Hi guys just want to get a few opinions on this. I live in Bendigo and bought a membershipo this season. I found it hard as obviously it has been more Like an Essendon reserves team than a Bendigo team. I know next season will be different with a Bendigo Bombers reserves team as that will give the Bombers more of a Bendigo feel. Do you guys think Bendigo Bombers will survive as I am worried that the players are more worried about getting their stats than about the team winning.

Yeah, I think that should definitely happen - at least for home games!

I agree that Bendigo should wear distinctive "local" jumper. Pity that VFL administration cannot see the heavy AFL reserves conotation particularly highlighted by Box Hill Hawks nee Mustangs. It doesn't help with AFL coaches and commentators constantly refering to the VFL team as either the reserves or the seconds with the only Senior players being those from the AFL sides. Cobrascorer
