After going to the vfl this weekend and getting the usual pie,4 sausage rools,2 parsties, 6 dim sims,3 cans of coke,5 hot dogs & a pkt of salt and vinger chips. I was wondering why vfl games dont sell sushi or a nice garden salad.

I understand that the above is meant as some kind of attempt at humour, but one of the best things about the VFL is that you actually can take along a rug, spread it out on the grass, unpack the Sushi and the garden salad and actually enjoy a nice picnic at the real footy. Looked like some of the Franskton players did just that today.

A lot of clubs have salad rolls which cater for the health freaks. At least in the VFL food doesn't cost a fortune. Last time I was at Frankston the pool of fat sitting on the BBQ was enough to put me off eating for the rest of the day. So for the health conscious that's what I recommend you do at Frankston Park.

And what grounds could you do that dolphin?Williamstown possible.Box Hill sushi would roll down the Hill.Springvale get run over buy car.Tassie sushi wont stand 2 hour rd trip.Bendigo not much grass area for laying down rug.Coburg dump would not eat anything 1ft from the ground.Nth Ballarat to cold and wet.Frankston grass not near playing area.Port possible behind goels.Werribee absolute worst ground in comp for spectators.Bullants see Coburg.Sandy good.Geelong no won is welcome for vfl games.

Why would you take it so literally. The point is that you can. You cant do it at an AFL game. Frankston grass is both beside the stand, and behing the goials at the beach end. I can't beleive such a ludicrous post has had so many replies. and BTW Footyman, what do you expect to find on a BBQ when cooking sausages?

Possibly a drip tray for the fat to go onto, rather than leaving the days supply on the hotplate and continuing to cook then in an inch high pool of fat.

Apart from the above crap it was a great win to the mighty Zebras over the hated Frankston scum. Nice to see all those "expert" tipsters in the Record so WRONG.

Totally chilled. That was the point. I was surprised that others were worried about it.
