What's going on with the TV schedule for Sandy. They are on channel 7 only once this year (against Casey on Saturday May 9) and that's it. Sandy played finals last year so you would think they would get a few TV games. I like seeing the next group trying out for senior positions.

To My understanding Ch 7 are doing the same as the ABC did- and only locking in broadcast games in 6 week blocks.
on VFL website they only note the first month of broadcasts

Okay thank SB. I was going by the Sandy fixture with only the round 4 game highlighted as the TV game. Going in 6 weeks blocks is okay then because if Sandy win a few we may see them on the telly:

And guess what those sides have in common? They are proper sides, not this combined rubbish. The sooner it finishes the better. And the sooner the develop squad is axed it will be better again. Wrecking local footy. And im unsure anyone can see we have the best kids. Even if we have they may want the best sides or the best ratings. I reckon combined sides are like kissing your sister.

Yep the development squad has to go its rubbish and all you get is young kids coming back with inflated egos and wanting a big pay check.

And I thought you were involved local footy. Obviously not anymore. I think one day I need to explain how bad it is for local footy and how there is now about 7 sides who don't even have the development squad. We wont in 2 years. Half the guys who play it play in another comp every second or third week so they basically don't even care how the side goes except on game day.

I agreed with you FFS. Its crap and the standard at times is poor due to no one wanting to play as there is no money in it . The young blokes that do go down think they have now become superstars and want big money to come back.

I am sorry read it wrongly. Thought you were being sarcastic. We had the same problem. Had 4 of our players playing there and came back after injury or a bye. We are in the ammos so there is no money. They have all left now to play for money. If there was no development league they would have stayed with us and wouldn't have cared about money. Get rid of it. Surely once all vic AFL clubs have their own side it will have to go.

The other situation it has created is players come back in the bye and there home team has a win the next week they dont and are beaten. It effects the outcomes of so many games and teams miss or make the finals as a result.
