It’s actually 21 teams, that list doesn’t include Aspley and Southport (QLD).

Interestingly the article says the salary cap is $100,000 for AFL affiliated clubs and $200,000 for stand alone. What does each player get, $10,000?

I wondered about the number of teams as I read about a couple more. Apparently a 16 round season but I suppose we'll see when it happens.

Salary cap does look low although that would only be players not on the AFL list I presume.

True but there's still what, a dozen VFL listed players? I'm guessing it's just match payments.

Why is it only 16 rounds when there are 22 teams? Seems strange with the financial pressures that teams will have to travel interstate.

Daniel Coffield off to play for Sandringham in ‘21.

Good player. Will be missed. Coffield too.

Dissapointing if Beasley and Coffield go.

 

[Dyer'ere]

If Miller has come on as reported and if he's to play back that would limit Beasley's opportunities, wouldn't it? And we've held on to Garth.

 

[Brodders17]

Do we have any VFL players this year, or we just going to play with the 22, minus injuries, who arent picked in the ones?

Probably will be the AFL clubs seconds doing most of the traveling as better bankrolled.

Rubbish idea too many teams.

The NEAFL was fine on its own.

How can #lolnorf afford a standalone VFL team?

They've made profits for about the last dozen years and are almost out of debt. Not the financial basket case they once were.

St Kilda on the other hand......
