I strongly believe, that WE, that is the SMJFL & Member Clubs supported by their loyal gang of volunteers, have delivered on the ‘It’s About the Kids’ objective in 2015. WE have achieved this by conducting more than 3,000 games of footy in the 2015 season, these games were contested by 399 teams made up of over 9,500 players, all kids, aged between 7 and 17 & both boys and girls. That’s an achievement WE can all be proud of. There will be winners and runners up out of today’s games. One of the SMJFL’s stated values is ‘Respect & Tolerance’, each team and player deserves that.

    TRIBUNAL 2021 TRIBUNAL 2021 CONTENTS 3 Introduction 4 Changes introduced for 2021 4 How the system works 6 Reportable Offences 8 Further explanation of key terms and issues 12 Guidelines for Tribunal hearings 13 Directions for Tribunal Jury members INTRODUCTION The systems and processes that underpin the operations of the AFL Tribunal (Tribunal) are fundamental to the AFL competition. There have been a number of amendments to these systems and processes for 2021 following our annual review. As part of the review, we requested feedback from all AFL and AFLW Clubs, the AFL and AFLW Competition Committees, the AFL Players Association (AFLPA) and industry representatives. The guiding principles of the Tribunal system are: » To operate a simple system which is fair and reasonable and can be understood readily by the industry and wider public; » To achieve greater consistency in the reporting process via a Match Review Officer (MRO); » To promote appropriate outcomes by processing lower-level offences via the MRO, and higher-level offences via the Tribunal; » To promote the transparency and certainty of the process by detailing various Reportable Offences and determining the severity (and corresponding sanctions) for those offences; » To promote efficiency of the Tribunal process by allowing Players, where appropriate, to accept and challenge penalties without having to appear before the Tribunal; » To provide Players with the opportunity to contest a charge by permitting legal representation; and » $107,500 in low-level financial sanctions imposed, compared with $178,000 in 2019. » To provide Players with prescribed avenues of appeal in respect of MRO and Tribunal determinations. » $62,500 in fixed financial sanctions imposed, as against $106,000 in 2019.

  • Fantasy Freako Nabrd3
    CHAMPION/DATA/ISSUE 2 Hi and welcome to the second edition of the Fantasy Freako’s Pre-Season rave. I’m sure that we’re all looking forward to the NAB Cup Grand Final this week between Collingwood and Essendon, but our focus will also be on the NAB Challenge games. With most teams fielding their strongest side of the pre-season this week, it will be a good indication of where some of the player’s are at. Keep track of who get games this week, as they will more than likely be in the mix for Round 1. Just a reminder about next week’s rave, you can expect to receive it on Thursday due to the public holiday in Victoria. Even the Freako deserves a day off like everyone else. Enjoy this week’s read and don’t forget to follow me @FantasyFreako on Twitter. Get exclusive AFL Dream Team information from the NAB challenge games live and post game. MPP (MULTI POSITION PLAYERS) There will be a greater reliance on multi position players (MPP) this year as we look to cover those dreaded donuts during bye(s) rounds. Regardless of what approach you take, it’s inevitable that you will be stretched at stages during the year. Selecting the right MPP will have its rewards, but you have to do it correctly to reap the full benefits. For example, it’s no point having Goddard, Gilbee and Deledio all as defenders, if you don’t have a MPP in the midfield that you can swap them around with.
