Obviously, friendly matches behind closed doors will make up for this to some extent, but the chance of getting competitive games in is now over for several players. Flinders, for instance, would benefit from more games where he knows that it's worth risking injury by making a courageous decision.
Not to mention that expenses are covered by the prize money.

My observation is defence fine, midfield fine but short on fire power,
Our fringe players of Swan=Gale=Cooper not progressing as i would have expected, Brunt showing the standard required to progress at this level.
Strikers are vital in our progress and with about 7 games before Jan , time is running out for Swan and Gale.
Oates=Bowery= Akins not enough in the challenges that lie a head.
Come January Nigel has some big decisions to make and scoring goals will be vital.
Cooper found out how far of the pace he was coming against a out of form Stockton, who bullied him.
With Hewitt and Kilgour in the wings our defence and midfield sorted

some have been saying since the cows came home that we need a striker in January (Amber Andy apart), NC has had numerous transfer windows to source one and not done so. Ultimately he will stand or fall by decisions over the next few months.

Has Keillor-Dunn fell off the face of the earth?
Who is this mystery forward we are signing in january who is better than all our forwards? Who are we replacing? If we are replacing Swan then why are we bothering to get 10 minutes here and there and gets starts once every few weeks or so or in a, and I quote Clough here, "training game".
So I will ask you. Who will we feasibly sell or do we just go and get our 7th forward?
