Interesting story in Inside Footy today. Quotes Martin Stillman as saying he wouldn't be comfortable if Geelong went into the finals with a heavy influence of AFL players. He wants to restrict them to 16-6 from next year.
He's also got the idea of allowing clubs to recruit players from interstate and not having their payments included in the salary cap. It's a way of letting the VFL get back at those vultures from the SANFL (and WAFL). Bloody good idea
I love the VFA history too but you're living in the past, chief. The comp would be long dead and buried if it wasn't for the AFL clubs. Sad but true. By the way have we heard any more on the VFA team of the century?
I wasn't being critical of the AFL clubs or the alignments.
I am critical of the differant set of rules and allowances for [b]ONE [/b]club.
Some good points coming from a few people so i wont quote, but, under the current circumstances it's hard to restrict geelong to 12-10 in the future they should build and have a reserves side as well they would have to and work something out with weribee to perhaps determine zoning etc. for ex TAC players.
geelong having reserves will only strengthen thier VFL club however Geelong will still dictate who plays etc so it will be hard for the young kids to get a chance if not Listed.

Bring back Geelong West and Joe Radojevic.[/quote
I reckon Joe would struggle to get a kick...unless he's been training hard for the past 20 years!!
