From the "New timing for Sunday game at The Grandstand" thread on the "Stand-Alone Polls" board:
The Sunday game at Grandstand is struggling, cancelled last week (9 Oct 2016) with only 4 players, and withdrawals for today's game leaving us with 11, only enough for a game on the small pitch.
To make matters worse, the new manager at the Premier Pitch @ Grandstand is very sticky with cancellations less than 48 hours before the game.
Further, I will be very busy for the rest of this month, up to 6 November 2016. In the circumstances, I will not be scheduling a Sunday game at The Grandstand until 13 November 2016. When I resume the game on 13 November 2016, it will be from 4 to 5 pm, in accordance with the current state of the poll.
For the three Sundays in between (23 Oct 2016, 30 Oct 2016 and 6 Nov 2016), I will schedule a game at Khalsa from 6 to 7 pm. At least the manager at Khalsa does not give me grief if I cancel very late.

System & Rules: | Please read "The GIFFA System" and "Playing Rules & Principles" for more information by following the links. Being familiar with the contents of both pages is a pre-condition to playing in our games. |
Adding names & withdrawals: | Add to the list below the names of players who are confirmed for the game. Only GIFFA Players are allowed to add names. In the first 24 hours after this post, each GIFFA Player is limited to putting the name down for one other GIFFA Player (apart from himself). In the first 48 hours after this post, each GIFFA Player is limited to putting names down for two other GIFFA Players (apart from himself). The restrictions of one or two others (as the case may be) applies even if the player does not put his own name down. No guests are allowed in the first 48 hours. After 48 hours, there is a maximum of 1 guest per player, until 24 hours before the game. Guests must be 21 or above in the current year. In the last 6 hours before the game, places are opened to any male aged 18 or above. In the last 3 hours, the age restriction is reduced to 16. All GIFFA Players are presumed to be sufficiently familiar with "The GIFFA System" and the "Playing Rules & Principles" threads. Guests should be provided with salient information contained in those threads by the GIFFA Player adding his name. Once the maximum number is reached, any other names are placed on waitlist. Withdrawals should be posted below as well, as soon as a player knows he will or may not be able to make the game. A player who withdraws need not pay for the game. However, there are fees and penalties for withdrawing 24 or less before the game. |
Prompt payment: | When I provide the payment information for the game (30 hours or less before the game), if a player owes for more than one previous game, I will give the player a choice, pay an additional $1 admin fee or be moved down to the bottom of the list of players. If there are players on waitlist who do not owe for more than one previous game, then the player may be moved to waitlist. |
Punctuality: | As set out above, the session is scheduled to start 10 minutes before the hour. The first 10 minutes are for team selectors to meet the players and consider any changes in line ups, as well as discuss formation, team organization and tactics. The game starts on the hour sharp. |
