Slight exaggeration don't you think.. haven't fielded a 3rd side all season.. and only had 16 players in B grade Rd 2 by the looks of it.
If your club misses finals by 1pt, I'd hazard a guess you have bigger concerns than the outcome of a Round 3 forced draw.
Don't know why you'd think a club like Pulteney would be willing to try and manipulate any system - it really serves them no benefit, and after a couple losses early, then Easter a week off for covid is hardly going to get the competitive juices flowing.

Let's be honest here pulteney had absolutely zero chance of obtaining any points from this weekends game if it went ahead without Covid-19 interruptions plus they would have taken a hit to their % I don't see how it's "fair" to reward them with any points. Maybe the league could issue 1 point to HV which is still 1 less than they would have got and issue 0 points to pulteney which leaves them in the same position as they would have been.
Impact of a COVID Interruption on a SINGLE MATCH
- Should an individual match within any round be abandoned, teams shall receive the points allocated for a draw and the average weekly percentage of all participating teams of the same competition from that round of matches.
- A COVID affected team must provide sufficient evidence as requested by the League to have the match declared as abandoned.
- The abandoned match will not be rescheduled.

Very easy system to manipulate

yeah was thinking the exact same - big boy nobes wont be happy one less game to kick 100 goals - would have probably kicked 10 against Pulteney

Surely you cant just ring the league and say we are covid forfeiting and then take a point.

According to playhq, B grade is cancelled, so I assume split points and A grade is a forfeit

That’s a fine line. Well done to the ammo’s for giving this rule a crack and continuing to monitor it. Would you want to play a club if they are knowingly week 1 of missing let’s say 15 with players and volunteers with covid? You don’t have to be Albert Einstein to figure there is a good chance it’s been spread at the club through no fault of theirs and others may have collectively been infected however don’t qualify as proper close contacts. It’s not scare mongering, it’s also protecting your potentially vulnerable volunteers who keep your club going.

Seems each league is handling it differently, M/Vale have been awarded a 10 goal win in all grades against Noarlunga - right down to u13's.
Be interesting if 2 clubs playing this week had significant COVID impacts, it would be a game of poker who forfeited first to get the 10 goal win
