If there was a points penalty imposed on clubs recruiting players eligible for junior football (say Under 15's and above), then it might slow or stop this practice. It's been happening for years now with clubs in the Essendon and Eastern leagues among the most active participants.
How about adding 2 points to that player and it stays attached to them while they are at their new club until they turn 21.
It would really come into play if a club's recruitment policy centres around pilfering talented players from other junior clubs. Five talented teens from other clubs would attract a decent deterrent of 10 points until they turn 21 and the upshot should be that the club focuses more on developing the players that they already have.
You’re a fair way off the mark - your comments aren’t based in reality or experience, clearly.
Some clubs are gifted piles of cash and for them it is relatively easy.
For everybody else there is a hell of a lot of work and talent required. Attracting and retaining valuable sponsorships, controlling costs, running profitable concessions and events… all to produce the money required.
If you have people with the brains and experience - and most importantly, time - to do all this stuff then you’re in a very good spot. But that’s generally a case of luck in terms of who walks through the door. It’s not the professional level, clubs can’t pay six figures for a CEO who knows how to do all this stuff.
If you have these skills and time then it’s great luck for you and your club, but not everybody

You are bang on….
