So who represents the VFL in the foxtel cup next year?

Usually the beaten preliminary finalists ladder order is judged after home and away positions. Therefore Port finishing higher would get the nod.

I disagree... I think port would have benefited this year from more games against strong opposition, and presumably some of the South Australian sides should provide a stern test.

I think it's a good opportunity for Ports development players in particular to push their case for selection against senior bodies.

The money also doesn't go astray.

They should run this comp preseason that way you might actially see sides fielding decent line ups. All Port use the Foxtel Cup for is to reward development league players with some sort of senior action as part of there development. We hold back 12-15 seniors every time.

You've got to be in it to win it Burra.
The 100k is a great incentive, whilst it might not be of any importance to Port I'm sure it was very much appreciated by Williamstown.
