Pathetic.

I remember meeting Brian Taylor at a school footy clinic back when he played for Richmond.

Looks like Tambo is touching up Jordan in your avatar willy

Not saying it's right but it's a legal requirement these days

Parents who conduct Aus kick clinics, parents who coach kids sporting teams and people who umpire kids sports  to name a few all have to get these checks done now

Literally Jumping through hoops...

Part of me gets it, the other part of me just thnks  :facepalm

Wp, it says the check was not required until 1st of august ? I can absolutely get the legal side of it, most people who work with kids need to get it. But if it's not needed until the 1st of aug then what's the problem

Thanks

I thought the new changes had already come in. Obviously that's not the case..

The AFL as the controlling body should be aware of all requirements but I doubt they'd have a clue

Agree the situation is a farce, but it is utterly ridiculous that players don't have a WWCC. Should be a matter of routine that they all apply and get one. Everyone knows that you can't have formal contact with kids without one these days.

AFL

The run the show, they should ensure clubs are aware of these requirements. Ditto the players association. Surely those at the top should be directing clubs about this

They control things

So I guess once we find out whether the afl did implement a system in which the clubs knew what was required of their players, we can work out who stuffed up.

No other clubs have.

It's not hard to get.   It's just an administrative bungle.
