GEELONG Falcons not picked up in the AFL draft - the Werribee Tigers want you!

This is the message the VFL club is pushing in the Geelong region, stepping up its claim as the key local pathway back to the AFL.

Werribee has launched a bid to have its TAC Cup feeder-club, the Falcons, play several curtain-raisers before home games next year.

Throughout the pre-season, the Tigers will also hold one of their tri-weekly training sessions at Little River, with Geelong-based players allowed to spend another session locally with the Falcons.

The club will also advertise to support its campaign.

Werribee's lure is its presence in both the VFL senior and reserve competitions, while it maintains only a part-time allegiance with an AFL club.
