SFL should get on board with the whole thing and have a bye or not get involved at all.
Yes tight lines last year this weekend did cost Josh Vick the Mail Medal - will common sense prevail next year???????
If what you say is true mexican then it is a league first. The SFL has actually used common sense to fix a problem.
I always thought the SFL has a strict rule on dealing with problems in the league dont they???? ignore it until it either goes away or totally stuffs up everything.
Funny actually I mentioned this in my earlier post and was shot down by swooper. Looks like the SFL read "the lova's" post and took it on board. better luck next time swooper.
Well done to the league for allowing players with legitimate excuses to pull out of the carnival and not be penalised. They have however set a precedent and it would not surprise me in future years that they find upwards of 10 players pull out at the last minute citing work.
In fact Lova if you actually hung out at a footy club on a Thursday night for more then 5 minutes you would’ve heard these points being raised over a beer or two. Who knows you may even enjoy the event of socialising with others and the experience of actually living – rather then sitting behind your computer 24/7 concocting warped opinions formed in your darkened bat cave.
Get out there lad!
