Perhaps HQ could ask our clubs if they're interested in having a team or teams in an over 34 or over 40. OR BOTH?
Doesn't hurt to ask.
As I understand it a large part of the appeal is the fortnightly rather than weekly commitment.
I'd imagine a clubbies league (open to all ages) that played fortnightly would be quite popular and serve as a good alternative to masters as you're not reliant on finding players solely from a restricted demographic.
Perhaps limit clubs to just one side of this type to prevent xavs submitting 72 teams though.
FWIW is it time to rename the divisions properly? The current naming makes no sense and isn’t fooling anyone. Maybe Premier and then start numbering so Prem B becomes Div 1 etc

April 5.
Nice early start to the season.
Thinking back to what it used to be like, you could still do the Premier Grand Final on the Friday but the previous Saturday, if you could get the grounds, the other senior and under 19s divisions could finish the previous Saturday.

True, but I'm sure the 5-6 bye rounds that the VAFA will inevitably schedule will hamstring your common sense approach.
Agreed - but we already have the Easter Bye and the Kings Birthday weekend bye. You really only need 1 more bye for representative football and that's it.
Oh and even organise a representative match Kings Birthday weekend too.
Isn't it a shame that the 'Big Bananas' at HQ don't think like people like Pazza.
FWIW which year are we expecting to see VAFA transfers coming through the website?
Don't hold your breath.
Considering it took a suggestion from this forum last year for the VAFA to post them in a user friendly manner, your post may be the kick start HQ needs.
Can't understand why the VAFA wants to continue with playing no footy on Easter weekend while every other competition throughout Victoria has some games played on Good Friday & Easter Saturday.
Players and coaches like alike Jason usually get away at this time, I would rather players get away that weekend as opposed to in season absence.
