Very lacklustre game, some of these guys are robbing clubs by expecting match payments for the rubbish they serve up.Quote:

I thought semis were 1v4 & 2v3 home and away with both winners straight to gf. Fox sports pulse shows old system for finals format. Is fox sports right?
I get the feeling PoxSports stuffed up right across the board with this. It happened in NewFM too.Quote:

Mind you the three named above would be staters at the bottom four clubs.

If your club can afford to pay bench players and they are happy to fill that role, obviously your club is doing something right. This sounds like pure jealousy IMO.

On average what do you think a fair payment for this comp to be?Quote:

And mind you I would take those 6 in a heart beat to any team.
On average 6 hours a week, 2 nights training plus game day at 50 an hour, for 18 weeks = $300 a win or $5,400 win lose or draw, handy little tax free Holliday at season end, each to their own this is just my personal opinionQuote:

A few clubs pay double this plus more, it's killing the spread of talent through out clubs I believeQuote:

I agree totally with ForeverRed hereQuote:

in the end the clubs make the conscious decision to spend on players or facilities. At Magic 30-45K per year is spent on upgrading something, this is for the benefit of all at the club not just the first 11... Not applying this policy Magic could compete with Jaffas and Olympic on players wages but what for... 3 FFA Cup games we hosted because of that foresight from the committee, everyone can do it... Pretty embarrassing for other clubs that have been in the comp for so long but cant keep up with the Joneses.Quote:

I agree totally with mervQuote:
