Peg,
Excuse my ignorance, but how does line bidding actually work, and when reffering to those with bad rosters are you referring to QCCA or QAL. Furthermore, when you talk about any future vote going on about introducing a "line bidding system" would the vote include QCCA staff, considering they don't actually bid?
Reality is, Melbourne rosters will get even worse now that LA's are slowly going. Anything decent left over will be taken by seniors, hence if people think the flying out of Melbourne is bad now, wait till next bid period.
