So we have to cart round an app on our phone to know who the players are? Doesn't work for me, my battery is crap and will invariably run out.....and maybe I'm a bit old school and just like the feel of paper in my hand. So I made up a template for a weekly team/score sheet......here's the Frankston - Werribee game for this weekend, but it's easily customisable for any game. Let me know if you'd like a copy for your team's game on the weekend.

Great work AJ, if possible could you do up a Port Melbourne one? 

Agree 100% you need a piece of paper (if the footy record is no longer possible).

Surely the clubs could sunlit a few news articles that could be put together and printed at each ground into a basic footy record. Surely it's not that hard.

I'm with you aj9172. I am old school too. Buying a VFA recorder with team lists of all clubs was the way to go. 

Think I will print out teams lists for the games I will attend. Wont be checking phone for players names.

Thanks AJ, very thoughtful and helpful. You would think something similar would be available on the AFL/VFL website that we could download each week...

BTW I printed the image above and it came out perfectly, fitted the page fully and I had no trouble reading it.

Ah that’s great Bearsman, happy to help. Relieved it printed ok because in image format like that some people have had trouble before. I’m gonna input all the team lists so it will be an easy cut and paste job for any game this season. If the AFL won’t do it for us we can always do it ourselves :)

Ok, I've run into a problem doing the Giants - Borough game.......AFL clubs have 70-odd possibles each week, so fitting the entire list on an A4 page is nigh on impossible. I'll work it up once the actual sides have been announced, so keep your eye out, I will definitely get it done.

Even if you just do a Port Melbourne one.. The odds of a GWS supporter jumping on here are slim to none :)

More chance of finding a Brighton penguins vfa supporter from the 1950s than a gws supporter LOL.

I would.  I see the teams are only going up on the day of the match - On the VFL (AFL) site anyway.

FWIW, Port has selected its side as:
