VAFA General Discussion

[bedford]

FWIW new vafa president creating a big footy account and the Herald Sun doing a write up on Div1-Div4 recruits, what other nuggets does 2024 have in store? Bedford as the new mod?

Happy to accept fwiw

Big Congrats to the Glen Eira women's team. Back to back flags and one loss in two years.

Congrats a great effort to go back to back, do they go up to the premier divisions ?

 

[bedford]

Good effort by the Ormond girls in the 1st season , sadly going down to St Mary's in extra time
Only issue was one umpires obsession with holding the ball

 

[GerryG]

Live scores down

I hear supercoach W might be off to a higher level , but the girls can't get promoted out of D1

The team went through undefeated, good luck to the VAFA convincing the rest of the Div 1 teams that GE shouldn't go up.

Makes a joke of promotion and relegation

Back to admission prices
Yesterday at Box Hill the VFL finals entry board was up $15 AND $10 concession , VAFA 17 and 12 what a rip off

Lines weren't marked at Moorleigh Reserve for the Women's GF on Saturday either. Plus only a coffee van for a canteen.

You couldn't see them at all like one umps eyesight
The farce of charging admission at a public park where there were at least 3 or 4 ways in and an hour wait for coffee.
Why the Moorabbin CC didn't open their canteen is mindboggling , seeing they were there
A tick for girls footy as it was a massive crowd for both games

Like most cricket clubs, they probably haven't got access to their rooms and facilities until end of September ????

I know

They were using them and no based footy club there

Noticed that the Premier C preliminary final between AJAX and Parkdale Vultures will be played on Sunday, like last year. Interesting to see if whoever wins the preliminary final will cop a 6 day break like what Hampton Rovers had to deal with last year, where after defeating Parkdale on the Sunday at EP, they had to play the grand final on the Saturday against Old Carey at TBO and got thrashed by the Panthers.

The 6 day break didn't affect Old Scotch too much last year as they won the A grade grand final after playing the preliminary final on the Saturday and then the grand final on the following Friday.

You need to stop playing that violin Jase. You were beaten by the better side. You also played at your home ground for the season. The six day break would not have changed the result and has been common in the VAFA for many years

 

[localfootylegend23]

Yep, 6 or 7 day breaks at local level are pretty much the same, lets be honest, not elite footballers here, a bit of recovery post match and you would be good to go

Yep great effort. Too good for my mob who tried very hard and lost no friends. Not sure Moorleigh is a suitable finals venue....

It's not , when some pay and others don't
Why not use Elsternwick 2 for the girls , why do they have to charge for every final

Stiff sh!t.
