A sad day for Ormond and Rovers with Brendan Robbins passing away after a 10 year battle with skin cancer.

How bad must Brunswick be ?

How big is next week's game between Ormond and Hampton Rovers?

Huge-and here's the reason why.

The minor premiership is up for grabs in both Reserves and Seniors games, and also seeing that both teams meet again in the second semifinal, a win would be a hug psychological boost heading into the finals.

Also, Oakleigh must beat Therry to hold onto fourth and then the two sides would meet again in an elimination final.

I would think a few sore players would be rested. Ormond played with 16 most of the last quarter , still can't believe NOBS didn't kick a goal. Once again no Goal or Boundary umps , where are they , probably doing woman's finals .

No live scores from Therry yesterday , ordinary effort.

Lol, mate, we were the first club using live scores in Division 2 five years ago - we miss one game on Saturday and it's an "ordinary effort"?

Pretty sure we're also one of few clubs that have live scores for our reserves too.

Something worth drawing attention to when you complete the comprehensive survey the VAFA is undertaking, Bedders.

I will back GI up , not good enough at this stage of the season.

Women’s Finals were on Sunday. Find something else to blame.

Rovers have the senior minor premiership sewn up. They are 1 game + about 45% clear of Ormond - So the game has very minor repercussions. Ormond can't lose 2nd spot either, so they may as well both field their 3rds & save it for the 2nd semi the week after

Touched a nerve did it coach?

Not sure whether Bedford's remark has any legs but somehow think the average flag waver is capable of doing a game on two consecutive days in any event. Even a largish, out of condition, hireshute flag waver of by-gone days could do that and be graded above not embarrassing.

The SFL flag wavers do two matches a day - some three - week-in-week-out.

The VAFA affiliation fees are not cheap and the last time I looked at an Annual Report over 60% of the VAFA revenue went into umpiring. So I reckon it's reasonable for all divisions to expect to get a set of umpires for their seniors at least for the majority of games.

I hope all the punters get hold of the VAFA's online survey in order to provide feedback. The VAFA movers-n-shakers should be congratulated on that initiative.

Nerves are all shot.

Just clarifying that all Women's finals from Preliminary Finals onwards are on a Sunday, so this should not be a reason for there being a lack of Umpires on a Saturday.

Maybe its more to do with what the weather that was predicted.
