On the Saturday
Was leaked last night but removed because not finalised pending one more decision, being there is a game at Mooroopna week 1 and they want to confirm that will be under lights.
Only other thing I remember with certainty was the prelim and GF were at Deakin but no surprises there.

If he did he would only be a one point player I believe.Hypothetically could he return to Ky in the next 2 years

Soft tissue injuries might not cease even if he was playing at a lower standard and constant calf injuries are a sign the body is struggling. He would probably find a place in the AFL industry one would think ... What do you reckon ringo?If he did he would only be a one point player I believe.
Mate he will get a coaching gig! To respected not to! Personally can’t see him at Ky unless like a McGlynn he plays the odd game around commitmentsSoft tissue injuries might not cease even if he was playing at a lower standard and constant calf injuries are a sign the body is struggling.

Yes mate totally agree. I meant 'AFL industry' as you interpreted rather than 'AFL injury' as per original post.Mate he will get a coaching gig! To respected not to! Personally can’t see him at Ky unless like a McGlynn he plays the odd game around commitments
Finals venues
The gippy league have let the team who finishes on top get home ground advantage for their first final, how would that go in the gv
Haha not well when you have such a dominant team that doesn’t need any further advantage mate.
Fair points but I don't think we can start having GF's at the ground of the club that finished top.But it’s okay to play the prelim and granny at last year’s premiership teams ground?

I totally agree with all the points above. Deakin Reserve needs a serious update. The ground and facilities are IMO outdated. Poor viewing and generally games are marred by a blustery wind. The presentations from the Grandstand are also in need of review.I agree but let’s be honest, the rewards for finishing top and having a great season in the gv are probably the worst in any league across country vic under the current finals system and to top it off you get through to the grand final and play a team on their home deck who just happened to get a tune up in the prelim the week before. Not to mention getting to train there and be in their home rooms despite being the lower ranked team in the GF.
Despite all of this I can only imagine the uproar if Ky were to be awarded a home final in week 1 of the finals, now that would be just unfair.
The Shepparton bias on the gv board is embarrassing. I would much prefer the granny at mooroopna.

Mooroopna , Tatura , Kyabram all better than deakinI agree but let’s be honest, the rewards for finishing top and having a great season in the gv are probably the worst in any league across country vic under the current finals system and to top it off you get through to the grand final and play a team on their home deck who just happened to get a tune up in the prelim the week before.

It sounds like the AFL/MCG argument Jon.I agree but let’s be honest, the rewards for finishing top and having a great season in the gv are probably the worst in any league across country vic under the current finals system and to top it off you get through to the grand final and play a team on their home deck who just happened to get a tune up in the prelim the week before.

Imagine what you might say if Kyabram were struggling ...
Sorry Jon given you were referencing Kyabram last year and the inequality for finishing highest on the ladder and referencing Shepparton getting a Prelim there before beating Ky in the GF as well as having the luxury of training on Deakin I assumed you were talking about Kyabram. My apologies.It’s actually got nothing to do with Ky, I’ve been saying it for years. I can kind of understand the grand final being there although I think the league needs a change but I have never understood the need to play the prelim there as well. It makes no sense and is a dis advantage to the team who qualifies first for the gf.
Interested to hear how you think it is fair and reasonable to all clubs in the league to play both finals there??
