I dont care what decision they make just as long as they clear this up once and for all. And they need to do it straight away.

You all know i LOVE Black Rock with a passion and like i said Jayde did nothing wrong,but its time the League stood up and showed some backbone on this issue.Parkmore had no right in playing him and the League didn't pick it up the buck must stop some where maybe Phil Stevens took the bullett for the mistake.
Even if you take the points off the Rockers they still stay in the four as for Parkmore they never had any points to deduct from .That Is All
No 1 important
Debutant
If Parkmore put in the transfer and there was no reply from Belgrave in the next six buisness days then he is automaticaly transferred, to Parkmore.
Then if the Rockers put in a transfer from Parkmore to the Rockers before the end of June the same rule applies, but since he is tranferring to a second club in the one year Belgrave also need to reply unless once again no reply is forthcoming in the six days.(unless the rules have changed this year)
Interestingly if he hasn't been transferred what would happen if he recieved a major injury and wasn't insured? Whoi would be held liable?

According to Belgrave's website, they never received the transfer from Parkmore. Which means the 6 day rule doesn't even come in to play.
Really the league should take this oppurtunity to show some balls, as enemy said, it's not likely to change the final 4, so what does the SFL gain by not doing anything? If they strip BR points, everyone is happy. Belgrave can sit back happy the SFL finally did something, BR still make the finals, Skye get pissed off cos they missed out on percentage, and we all get on the tinnies.
We sent an email off many weeks ago, only since the article in a local paper last couple of weeks has something happened!!
oh well thems the breaks!!!

If the league took a couple of weeks to decide & allowed Handfield to play whilst making that decision, I don't see how Black Rock are at fault. THE SFL Appear to be the ones at fault for actually registering him back @ Parkmore.
Anyway I reckon that you do not want players disqualified on a technicality. For the sake of the finals you want the best players available & having played with Jade in SFL & VAFA know that he is a quality player

You want the best players playing in the finals, thats for sure, but you don't want people playing illegally. The rules are in place for a reason, and they shouldn't be ignored regardless of the player or the grade.

Are you a player yourself MoC? How would you feel right now if the SFL said that MT Waverley stuffed up and never cleared you properly, meaning you personally have to sit there on the pine and watch your team in the finals instead of playing? I know I'd be shattered if it were me.
Everyone agrees that BR weren't at fault. Jayde was never at fault. Why should either of them suffer the consequences of someone else's actions. But on the other hand, if I steal a car and sell it to you super cheap and the cops find out, why should you lose your new car. It's a tough one, rules are there for a reason like you said, it's just heart breaking for a player to not be able to play finals with his team mates when he's done absolutely nothing wrong and has put in so much effort.

Yeah your right, I'd be absolutely shattered. I'm really not sure of any of the details, so I really cant comment on the black rock scenario.
Above were just my general thoughts on any situation involving a player that hasn't been cleared legally.
Hopefully all turns out alright.
I agree with MoC. There's no point having the rules there if you're going to bend them every time they become relevant. However, another solution is giving Black Rock a "Please show cause" as to why they should not be deducted points, allowing Black Rock to officially put the case they did nothing wrong and the SFL making a ruling. At least there's something official then, other than ignoring it. Gives the SFL some discretionary power. Not sure whether the current rules allow anything like that though.

Its been bloody quite on here for the last few days, so i thought i'd ask everyone a question.
Now that the final 4 are set in concrete and nobody can move up or down, what are teams trying to get out of the last game before finals? Will Black Rock and Doveton go all out for a win, or will they hold back their special weapons for the following week?
And for the teams that cant make the finals, what are you trying to get out of the last game of the year?

Little birdy tells me that BR will be resting quite a few, and may even let the eagles win as a bit of a mind game.
Another birdy tells me that MT are also resting 1 or 2, and the big ****** we all love so much may be not only getting a game, but a game in the 1's!! How's that for a joke, will be the funniest thing i've seen all year if it's true.
Master of Cooks

I'm not sure losing to a team is the best sort of mind games you should be playing.
Wouldn't that give the eagles the confidence they need to knock you off when it counts. IMO it would be better to give them a flogging so that they don't have any confidence. Anyhow time will tell whether or not its the right move.
My tips for this week:
Black Rock too big and strong for the eagles - 5 goals
Canterbury need a good hitout against Skye considering they are only going to play 1 game in 3 weeks leading up to finals. Cobras by 9 points.
Mount should continue their good form over the Cobras.
Cerberus to continue Dandy's horrid end of the year in a close one. 15 points in the end.

A little birdy tells me that infact you are resting players but not by choice it seems you guy's have struck some injuries down there.Can you confirm or deny,making an excuss in case you get beat tommorrow is in fact a smoke screen to hide the truth.That Is All
Bwahahahaha!

I can't confirm or deny anything. As i've said countless times, i'm not on the selection team, committee, coaching staff or playing field. Just got my eyes and ears out everywhere. To MoC, don't you think letting them win would make them come in next week all cocky thinking they have it in the bag? Anyway, like I said, all rumours. Enemy is right, few injuries. But rumours are that even more will be rested.

If losing is not what you want before finals, why would you be resting your best player and quite possibly ruin his chances at the league b+f? Just sayin
Agree, you don't want to flirt with your form so unless players are injured I reckon you play your best side
Black Rock def. Doveton by a few goals.
Cant beleive Big Pete played in the seniors. Could he be the first player to play seniors one week and then not get a game in either team the following week. Enemy Within, whats your veiw on this.

Depends on your definition of "played". I think you have to get on the ground first? Hahaha. Couldnt have happened to a nicer bloke.
Anyone brave enough to have a crack at the div 3 team? When is it officially named? I'd take Wilkin from MT, and add him to the rest of the BR team and be done with it.

Must agree depends on the term "Played" he had a Major influence on the result,Black Rock for premiers ha ha ha an absolute shoe in That Is All.
Does this spell the end for Div 3?
Is this the gentleman who so politely and pointedly made reference to the fact he was going to recommend to the SFL that Div 3 be disbanded reaier in the season? He was concatenating all of the responses on this forum and adding them as part of his recommendation. I do hope said gentleman added his own rather colourful, if not eloquent responses.

EXPERIENCED football administrator Craig Braddy has joined the Southern Football League in a consultancy role.
AFL Victoria will fund the position, aimed at improving management and brand recognition for the Southern league.
Braddy will work with the league on a number of review areas, including its management and governance models and opportunities for growth.
``This is a unique opportunity for the SFL to benchmark itself and set the league's future directions in partnership with AFL Victoria,'' SFL CEO Garry Cranny said.
``The SFL board and management are firmly committed to the health and development of Australian Rules football in our region.
``We need to provide an improved pathway for junior and youth players to a reputable, well administered senior competition.
``For this to occur, we must have the trust and confidence of all stakeholders and the wider community.
``The changes we will make in the forthcoming months are fundamental in positioning this league to meet the ever-changing needs of our operating environment.''
Cranny said it was gratifying that AFL Victoria was being so supportive of Southern.
A former Fitzroy and Sydney player, Braddy was the long-time CEO of the Eastern Football League.
