I'll put something on the table, we have always paid players since I can recall, 90's onwards, we paid more money in early 2000's than we do now, we still spend what we can and thats the way it is. Its not what you spend, its who you spend it on, plenty of big names money men have failed to produce over the years
I've always said on this forum its not a crime to pay players its been happening in all leagues for 50 years, plenty clubs have failed with it , plenty of clubs have succeeded doing it.
Noble Park,Balwyn,Parkdale,East Brighton,StKilda City,St Pauls,Clayton all spent plenty from 1990-2005 at various times and all had success , Balwyn by far the biggest spender.
Yet , I dont think any club has made 4 grand finals in a row, thats our aim and our motivating force this year, to achieve something the super powers of this league couldnt.
ST Pauls 06,07,08 StKIlda City 07,08,09 Balwyn 98,99,2000, pretty sure NOble got 3 in the 90's have to check it
As far as Chelsea Heights goes , no doubt they feel there on the cusp so there going for broke, same goes for stpauls Id suggest there performance last year was a backwards step and its good to see other clubs angry and hungry to get out and have a crack
Not to mention the other 2 or 3 we lost just prior to 2005. Have been there plenty of times..
