The Kangaroos look certain to host at least one pre-season clash, in the newly named JLT Community Series, after the AFL struck a three-year deal with its insurance broker JLT Sport. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
The recent focus on community football, along with the fact that JLT is also now the insurer of all Australian Rules community football led to the competition's new title.

JLT Sport is a division of the international insurance broker Jardine Lloyd Thompson and describes itself as providing sport insurance, risk solutions and risk management. The risk insurers for the AFL and the 18 clubs along with Cricket Australia and the national swimming, hockey and harness racing bodies it has chosen to move into AFL sponsorship in a move reflecting the growing competitiveness of the insurance market.

I wonder if the insurer will allow the winning captain to hold up the cup. They wouldn't want a strained back or shoulder.

Yet another club teeing up game of senior AFL footy at their traditional venue.

Gotta get with it Saintas.

I'm with you on that Dave - can't wait for the Moorabbin redevelopment and hopefully we'll watch the Saints run out there again!

That first game is against Port Adelaide. The Saints website is wrong again.

BTW. Etihad is west of Melbourne.

Princes Park, Optus Oval, et al.

Also called Visy Park once aka Cardboard Park.

I think the best name was Corruptus Oval in honour of Mr Elliott (there was the Elliott Stand but it was renamed the Legends Stand due to his crookedness)
