So 12 from our AFL list. We've still come up with a very decent looking side despite getting a heap more injuries in recent times. It looks like 15 from the Cats' (AFL) list. Should be an interesting game.

We'll only put 11 on the park. Someone will be either held over or only play a half.

would this be the strongest VFL side we've put out for the year?

plenty of AFL experience in there.

 

[Mkcaptain]

Great to see Cal Matheson back into the squad. A quality player

 

[MagpieBat]

Not really. That honour would probably go to the team that went down to Port Melbourne in Round 1, at least in terms of AFL numbers (15). The teams that ran out against North Ballarat and Frankston would also have been up there as well...

 

[jackcass]

Really looking forward to getting along to this game. Been a bit of a struggle to get to the VFL this season, only my 4th game. Thank God we've been better served by the TV coverage in 2016.

Yeah, have to agree, its a very strong side

same travel time, if u live in frankston it will only take 12 mins to get to cranny staish

 

[Mkcaptain]

A big test today. Our first tough match in about a month. Two hours minus travel/eating is a lot of time to kill between games though

 

[TradeDraft]

On South Morang train now

[Bad Horse]

Thanks for keeping us up to date Bat.

Feel like this is going to be a bad one for us, partly because we are due a loss, partly I think our opponents look stronger and more talented on paper.
