I think it's so stupid that the Geelong VFL team play at the same time as the Geelong AFL team and also the same time as the Vic Metro vs Vic Country play.

Does the VFL team play at K.P next week?

If you take out the interchange bench, most of those players have been regulars in the Geelong senior side. We should win by 10+ goals if we're fair dinkem.

Disappointed to see blokes like Slade listed on the interchange bench of the VFL team. Has he been injured? I'm not his biggest fan, but if he can't get a game in the seconds, he's staring down the barrel. Obviously a few of those blokes will play in the senior team, but surely Varcoe, Grima, Gamble and Owen should be given time to start on the ground and develop naturally.

I can't see how they're going to prosper (assumnig they are all fit of course) with limited game time or 'burst roles'.

Will is only on listed on the interchange because there are some players who are playing in the snr team listed in this VFL team. Sladey should start on the field in the backline. It sucks for him coz he is restricted to the VFL unless someone from the snr team gets put on the extended injury list. I rekon he would be getting a game above Callan but thats my bias oppinion. lol I think he will be promoted next year... well I'm REALLY hoping! Fingers crossed!

He was injured last round, maybe he has not recovered fully and they are just being safe.....hopefully he gets game time.

They go game by game, team by team. We were later to finish than some of the other games and so we ended up last on, and they usually put the home team up first.

Did anybody watch the game? How did Ricco go?

Despite the AFL game being on, did anyone see the game? If so, did Playfair do much?

Played a good game in bad conditions and Riccardi got through (on limited game time ) and had a bit of it also.
