[Jen2310]

Hey jen, do you know where this week's practice match will be

Deakin Uni, Geelong (Waurn Ponds I'm told is the only uni down there that there is a footy oval)

Thanks, I know the one

 

[Jen2310]

Thanks, I know the one

They've added Connor to the list.

They've added Connor to the list.

Our VFL list looks really strong, even without the AFL boys.
Really wish the comp had each team playing each other once for 21 rounds.
Is there a compelling reason why they can't do that?

VFL session tonight

Rehab: ford (finally running)
Woewodin - hamstring he tells me but should be back soon

Absent-
Millane

Still training :
Tosh Lennon (below)
Anthony Volta
Billy Thatcher
Oscar Lonie
James Orton (ex nga)

Speaking of Tosh, not only did he get a haircut but he shaved off his moustache he actually looks like his teenage year of 18

[Jen2310]

If we play 24-25 players again on sat for the practice game (I assume whomever gets dropped for moore will be the carry over and wont play this practice game anyway) then we'll pick 16 vfl players + 8 afl players.

Not sure if it meant anything but those in the black.

Will Phillips
Max Mahoney
Hamish Collins
Zavier Maher
Jake Watts
Michael Lewis
Oscar Lonie
Charlie Lawless
Rod Ali
Ben De Bolfo
Tadhg McCarthy
Josh Bennetts
Teakle
Xavier Laverty
Connor LeeFlang
Anthony Volta

What was interesting is Eyre trained with the mids, not the defenders.

I would guess travel requirements (cost) and the wish for stand alone VFL clubs to have home and away games against local rivals.
The AFL fixture is compromised .......no reason this VFL fixture shouldn't be the same.

It also makes sense for the 3 QLD teams and the 2 NSW teams to play each other multiple times to save them costs and the costs for the Victorian clubs travelling up there

It might make sense financially for stand alone teams but it doesn't make for a proper competition.

Awesome News

 

[Aussie pie]

I’m hoping when the broadcast from VIC park they finally do it from an elevated position. The ground level telecast from vic park has been driving me nuts and hating our home games.
How hard is it to position on top of the stand like they always did back in the 80’s and film from there. It’ll be safer than the cranes I’ve seen them in at other grounds.
