Not so sure about that. NSW restrictions being relaxed faster than Vic. So play first 3 rounds of 9 in NSW.
No payments to anyone. Players , coaches and umpires.
So keep training individually, and be happy to train as a group with restrictions.
As for 1 pointers from the O&K , WFNC the recipient.

Interesting reading the Border Mail. Wodonga and Corowa not super keen to go ahead (citing volunteers) but Raiders and Wang kicking off training on Tuesday.
I get the feeling the clubs in contention might be keen to play but the clubs who most likely will battle aren’t so keen.
Footy won’t be easy on volunteers but I just wonder if this could be an easy option for the weaker clubs. Wodonga Saints in the Tallangatta League have offered all their players and officials full refunds on their memberships.

How many cases in the area , surely not that many to cause no footy. Also as someone who enjoys the comp from Melbourne there is no way known i'm paying to read the Border Mail.
Only 1 or 2 in Albury Wodonga in total I think. Haven’t heard of any in Wangaratta.

I’d be chasing Jamie Allan and big Normo, high quality and even more value if points are a squeeze.
So what is the problem for footy going forward.

Wang wouldn't have him when he wanted to come back 2 years ago

Too many inflated egos in the one room? He’d walk in to their side no worries.
Cresswell should be luring him in now.
Myrtleford also saying they don’t want to play today in the paper.

The successful sides like Lavington, Wang and Albury seem to be keen to at least train and keep guys together. I was surprised to hear this from Myrtleford, thought they’d be excited to unveil the big recruits, regardless of the format. Yes volunteers are going to be overloaded, but it’s obvious no one wanted to take a pay cut, they aren’t the only side that missed big profits.
The unsuccessful clubs should take a look at the way the top sides operate.
Pretty piss weak mindset from some of the lowly teams around the region to pull the pin early.

Yeah I am, and this reeks of selfish players not sacrificing their payments.
And to the lower clubs raising the white flag early, how bloody pathetic.

Why?
Touted as premiership favourites by many, two new recruits fresh from the afl, just had their best season in 15 years, they boast a strong supporter base, the whole town gets behind them, they should be chomping at the bit.
Not buying the bullshit excuses.

He was... at a club that had to fold after being run so poorly

Personally, I’ve never been involved at a club that has officially folded, but it’s not something to celebrate, either way.

Hearing from a pretty reliable source both Wang sides tussling for cheongys signature, can anyone confirm this?
Totally agree. Maybe Myrtleford’s thought process might be based around the fact that a lot of their players travel from Melbourne.
that was out of bounds

Will there be any issues with players travelling from higher density areas of the virus to play footy on the border?

Possibly combined with the struggle to retain/service sponsors at the moment & the reduced salary cap.
The travellers may not be able to front up unless adequately compensated - maybe working on Saturdays has become more of a focus or they have lost employment entirely.
I can't see Myrtleford being reluctant to play unless there are genuine extenuating circumstances - imo they've never lacked courage.
Great question

Player points value should definitely go down next year even if there is no play. Guys have committed to the club, and if they stay put for season 2021, the clubs should be rewarded, if points stay the same it’s only going to delay the equalisation.
Doesnt make a difference if players play five games or not, it’s a pointless condition.
