Premier League 2020 Postponed due to COV-19...?

Could be wrong, but was on a 2 year contract as coach and jdo, sacked him with over year to go so I believe they're still paying him decent money. That's why before the virus they didn't have jdo, no money in kitty for them. That's why I think they're in trouble. Paying him, losing a lot from Easter tournament and local league, their cash cows, and highest fees in state, often for inferior gyms and facilities.
Don't think the government will pay for paying out contract. Hmmm, if only there was an extraordinary general meeting to ask these questions.

889, why would they be paying Rojo a salary?

There's more chance of a delayed NBL season than a delayed winter domestic/rep/semi-pro season.

As I said, if one of those kids come down with it and involved in district, expect no winter season.

Noticed that GTM held a clinic today with a number of kids, would assume parents gave permission but is Rashad being reckless going against BSA and their decision to ban training? Will get interesting if any kids are positive,there goes season for sure!

Who is sensitive?

Starling is based here genius

$75 for 45 minutes geez. Explains why so many Norwood kids are training at other clubs individuals.

South Imports still here

Okay 147. Keep doing you, King.

Tell me whyflames won't survive. Other clubs are in same positions.

Ridiculous comment.
Just proving once again how far you Norwood people are removed from the real world."

I'm not a Norwood person, or even a fan of the club. I just don't care for brain-dead comments or troll attempts that are poorly executed.

Not real bright, are you?*

Is Starling playing footy, if so hows he going. If he is it looks like a genius move now!

Additional to above. Otherwise couldn't coaches do 16 individuals at the same time and if those individuals chose to play pickup game afterwards it kind of defeats ban.

Aren't doing individuals not allowed?

And? Don't pay if it's not worth that much to you.

maybe because Norwood can't afford to send them home......

The only club that has not sent their imports home are Norwood.
Problem is they have 2 coaches that are imports as well.
Too many mouths to feed, terrible decision making to leave them in the country!
This is why they are looking for members to bail them out and pay winter fees and have claimed donations are tax deductible. Are they a charity?

^wow, 1st panda army then had to say retraction twice, so so dumb at South!

Sheer crazy season. Well noone season. My error Panda army should be panther army...regardless great squad assembled. Keen for team photo... undefeated season.

Had also heard the rumour about Norwood, pretty sure they are not alone. If this lockout continues for 3 to 6 months numerous clubs will be in a lot of trouble.
Clubs could easily lose $30k to $50 k in a blink of an eye. Not all clubs could absorb that. If Winter season gets wiped out for Juniors its gonna be ugly.
How long till clubs start sending Imports home, JDOs being laid off to cut overheads.
Fingers crossed the hoops get started again soon, but cant see it happening knowing we are about to enter the cold winter months.

You should see letter from Norwood President and you will realise the talk on the street is correct

Whoever is talking on that street must be illiterate if they believe Norwood is in "finical" trouble.

word on the street is Norwood in big trouble finically...LOL can't do easter carnival so no income now.

The panda army, haha, that is freaking gold and shows what a moron you are!
Never been harder to get a win there, yep, that sums up the home team!
Panda army, ROFL!!!!

Ok so positive mindset to spend the dollars and take advantage of unrest elsewhere. That's spells smart work to.me. that's be proactive. So you saying spend nothing and ignore opportunities. That's shows your lack of vision.
Door ajar get in. Stealthy Panthers strikes. No more Mr nice guy pussy cats
The panda army is on the moove.. ignore or embrace.

Ok a couple of typos.i meant you got to be dumb if don't think south have significantly improved their squad. Marion isn't n o t great venue but has character. Never been harder than this season to get a win there. Virus or no virus credit to recruiting team. Shows what positive progressive mindset can do. If don't help yourself nothing changes. New era.

Considering most PL/NBL imports for the last decade have been predominately NCCA D2, NAIA or even JUCO level I would say any college player coming back is effectively a "free import"in this competition.

All College players will be back early by the looks of it, so with the season postponed clubs will have them available for round 1 rather than mid way through the season! This should certainly help clubs and bump up the talent going around for season kick off.

^^the way you write I seriously doubt anyone can be dumber than you. Unless someone dropped their phone in the monkey enclosure and you taught yourself how to type, in that case you're a very smart ape.
But it does highlight the intelligence of South supporters, so well done. I wonder if you're the president that hired Jamie?

Dont be so petty. whatmore can he do. Assemble very decent squad. Guys arend fools. Clearly impressed by his sales pitch. Ifyou don't think that south crew is serious contenders err you get to be dumber than me.
This season needs to start bring some flair to the panther den. rocks even when team isordinary it be swaying like billy ray cryus mullet on steroids. Breakin nonbelievers hearts. Òooooo yeah.

Word is Jamie turned up to game and wondered where everyone was? Yep, panther corner rocking alright, sacked by week 6.

Talking shit. The season got issues getting off the ground. And you suggesting clubs still recruiting.... clubs have enough to worry about keeping those offered big dollars... need bums on seats... most promising season was looming. South head line act. Panther corner be rocking - starling rock God status.

Thomas returning from the USA with virus scare. Whitmore sitting at the airport with big brown paper bag at airport hoping to bring Woodville to the promised land.

Lions Den, we bow towards you, you are the reincarnation of Nostradamus!

Looks like I was on the money... Take note haters

All NBL1 games are live-streamed. Why can’t they be played without a crowd?

Postponed til April 18th at the earliest

Norwood just cancelled All games, juniors, seniors, NBL 1

Before advice from BSA or BA (probably inevitable now) Norwood's president has unilaterally decided that all battles his underlings and minions compete in will be cancelled for the weekend.

The supreme ruler spoke to his caliphate this afternoon after consulting heavily with the other regals in the house of his clan. This was completed after calling on expert advice of his newly appointed NBL1 Chiefs and Jordy Wilson.

Some observers have stated that the dictator was in fear of the impending beatings and beheadings coming up on this particular weekend for the clan on the field of battle.

All hail the king.

PS: now we await the experts in the peak sporting bodies to provide a proper assessment.

NBL1 Central get about 200 per game if lucky. The season will start as scheduled

North might have 1,000

Gatherings of more than 1000 so NBL1 Central is well and truly safe

Should we start a thread for every potential impact that the coronavirus is having?

Is this post from Sturt?

Yep, overnight.
