VJBL games cancelled

we would just be happy if SA held grading phases over Summer

All they would have to is charge for each score sheet,$5 door entry play 3games over 2 day weekend,all takings go into pool and they revenue share,the expense for each venue would be more than compensated by canteen revenue,and play each pool at neutral venue then no one is disadvantaged,burn out factor for players coaches and parents has to be reduced,it is a contributing factor for girls turning to footy,no late friday nights is another reason,you only need a venue to be running slightly behind for any number of reasons and some 18s games are starting after 10,

I agree, Start grading after New Year. Make 8 team grades, 14 rounds, top 4. 3 weeks of finals. This would make up 4 weeks b4 X-Mas!
Kids get break and some will not get burnt out by 18's.

Associations will never let it happen, way too much money lost on door and team sheet fees.

Single weekend tournament for first phase would be perfect

About time VJBlL ran the first 3 weeks off grading as a single weekend tournament and share it amongst the venues,the season is too long is a common debate,I am sure it would take pressure of families at what is a busy time of year,and would lesson the effect of sides missing good players overseas on state trips

First time in over 35 years I have seen it happen.

In over a decade of taking my kids to various domestic, rep & tournament games, this is the first time I have encountered games being cancelled ahead of time.

In this era of people suing entities over stuff that once upon a time people would get on with things... I'd say these stadiums and associations are playing it safe. Small potatoes compared to cricket where a game can be delayed/called off due to a drizzle.

It's a one off precaution .. not the end of the world.

It's the government seeing how much they can control peoples lives through news media scare tactics. Because most people are sheep they just follow what everyone else is doing and saying.

It's a complete joke. Domestic games cancelled for saturday as well, it's like we have never seen rain before. There is no wind or lightening the predicted hundreds of ml of rain of course haven't happened and was never going to happen. People are just so weak these days and society is getting weaker by the year.

The EDJBA also cancelled domestic games for today ( Sat) but Whittlesea domestic going ahead.

Its cause of the travel factor. Games rescheduled before 10 dec. Supposedly few stadiums flooded

Hey

I've edited all of the NBLSSC games down into a few highlites packages for everyone to get a look at what teams look like and maybe help out the fantasy people.
