I'm with you though, I don't agree with throwing a name out there.Originally Posted by plague
I think most clubs do a bit of due diligence on new teams when they come into a club. We always check with associations and refs if a whole team comes asking for a spot. Mostly the issues raised are teams with a history of fielding ineligible players, never had cases of teams moving on because of violence.
Individual players though, we've never checked. You just hope the team they are coming into has.
If this is the case I heard about recently same bloke got sent against us last season for a headbutt for no reason at all...just threw it in the middle of the park...his teammates weren’t overly impressed then either.
4 weeks for a criminal offence? I once heard of a bloke getting 8 weeks for a facebook comment
Is this Barnsley we are talking about? Or was it the Merewether player in the same game?
Does any know roughly what the punishment would be for a team/club that continually forfeits All Age games? As in roughly 3 forfeits so far this season.
Pretty sure team that forfeits 3 times without good reason is removed from the competition.
Not sure of ongoing punishment, but there is a fine for each forfeit.
$200 fine if not notified within 72 hours of the fixture
Not sure if it would get them withdrawn from the comp
Isn't there a maximum number of games you can forfeit before you are out altogether?

Any idea on punishment of teams playing an unregistered player under a different name?
If proven normally get kicked out of the comp
As long as you can prove this, at the very least all points will be removed. More often though, the team is removed from the competition. A lot of clubs were removed last season, havent heard about too many this year.
Fine for the club is around the $1,000 mark as well.
An all age women’s team was found out last week, removed from the comp, teams playing them get the 3-0 win from forfeited fixture , not sure of fines for the club
South Cardiff All Age Men's H Grade got busted recently too
the second half of the draw was awarded as forfeits
can't imagine a big club like South Cardiff wanting their name associated with that team again
