Just for discussion, which club has the best facilities.... Berrigan must be right up there,,, having good change rooms(recently renovated),great social clubroom facility, good weather shelter construction catering for the wet days, plenty of parking area and a big oval that has a great playing surface that has good drainage ,,( has to be a lot of rain to make this surface a mud heap.)
yeah they have good facilities but the ground is pretty ordinary
. Blighty and Jerilderie would have to be up there with most boxes ticked, though Jerilderies ground is smaller than the other two. But it would have to be the best surface and it has the abilty to handle large amounts of rain (2010GF). Strathys ground was picture perfect on grand final day last year from my viewing spot as well.
Blightys ground isn't good. Rough always dry and the sand pit in the middle is shocking . Berrigan ticks most boxes. Deni would fit the most people in and would also get the biggest crowd as the finals gates in the past have shown. With 1U gone and picolas ground upgraded we are pretty lucky as a league to have so many good grounds to play on.Spot on about Berrigan stuyd1
Deni is by far the largest and fits the most people in. hows the grass growing on it Mac ? i suppose you dont run to many laps around it now.
you be able to run an extra lap at your new home ground to make up for it .
The grass is looking good. It will be spot on this year I would imagine. It's been 2 years now since the last upgrade so it should be good. It is a good surface and I like not having the cricket pitch in the centre square. But yes the laps at jerildere are a bit easier these days .Deni is by far the largest and fits the most people in. hows the grass growing on it Mac ? i suppose you dont run to many laps around it now.
Well I hope your better at maths then Dogs cause instead of doing 1 lap at Deni for your 3k time trial you'll prob have to do 6 at Jerilderie.... Can you count that high for a big man??

This is Mac we're talking about. He'll be running.... He wouldn't miss the chance to tell us he has halved his lap times, doubled the number of laps he can run.....Easy to count when you are standing in the middle watching other blokes do it.

Sorry stuyd1 , was refering to Deni Rovers home ground which is located at Memorial Park, down near the showgrounds and golf club. You could park the Queen Mary 2 on it.

I thought you knew Charles Mac's identity Never to old. You might have me confused with someone else. And WILTY its been a long time since i knocked any time off my laps.Easy to count when you are standing in the middle watching other blokes do it.
Yeah I know Mac but that was on the rovers lap. Have you timed yourself for a Jerilderie lap yet? The maths would indicate you should be quicker but I haven't taken age variance into account...
I don't think Vallender will play at this stage. Rumor around is that he has re injured the knee he had recoed last year.
No time trials yet WILTY, just ball work and other fitness stuff. I will say thah the ground is an absolute pleasure to train on. It was like a golf green last night. Makes for a good change to the last 2 preseasons.Yeah I know Mac but that was on the rovers lap. Have you timed yourself for a Jerilderie lap yet?

Do you have goal posts Mac?
Yer Stu posts up each end. Might be able to start some goal kicking before round 1
Goal kicking before round 1? I didn't know that was possible...
