I know it has been spoken about but..... Expect clearances to be blocked unless a league folds.

Clubs aren't allowed to deny clearances because they aren't playing.. This is from the FAQ:

What happens to our contracted players if we don’t play in 2020?
A Player under contract cannot be refused a transfer on the basis that they are under contract if their Club does not participate in the 2020 season and is consequently unable to provide an opportunity to play.

Correct... I didn't give full detail sorry haha.

I meant for clubs who are still playing. Bloke's can't leave just because they aren't getting their full payments.

500 allowed from July the 1st.... western Australia allowing venues to hold up to 300 inside as of today at the 2 per sq metre.

You can have up to 160 now, 80 on the field and 80 inside the club rooms/outside areas.


Why are the sanfl waiting then? If that’s confirmed, no need for a Tuesday meeting.

SA Health to (hopefully) announce the further easing of conditions to come into affect at the end of the month and therefore much higher spectator numbers

That's going to be a bitter pill to swallow having to approve clearances to players that have already been paid a non-refundable sign on fee for this year ;)
So you've seen everything have you?
Yep
Have you ever seen a man eat his own head?
No
Well you haven't seen everything then have you.

SANFL have just announced there will be no player payments in Community Football Leagues across the state for season 2020 to assist with a viable return to play for all clubs.

Existing regulations on travel allowances will remain to support regional clubs with travelling players. After match awards also will continue to be permitted.

This could be a great leveller for the competition and see which club has built loyalty and not just used a major sponsor to win a flag.
Could be the most satisfying year to win a GF.

Cfl are there as governing football in the state for the whole state. I'd country leagues cancel (highly likely now) they should not allow amateur leagues to play. No waybtheybwant to be responsible for killing small clubs off. May not be 2021 but before the decade is over lots of small clubs will now be folded if they allow some leagues tonplayband others to not.
Lets see if they govern for the state or govern for their jobs???
If you don't like it, change it. If you don't want to change it, it can't be that bad!

Exactly what the points system does. Just gives them an even greater advantage again. Glad I've got a golf membership cause it's gonna get used now that our league won't be going ahead.

Suddenly best player will get $1200 then sliding scale
Depending on the number of imports 18th best could be worth $500
