I said 90% knob, also Nth Balwyn would take Strathmore to the cleaners if we are basing this upon reputation. 13 ex AFL listed players.

Don't know about Nth Balwyn, but the Mores are playing Balwyn in a practice match so should be interesting.

A Grade start - 21/4/07 Round 2. Round 1 to be played Queens Birthday weekend.
B Grade start - 28/4/07 Round 3. Round 1 to be played Queens Birthday weekend.
Juniors - All Divisions start 6 May.
Some grounds will be closed and therefore some swapping of games.
Decision pretty much made based on ground availablity as determined by councils. Not much anyone can do unless they have a big watering can.

Cheers for the info NR
So will "B" grade be playing an extra game to make up for round 2 or just shorten their season by a week?
What the hell will one week do?? This is rediculous!
This should be a cracker of a game, any details where and when mate?
Unfortunately 9 times out of ten it is the bottom seven in a side which makes or breaks a team
Agree Bomber, are they expecting a f**cking tsunami in those two weeks the grounds are going too pretty much stay the same no matter what happens and if we do get a little rain most grounds are going to become ice skating rinks (especially the grounds with turf wickets) because it will just sit on top.
This will cause more injuries than planning on dry grounds.

Yeah your spot on mate, I cant comment enough on the bottom 7-10 players within the senior group I can only pass judgement on the blokes I know more of, as I suppose the more senior players introduce them selves and you talk to more.
I think Strathmore may be playing the Balwyn side that is choc full of AFL listed players, can anyone confirm the place and date of this game, would be a highlight of the Pre-Season for most of us.

balwyn and strathmore game is on 31st of march at balwyn
not wrong about former afl listed players harford,moyle,murray,cranage,ries,morgan and baldwin just to name a few and possibly 2 more big big signings to come !
should be a very interesting contest
You would think both teams would be wrapping their big name players up in cotton wool.
If there are all these concerns about the grounds you want won't your big guns going hell for leather in a scratch match. Especially if sign on fees have been given.
I would almost gaurentee most big names in both sides will only make a cameo if they play at all.

well Agrade clubs reckon they are going to lose to much money with player contracts they made the decision the rest will have to wear it
with the new season schedule now given, that means round 1 queens birhtday weekend will see a couple of flag contenders strathmore and greenvale clash. should be a mighty clash with hopefully both teams fit and firing compared to being scratchy at week one of the season. maybe edfl could organise a sunday/monday game for them as a blockbuster for the round. any suggestions, beats watching the magpies and demons

My information is that draw will start as normal 1 week late. So round 1 will be the first game played not on Queens Birthday weekend. Otherwise you will be playing the same side twice in 2 weeks.
