Scotch? Terrible in the centre and they don't even have a full 50 metre line.

Scotch definately dont have the best ground, the middle is a mud heap and its a very small ground with only 40m arcs. the best ground in the APS would be careys. its biggish and a very good deck.
Agreed

yeah true, carey is fantastic. geelong grammar is not bad execpt for the wind factor. BRIGHTON GRAMMAR HAS TO BE THE BEST EVER. hands down
Not.

last night i spoke with a man whos been involved in school footy for decades and he recons that the carey ground is absolutely crap on a wet day. he said it was the worst aps ground in the wet. i quite like it tho.
The fact that the APS side are playing on the Carey oval is a pretty good indication of how good it is.
Drainage is an issue, although according to the Ammos they've taken steps to improve that.

yeah it can turn to shit after rain but doesnt last that long, in decent condition at the moment, not the best ive seen it tho. should be a top venue for the aps v ags game
yeh the ground has terrible drainage.. stayed wet the whole game and probably didnt dry that whole day i was there... wheelers hill oval however has very good drainage and drys pretty much within 5 mints of playing but gets ripped up very easily. carey ground is in better condish but drainage is an issue

Carey may have a good ground... But they never win any football on it so it really doesn't help them. Xavier rarely lose on their ground and use it well, so it's probably the best ground in the APS/ it's an aths track now already which is bullshit.
mm ur right xavier is a quality ground, just a pity its not actually shaped like a football ground...

This is true. Carey will need at least 100% of their team on scholarships to lift themselves off the bottom of the ladder next year and if they do that they will be even more of a joke.

i would have to agree with thatthe MCG for MGS v Scotch
i think ull find they won the most APS premierships out of any of the schools last year. i think some were dud sports, but the cheque book pulled through in their aths win.
you are looking an even bigger chance to not win any of these,
