? | https://www.sen.com.au/news/2019/03/22/afl-players-to-be-given-free-agency-for-life Under the new guidelines, those who are axed by their club will be made a delisted free agent for life, overriding the previous rules where a player had to notch up eight years of service before being eligible for restricted free agency. In the past, players who had been delisted prior to eight years of service would be forced to enter the draft or explore their options during the trade period, but the new rules gives these players more flexibility in that they will be able to look elsewhere at the completion of their contract.

Perhaps the AFL or the State Government can reimburse the clubs for loss of revenue (gate receipts/memberships) during this disruption period.

Less than 24 hours to go. .Countdown

What do you guys think will be be the crowd size for tomorrow's game? Considering we had massive turn outs for the finals you'd think we'd get a decent crowd in for the first game of the year at a friendly day and time. Will we crack the 40,000 mark? What's a pass mark?

Is he the guy we have to thank for Jesse May (and Kolodjashnij)?

Dropped some easy marks but I'll concede the rust factor.

Bruce loves pumping up Carlton.

Lynch not far behind.

Had a mare tonight.

He'll be back just in time for Anzac Eve.

Someone in graphics at the MFC really did a major stuff up with the half forwards/full forwards and followers.

Yes. There are 18 spots in the league. If more people want to join but can't before the deadline then I will flick some of the "experts". There are 4 more spots and I can free up to 5 extra ones.
