Questions for RFC_Official re VFL

[nut]

@RFC_Official How many games will there be with the VFL side playing back to back with the seniors? and if so what will be the time difference between the end of the VFL and start of the AFL?

I don't think the VFL fixture has been released as yet ... sometime later this month IIRC

The home teams of VFL games decide the location/time of the games, so if we are given games at the ME Bank Centre we will play them so we can have VFL and AFL with-in a few hours. We hope to get the VFL schedule this week.

JD stand will be cleaned and reinforced with a coaches box put up there.
THere will be some temporary seating (I think).
We have a canteen on the far side of the ground (closer to the train station) and probably some sausage stands etc get up too.

In year one, don't think so.

Who knows down the track, would be nice.

So will we be using those old benches in the JD stand ? Or new ones ?

Painted at least ?

and RFC_Official will there be a press release on exactly what is going to be done around the ground ?

Not sure about specifics on JDS. We will have more info when the work actually begins.

VFL clash guernsey was available pre-season for pre-order and I think we have some left over in the store, or they're due to arrive next week.

Anything new on the JDS?

It won't be ready for the first VFL home game this week now, which is disappointing but we move on.

That's a shame, when do you think it could be ready?

When will it be ready ? and what exactly is bring done to the stand?

Well, let me re-phrase that. We believe AFL Vic will tell us today we can't have the game here, AFL Vic seem more strict than the actual AFL when it comes to the ground.
