Re: West Gippy Latrobe (Part 2)
Is that a good ground, or a paddock with a fence a shed as rooms and tree stumps as goal posts???

Re: West Gippy Latrobe (Part 2)
From memory, it's a bit of a weird ground cut into a hill, so it's basically uphill in every direction from the boundary. Been about 15 years since the last time I saw it though.

From memory most grounds run away from the middle for drainage purposes.....

Tis a great ground. Played there a few years myself. Excellent viewing for the public and pretty good changerooms and social club to boot. Always has a good surface.

What???
Are you ******ed!!!
What sort of ground is uphill from the boundary??? Most grounds run from the centre outwards which is what i said.
I hope that is what you are implying.

Yallourn Nth is a great ground to play footy on. Surface is usually in top condition. If you want to see some shit grounds try Mirboo Nth or Hill End. You can nearly abseil from one wing to the other!!!

Re: West Gippy Latrobe (Part 2)
I think he means that the ground is probably normal on the actual playing surface, but beyond the fence it goes up hill on all sides creating an amphitheatre effect which is good for viewing.
I would love to se a ground with the low point in the middle though, would make for tough centre clearance work on the wet days!!!

Re: West Gippy Latrobe (Part 2)
Generally mate (stinger) when you say the playing surface to the outer indicates from the middle of the ground to the boundary line...
Thanks for clearing that up return of the pies, you wrote the right explanation of what was trying to be said.
Returning to more intellectual chat, I have it on good word that sale have recruited heavily (as outlined by ultimate warrior and others) and will be looking at pressing into finals action. There core group has definately been strengthened and may only be lacking a ruckman to make a hard push up the ladder....

Re: West Gippy Latrobe (Part 2)
sale are going to surprise a lot of people this year. they are rallying a good bunch of guys down there in sale. young and exciting talent that may still be raw but will definately give a few sides a shake up this year.
im predicting top 4 finish!!

Re: West Gippy Latrobe (Part 2)
I defiantly agree mate, rumor has it that sale is looking very fit and strong this year under nick anderson. they will be a lot more competitive this year and will surprise a lot of people.
