With all this talk about the Saints leaving Moorabin, was just wondering who has the best facilities in the VFL? I'm talking gymnasium, changerooms, social club, admin etc?

No way mate . For spectators the facilities are very average with not much under cover and the away rooms are also nothing special. Yes a nice pictureseque "country style: ground but best facilities - no.

I know you are a Werribee supporter and I work at the club, but I would have to disagree about our ground being the best facility in the VFL competition.

The change rooms at Hobart are massive, while there are big areas for Social Club functions etc. A video scoreboard that would rival Telstra Domes in size isn't a bad little bonus either.
After seeing Aurora Stadium for the 1st time yesterday I agree...sensational facilities...kind of like a mini MCG...the stats room was like a corporate box..was even heated which was a real bonus...the ground surface is better than any VFL ground in Victoria... All they need now is to work out which way football is heading in Tasmania..

Having been to both Tassie grounds, there is no way anything in Victoria could compare. But: * the State Government pumps money into both facilities * Bellerieve is a Test match cricket venue and Aurora Stadium is an AFL footy venue so you'd expect the facilities to be better. Nevertheless a tick for the VFL comp to be able to use them.
