How?

How?

By putting together 22 players and giving them Giants guernseys, or at least usually that's how it works.

This is great for us.

I don't doubt it. But what are the main advantages. Is it both better competition, and players from Vic will get to see more of their Victorian based family and friends.

What else do you want?

What else do you want?

Nothing else, just wondering if this was why it is good.

I imagine we’ll also save some money.

in the past, while our seniors were playing in Melbourne, our reserves were likely to be in Brisbane or Canberra or Wagga or Darwin - along with medicos and runners and support staff and flights and hotels to be organised and paid for in 2 cities.

be beyond stupid if they didn’t somewhat align the games - if not curtain raisers then at least the same city on the same weekend.

from a logistical point of view alone (let alone the better quality opposition) it’s a good move.

Too true. Just won't let us win, though.
