NFNL Div 2 discussion 2023

[Thunder1]

25-1 across both senior grades so far this season, sounds like the club is in turmoil

grass_cat and how long have this fantastic club been wallowing in division 2
Wouldn’t want to choke again come finals time

In division 2..

Fun fact: Eltham's last senior (male) flag was won when the league was still known as the DVFL.

grass_cat 143-26 since start of 2018 season and no senior flag to show for it

Geez that XL spreadsheet should sort it then

That’s because they still have 1 more week of payments

They run the league this mob. Just take the piss and do whatever they like, get everything they want from Seniors to Juniors. They just never achieve!

I think Lalor was still in Division 1 when Eltham last won a senior flag?

Lalor and Epping.

Seems like Eltham putting out a statement has just added more fuel to the fire. They must think they have their ducks in order but surely there was no need to release a statement on Facebook. Could have addressed key sponsors and members privately if they really felt the need. Bizarre decision although these rumours were swirling around pre season

Would that include incentives for best players in the post-match in the social club?

Their best might see them run second anyway.

It makes absolutely zero sense.

So players said they won't take a pay cut as they need the same money each week......but only for 14 weeks, after that they don't need the weekly payments....

What a crock of shit. And amazingly they are only now getting the forms in order (as per the rumour of it being a recent occurance)

That comment stood out like dog's balls.

Agreed re Diamo being rightful favourites in Div 2.
I was told tonight that all Grandfinal sides in all divisions will be audited by the NFL - Eltham may not be too worried with this approach but others may?

Audits do nothing other than find tiny admin errors.

Most clubs pay cash because there is zero paper trail, you can’t be caught

Poor old mate in the magoos who might be up for a game in the 1's and can't play because they can't afford $50 for him to play after round 14

They would just give those blokes a labouring job or washing a car LOL

and the money banked from match day raffles at each home game suddenly drops to zero.

Stats decs in progress after clearances closed…convenient

In June we were told… it’s now mid July and they are being “finalised”

What a mess

 

[Brass Tap]

Panther lads who usually have solid input on this forum a bit quiet on the topic..

Would love to hear what Ebert & Ernie have to say?

 

[NFNL Member]

This stuff could ONLY happen in the NFNL!!
Stillman live in Eltham too or something??
What a farce, All these comments show just how ridiculous this sounds and in fact is! Covering their asses right at the last moment but apparently it was all planned pre season

 

[nfnlegend]

It's all very odd... Either the culture & leadership at Eltham is absolutely elite, or it's absolutely cooked.

It’s a poor situation.

They’ve according to them spent 88k in 14 rounds which actually puts them over the D1 salary cap.

88,000/14 = 6285

6285 X 18 rounds - $113,000

Salary cap is $110,00 in D1

They should have just cut peoples pay and balanced the books.
