  1. it's not new, auto renew occurred to me last year too, after explicitly requesting it to not happen the previous year. i rang up last year and complained and was assured i was registered as no auto renew. now it has happened this year again (not by email but by snail mail this morning). i'm wondering if this might be an afl thing rather than a club thing. it seems to me all the clubs share a lot of the processes of membership renewal and registration.
  2. in the past i have explicitly requested no automatic renewals, yet that is what happened to me last year too i don't mind reminders but not auto billing
  3. and then they went to the vfa.....and head hunted.....and became a target to every journey man vfa player looking for a big name scalp i remember particularly billy barrot among others getting a torrid time
  4. i just wish they'd stop using the term "sling tackle" because the discussion then just devolves into the technicalities of what constitutes a "sling tackle" (i.e. one arm pinned, two arms pinned, double action sling etc) which avoids discussing inherent danger and risk. the issue is simply one of a dangerous tackle which endangers the head, basically where the played is slammed with excessive force to the ground not saying this one was or wasn't but deserved discussion and mro review. i'd probably have given a fine to send a message, because it certainly was on the border
  5. mro/tribunal couldn't do any worse if they flipped a coin for guilt ...and used a dice to determine penalty .....would make good reality television too
  6. as i remember it show day and cup day were both 1/2 day holidays. most companies (to avoid disruption) picked just 1 of the two or gave employees a choice to make it a whole day holiday p.s. and i think some companies (not many) voluntarily gave both as full days
  7. you still use atm's, moonie.....i thought you were more progressive
  8. never drink and drive, moonie
  9. yeah ethan, watching this dross i'm glad we never merged with these losers
  10. since when was sense a requisite for politics?
  11. apparently fake news....afl never heard of it nor are they considering it
  12. they're still trying to understand the rules of the game, no time for comments
  13. only solution is do away with interchange coaches will have the choice of run their team into the ground or start resting onballers deep and keeping them deep guess what the will choose
  14. another high scoring game.......that 6:6:6 is sure working well, afl meddlers
  15. it's not just a 2020 season problem. it has been going on for years. the afl can be such a bunch of bungling amateurs sometimes and certain self-interested coaches have a lot to answer for too
  16. objectively i would roll back 90% of the rule changes/interpretations of the last 5 years (probably more years too) all they have added is confusion, inconsistency, supporter derision, complexity, unfairness and added diddly squat to the spectacle what a fn debacle #givemebackmygame
  17. there is no excuses reasons a plenty. a fully professional environment does work for some, bur for too many others it is their downfall, big money, lots of attention, molly coddled, can't think for themselves etc etc
  18. haha......."our best 22"......now there's an oxymoron if ever i heard one
  19. seems to me our problems are much more than just a coach or coaches what worries me is we could replace the coach, much of the fd, mahoney, pert most of the board...... ......and then we would be further in debt..... .....and getting a new home (which we desperately need) then gets put back another decade. and no-one wants to come to come to a club that has no proper home so, given all our problems, now might be a good bargaining time to get afl/gov support for a new home and not blow a lot of money into the breeze with a massive expensive reorganisation as we've done so poorly many times over just thinking
  20. maybe it's time to do something radical...... .........like merge with hawthorn
