Questions for RFC_Official re VFL

[TheLoungeLizard]

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.

So we can't play any games at Punt Road until the JDS is ready for people to sit in?
Surely we could just have a lower crowd until then as the option?

Who's fault is this? Too many RDO's for the tradies?

No doubt the tradies are over quoting too. Builders always do it for the government coz they know they will pay it. Wouldn't be any different for a big footy club I wouldn't have thought

Not the tradies fault, we've been very unlucky with extreme weather at the beginning of the build (4 40 degree days in a row where they basically couldn't work) and a lot of rain lately.

Coburg has half their stand shut off so nobody can go there, why can't we do something similar?

Anyway, if we're not playing there, then where? Cragieburn?

 

[bigange]

I really don't get what they wouldn't allow us to play at PRO, even if the JDS is not ready for use.

 

[Bojangles17]

You re bloody joking , I can see it now, will be ready by September

Williamstown and as a result it is no longer the TV game.

We do get VFL radio for the game now. #brightside

Is Punt Rd going to be ready for this weeks game?

 

[bigange]

Hope so. I'd love a double header - though two beatings in a day won't be that fun.

Is Punt Rd going to be ready for this weeks game?

Confirmed, yes!

Does the club plan to install a permanent scoreboard at the ground? RFC_Official

 

[_DBF_]

Also any chance of getting a stats sheet after VFL games?

 

[RFC_Official]

Does the club plan to install a permanent scoreboard at the ground? RFC_Official

Yep, it's on its way.

 

[bigange]

Yeah the lack of a scoreboard was annoying at the ground today, especially as we were winning

Does not matter. Question we may have to start asking is how we book VFL final tickets

There was a small scoreboard on the hill, but it was small and you couldn't see it when it was sunny.
Darn council permits are holding the scoreboard up. It's been purchased already.

On the Punt Rd side? That was just showing advertising for something everytime I looked. I;m talking to the left of old scoreboard near cnr Brunton Ave and Punt Rd intersection, if looking from the JDS.

No biggie.

Yep, so am I. There was a scoreboard there throughout the whole game, because I was looking at it all game. It definitely was on and showing the score.

The full scoreboard will go over in that area.

 

[bigange]

Thanks.

My dodgy eyesight perhaps...haha!

Anyone interested in going to watch training on Tuesday? Not sure if many people go along on a regular night.

It's a shortish sharp session and only the 10-15 VFL listed players do train. I don't think we've had anyone turn up all year!

RFC_Official, are you able to tell me what the situation will be with the Dreamtime curtain raiser between our VFL sides at Punt Road this coming Saturday?

A Richmond fan I know suggested it might be worth looking into getting tickets in advance because of capacity issues. Do you know what the state of play is, please?
