Balwyn and Blackburn are playing on good Friday. Strathmore and Keillor in edfl. Ammos is a traditional league.
Should be good for the maggies to finally have a game. Been training sunce November under a new coach and with 10 gone from last years side and a youthful feel about the place with plenty of local juniors looking to play seniors at their home club, this was literally the first time they have taken the field!
The called off praccy game really hurt preseason preparations
Ok yep you are right. When I checked a few weeks ago when I booked my flights I couldn't find a game anywhere, so a couple of fixture changes.
There's also a VFL game too, but originally all comps had byes on the Easter weekend.
Perhaps a couple of QAFl clubs should ask for a fixture change next year as an experiment to see if Good Friday pulls a crowd
The Ovens and Murray , the Murray , and a few other local comps in that area all play a game on Good Friday and experience large crowds.

In The Nepean league Sorrento and dromana play every year on Easter Saturday. Morningside and mt Gravatt would be a good game on good Friday or stand alone easter Saturday game
In fact , the Murray league play 5 games on the good friday.
The GVFL also have a good friday match ......
and all other games for the fixture afe played on the easter saturday
You happy to umpire any games over Easter peanut? Reckon this would be the biggest drama. I'm like Damo, unsure why it didnt start earlier and games at Easter, and especially good Friday, are dumb IMO,at this level.

Yeah, I'd be happy to put my hand up. Would be a game you wouldn't want to miss, cos it would be rough !!

Sounds like you rate yourself as a hard man pea nut. Is that right?

Just reading your message about how the game would be played if you were an umpire. Wasn't that hard to piece together why I asked that I didn't think

Still, how would that make me some kind of 'hard man' ?? Assuming I had any level of umpire accreditation, all it would take is a bunch of 'play on' calls, allowing the game to flow, and paying very few free kicks. It was all a bit of fun internet banter with SMY.

Team Captain
So in Morningside's opinion Palm Beach Lions are the benchmark of this competition, according to the QAFL interview.
I'd say Labrador Palm Beach in any order then daylight, throw a blanket over the rest of the teams bar Surfers & Sandgate to finish 3rd 4th n 5th, Wilston Grange n Broadbeach to be the big improvers n either or both could snag a finals spot & Surfers/Sandgate to round off the bottom two.
I reckon either Western Magpies or Mt.Gravatt could slide downwards n miss the 5 if have a bad run with injuries, good test for both coaches, either could finish 3rd or 6/7th.

It's all a bit of a guessing game until the real season starts isn't it ?
Some recruits look good on paper but sometimes don't deliver due to a variety of reasons.
The coaches and captains previews have been interesting to watch
The Gorillas open their new clubhouse/dressing rooms, and use their new lights for the first time, this Monday night v Sandgate.
The playing surface is pretty immaculate at the moment as well, so Hickey Park should now be a more attractive venue for visiting teams, and games in general.
I think we'll have a good crowd in on Monday night to kick off the season, looking forward to it.

Grange and Sandgate have been playing Anzac eve twighlight/evening games for the past couple of seasons. They are always a well attended game at both venues.

Shitter than average umpiring leads to shitter than average games where players seem to take the law into their own hands vigilante style and square ups and rough play are common place due to inadequate control from the umpire.
Peanut is just confirming he is shitter than average....
