Sorry but this is not good enough by AFL Victoria. A fixture should have been set way back in December. The Girls start next week and don't have a fixture? C'mon.....

That is absolutely disgraceful. It is late on a Friday and no fixtures for a comp that starts next weekend.

Presumably somebody gets paid to run the VFLW competition, may i ask what the f##k have they been doing the last six months? they know the teams, they know the length of the season, they know the grounds on which matches are to be played, so why the inordinate delay?Bizarre ...

I just see on Twitter Jamie Shaw is 55yo, amazing, seems just like yesterday he was clunking grabs in those big mitts and booting goals, happy birthday Spider

Tasmania submitted their proposal for an AFL team to McLauchlan 12 months ago with no reply so far, so  the Tasmanian Premier had to threaten to remove funding to North and Hawthorn and blow up in a newspaper article just to get a response from him.

Even by the AFL's dismal standards this is very poor.

I'm not all that interested either digs, but its just indicative of the calibre of the people running the show at the AFL who are on big bucks I would imagine and wouldn't even be capable of even running a chook raffle properly
