Your seriously expecting Jason Baker to play for free? No one at he's level plays for free. I'm sure he accepted less money at he's local club then he could have got elsewhere. He played all last year and obvouisly this year for whatever reason it didn't work out. I don't for a second think that...
Well that was he's junior club and he went back so can't be that bad a bloke. Juniors there left to play higher levels and then went back there after. Regardless of what happened that's a lot more honourable then some blokes.
So Duckworth-Lewis was voted in at the rules meeting. It would appear though not many actually understand the Duckworth Lewis method. Do we know what historical scores will be used for the basis of the calculation? Senior Division Scores? How far back will the historical scores go? Or have we...
Going to be some busy nights at the VTCA tribunal this week. Brenton Parchment from senior division and possibly the best player in the grade below Steve Goodwin. Both reports came after the match interestingly and not reported to captains after games.
Any other clubs in Moreland being told they have to put in another application for the grounds over finals for training and playing? This has never happened before and it would seem they know want us to pay if we are successful. The council bill already went up $2000 this season and now there...
Can't see them having a higher playing budget for VTCA than premier and that's what would be required for them to be competitive again at the top levels of the VTCA. Don't think they will ever be highly competitive in the upper echelons of VTCA again. They will find a level further down the...
Football clubs are generating more money if there turning over 4 million they might be able to afford 400k. As cricket clubs we don't turn over anything like that some clubs could go to the wall over a playing budget as little as 15k. I would say there are plenty of cricket clubs losing money...
Nothing will ever be perfect. There will never be a salary cap then and yes clubs will always find ways around it. That's true of anything. Local players between 23-27 are either good enough to play District or they play local. Lots give away cricket to play footy and local cricket clubs aren't...
They merged with North Melbourne District club and the whole operation is based out of Greenvale. They are now trying to run a district cricket club with four grades and trying to be competitive in the VTCA at the same time. It's clearly not working as all there turf teams are all bottom or near...
All the local footy comps have a cap. The reality is there is one turf competition the VTCA competes with for players and that's sub district who are likely to bring in a cap soon anyway. We are not competing with district clubs they pay nowhere near the amount of money of the top VTCA clubs...
The amount of clubs who voted against the salary cap who would not get anywhere near the cap was amazing. If your only paying peanuts and the salary cap is higher it's in your best interests to vote for it. Was an amazing result really.
