I know it was a bit of a financial black hole but geeez… the whole dump the AFL reserves and merge it with the VFL has absolutely stunk up the fun of footy in general.

A) we lost the curtain raiser which was a great reason to get to games early and afforded the opportunity more readily to watch the kids
B) Development has suffered for the have nots
C) Stunk up the VFL - used to be a great comp with those teams having their own proud history… now they’re all lesser than

I wish we could all just go back to the way things were. Fix this all up for good

Totally agree, the curtain raised should return and do away with all the the lights and music show.

Not sure they want to double the amount of games on grounds

I reckon they want to protect the surfaces!

Indeed. With 10 teams split between two venues, you’d be effectively making it 20 teams on two venues.

With that said, I wish we went chips in on a standalone St Kilda team at Moorabbin.

If Footscray can do it, surely we can. It works brilliantly for them and had helped rebuild the soul of the club, all whilst being a perfect development tool for their AFL club. A massive win-win.

Games at RSEA Park have a nice community feel to them. A Sandy game there on a Sunday afternoon would be popular and whilst I like the location of the Sandy ground near the bay the weather conditions at Moorabbin would be much better.

Sandy is windy as fk

Particularly in the afternoon after 3-4pm

Rarely do you get good conditions there, and the ground is too tight.

Parking is a prick too

The developers have been trying for years to get their hands on that parcel of land.

One would hope that Saint Nic has a special hot place in hell reserved just especially for developers,
