Probably one of the biggest days in the club's history. A win today means we're in. If GWS lose then we'll be locked in by half-time. And if certain results go our way in the next two rounds, there's even a chance of a home final.
Justin Davies plays his first game of the year today. I'm keen to see how he's developed with a full year of local footy under his belt. With Gown out injured, I think his performance is going to be vital.
Also a quick shoutout to our Division 3 women's team winning the flag yesterday. It was a special day for the club to not only win a premiership on our home deck, but to also have the VFL boys in attendance and forming a cheer squad with the Div 1 girls. It was a great unifying moment. Now just have to hope the men's team gets up to close out the weekend.
Frankston go down by 27 points in our final home and away game of the year.
Thanks to Brisbane doing the job on GWS, we're locked in for finals. Now it's just a matter of waiting an extra round to see who we're playing. Unfortunately there's a strong possibility we travel up to Queensland for the wildcard, which will be unfortunate. Id rather our first final since 2008 be played in Victoria, but at least we'll be there.
It's a very tough ask for the standalones to travel up to QLD.
To win would be one of the greatest wins in the cluba recent history.
