social rooms post game or are you saying the players all went home? Let’s be fair dinkum here police were there to stop it escalating and HS players and officials could leave the rooms safely. The police did come fast and in good numbers.

Oh ok, Interesting.
So do both leagues have different rules around that? I assume so.
Not EDFL related i know but seems the SFNL have stuck their heads in the sand about a Coward Punch that put that bloke in hospital a few weeks ago when the gates were locked and the defib didn't work. Astounding given for much work the Pat Cronin Foundation do around footy that an entire league and AFLVic throw it in the too hard basket

There will be footage of the incident on CH 9 news tonight. Not good for the EDFL.

If it happens and it's a huge if, it would be like they defaulted. The opposing team should be rightly rewarded in that case. 60 points seems fair to me.

So the only team that would benefit from all this would be Rupertswood?
This has to be garbage. Or every team they haven't played yet, should get the same outcome.

I posted the by-laws in regards to a forfeit which must be very much on the cards. Same would apply to whoever they were playing.So the only team that would benefit from all this would be Rupertswood?
For those who missed the footage it’s on nine news website very ordinary behaviour

Is that the SA Vice President who punches him twice in the ribs from behind whilst he was on the ground being attacked and again on the fence snipes him from behind and is restrained by a person in a SA jacket. If true totally disgusting and cowardly behaviour from their second in charge. He must condone and encourage that behaviour instead of trying to defuse the situation and allow the player to go into the changerooms.
Great work by the HS umpire escort and the security guard. I think it was just lucky the police rolled up very quickly!
Agreed. Why would the club playing them the next week get the benefit? Does not seem right and could be the difference between finals and no finals. Let's just wait for the league to put out a statement before we get too carried awaySo the only team that would benefit from all this would be Rupertswood?This has to be garbage. Or every team they haven't played yet, should get the same outcome.

Looks like it throwing them like a little scared kid from behind to the point he went past the player then decided it was a good idea to cheap shot twice while on ground in saying that I don’t think it would have hurt a fly
**** him weak as piss sniper ban him for life

Watched that footage and the alleged VP slings the HS player to the ground from behind while the player is being confronted by 4-5 SA spectators then proceeds to punch the player 2-3 times in the ribs (from behind). Appears to have minimal impact on the player who is more concerned with defending himself against unsolicited attack from other spectators in front of him.
If you look at the intent and his actions, though, the alleged SA Vice President is surely not fit for any official position in a footy club. If the EDFL were serious he (and others) would be banned from attending any EDFL footy for life.
The vision is damning and irredeemable.
