I do not recall the VFL site being any good at any point.

Canberra has ideas of eventually getting into the new E-VFL but I wouldn't be stumping up my sheckles on that one.
I have no more info on this, Pear.Do you have more info on this? Do you know if it's the Demons returning (or another big club like Ainslie), or is it a joint AFL Canberra entity?
I have no more info on this, Pear.
I was up on Canberra footy while Qbn and Tuggeranong were playing but now I'm 300km away and I don't know.
I know from Canberra's comments as they waved the E-VFL thingy goodbye that they wanted to be a player in AFL matters by providing a strong pathway.
I expect that the AFL would want to encourage that, seeing as so many good players come from that area and the O&M. But that's all I know.
One game per round will be televised live on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon on Channel Seven.Does anyone know once the VFL does start up, if any games will be on tv and which channels will have it or only some games not all will be on tv this year ?
Source?The Round 1 Channel Seven telecast game is:
Box Hill Hawks v Casey Demons, Box Hill City Oval, Sunday 12.05pm
This will lead into their coverage of the Hawthorn v Melbourne AFL game which starts at 3.20pm.
Educated guess. The Foxtel EPG lists a TBA timeslot block between 12.00pm - 2.30pm for Channel Seven on that date.Source?
I was thinking the Port Melbourne v Aspley match appears to be a mouthwatering clash for FTAWith Port Melbourne and Essendon both playing away in Brisbane (at this stage) you'd hope there would be a telecast via YouTube. And hope they try harder with the coverage than they have for the VFLW, which has been pretty dire.
Where is the fixture? Anyone for a link?
They don't want too many games held on the MCG, in this scenario the VFL could be at Victoria Park on the morning of the game.If we play Essendon at MCG in day on a Saturday they should also have both our reserves playing at the G before it too.
Which is exactly why I say it should only be for the day games.They don't want too many games held on the MCG,
My first browse of fixture and one thing I like. They finally got reserves draw more aligned with whom AFL team playing now. If we playing Geelong in AFL we also play Geelong in this comp too. About bloody time.
Next step is to get day games in Victoria have a curtain raiser before it of your reserves side.
If we play Essendon at MCG in day on a Saturday they should also have both our reserves playing at the G before it too.
There been about one or two and they start so much earlier than they should that hardly anybody is there that early. These curtain raisers should not be ending an hour before seniors. Curtain raisers have not been programmed often at all. If people start to know all day games have a curtain raiser and it not a massive gap between end of it and start of senior game it will be ideal.I find the curtain raisers, especially at Marvel, completely soulless.

This.
Twilight game (starting at 3.20) start the VFL game at 1.20. Finish it 15-20 minutes beforehand. At least then those who get in a bit early for the game will catch the last quarter.
It's a really selfish point of view, and I doubt if you could put it more selfishly than that if you tried. Let's ruin VFL fans enjoyment of attending games at Princes Park, Punt Road, Victoria Park, Whitten Oval etc so AFL fans 'who get in a bit early can catch the last quarter' of a match they don't care about.
Suburban footy has a sizeable traditionalist fanbase. It has a culture untouched by the corporate marketing machine of the AFL. It keeps footy in touch with communities, and local economies, and it keeps alive the heritage of of the game. Some people won't be happy until that is all crushed for no other reason than to provide added value to AFL fans who look down their noses at it.
Yeh, doesn’t need to be every week, do it once or twice a year.It's a really selfish point of view, and I doubt if you could put it more selfishly than that if you tried.
