Round 10 Crows (VFL R8 Port Melb.)
Round 11 GCS (VFL R9 GCS)
Round 13 Freo (VFL R11 TAS)

3 of those clashes also being the same team the afl team plays

Surely they could have got those right at least so they didn’t overlap

Yes you are %100 spot on but we are not the AFL Darlings.
We just have to keep putting up with it I dare say.

Good news. Reported that ABC will televise VFL games on TV and radio. haven't seen it on VFL website yet - just on Facebook.

Peter Gee still around? Sadly no Ross Booth. Maybe Cleary and Kekka for special comments.

That was some good viewing back in the day.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

A few standouts yesterday. Baimert was excellent. Byrne was solid too.

Great notice you fucjers

 

[shinboner magic]

Stayed and watched the first half of the vfl
Banch , Trembath , Whitlock and Dawson were good

Whitlock had about 6-7 shots for 2-3 goals

What specifically about Dawson's play was good?

 

[shinboner magic]

What specifically about Dawson's play was good?

Took a few intercepts

 

[zoomba23]

Took a few intercepts

Ah the famed Charlie Comden/Cobden approach. Any 1 on 1s that you can recall?

 

[shinboner magic]

Ah the famed Charlie Comden/Cobden approach. Any 1 on 1s that you can recall?

Did get beaten on a 1on1 but it was a rushed kick that fell to his opponents favour

 

[shinboner magic]

Also goater played wing and was quite involved - there’s a top end player there if he stays fit
