Re: Western Region Football League team
Interesting post Obe. The whole league comparison issue is one that is much debated. this is my first year in WRFL Div 1 having played in the Goulburn Valley Football League prior to that. The GV has big grounds, the facilities are top notch and the footy is of a good standard.
Main difference is the ground size, smaller grounds in the WRFL, lead to more packs; so the footy looks a lot more scrappier.
My personal opinion is that a GV interleague side would whip a WRFL rep team on a country ground, they would still win on a metro ground however the result would not be as one sided.
