I wonder what the fully comprehensive v.f.l report will be about in Mondays Hearld/Sun.Perhaps it will be about the battle between 2 stand alone clubs Frankston V Tassie,or the battle between 2 top 8 clubs Port V bullants. I just carnt wait to get the wrap up of round11,OH wait a minute i hear some injured Collingwood player is playing for Williamstown he will probley only play 1/4 but you can bet your Mother, the whole v.f.l report will be about Nathen Buckley,not to mention other reports in the paper.I dare say that the so called reporter has already written the article and will just fill in the blanks on Sunday night.Just out of curiousity i wonder how much press Tassie,Nth Ballarat and Frankston get with no a.f.l players to write about. oh well only 3 more sleeps to round 11 of Nathen Buckley football(I MEAN V.F.L FOOTBALL)

You are forgetting Angelo Lekkas! He will be the other half of the report :D Seriously, its about the only way the VFL will get increased coverage... Hopefully those people that do go along see a quality game of footy and continue to get along to the games.... No hope I know!

I have to say that The Age report on the Bullants v Frankston draw was a good one (finally).

Someone on 3AW tonight said something about the game being a sellout. This is not the freaking Telstra Dome! :roll:

With the huge amount of media hype about Buckley and Lekkas' return, I am very interested to see what kind of crowd turn up for this game. I think they could draw around 5000 to the game which would be the biggest Victorian VFL crowd for a H&A game for some time.

Unfortunatley the AFL owns the media in this town and the poor relation the VFL is lucky to get a sniff in..which is wrong ....but seems to be a fact of life. At least Buckley and Lekkas put the VFL competition in the 'lime light' even if its for a brief moment. maybe all the attention may attract a larger viewing audince to the ABC game at frankston tomorrow (and crowd) which will be a beauty between the Dolphins and the Devils

Just what Box Hill need... Hopefully it rains all day and Box Hill's inadequate facilites are stretched to the limit. And if they make the finals, Gannon will use this game as an example for why Box Hill get a home final.

I have to commend the Herald-Sun, on a more evenly balanced VFL article today. VFL listed players getting media space, and the games result and details much improved.
