For those interested Victorian state squad is training at North Port Oval from 6pm
Plenty of ball-winners there and decent scoring avenues.
Looking at the stats etc, the clubs with no reps don't have any VFL-listed players good enough.
Beautiful night for training here at North Port Oval. VFL Squad now due on the track at 6:30
If my health was a lot better I may have attended the VFL v SANFL match, but it looks like I'll be watching it on tv, hoping that there has been enough preparation by the Vics to defeat the Croweaters. It could be like last year in WA --- rush in last minute and expect to win.
I doubt if I'll get to Darley v NBC or Carngham Linton v Dunnstown.
The boys trained well tonight. Expecting an announcement on captain, vice captain and 3 emergencies by 9pm.
SANFL squad will have a run on North Port Oval from around 2:30pm tomorrow.
Sam Pleming named Captain
Ben Jolley named Vice Captain
