Admission to Victoria Park for VFL games is free to everyone. No fencing, so no gate to pay to get into...

Back when they charged for you to get in for the VFL in 2010 and 2011, I think Collingwood members got in free regardless, if I recall correctly...

Yeah, free admission to Collingwood home games if you produced your membership.

But now, just everybody rock up,

Collingwood
B: Russell Gault Oxley
HB: Clarke Frost Johnson
C: Didak J. Thomas Young
HF: Mooney MacAffer Kennedy
F: Fasolo Witts Krakouer
R: Hudson Martin D. Thomas
Int: Moloney Gray Hellier Yagmoor Paine Ramsay Ferguson Riddle Corr Allan Collopy* Hine Richmond

Good to see a few players starting to return. Didak & Fasolo get a run, Daisy & Krak get another hit out. Gault finally available. Really optimistic about the 2013 VFL fortunes.

Obviously 4 players from the squad listed slot straight into the senior side for Sunday but still a very good squad.

I hope Josh thomas plays seniors

Best VFL side we have had

MagpieBat · Post by **MagpieBat** » Fri Apr 05, 2013 3:39 pm

Team looks a tad too tall for mine. All of Gault, Frost (if he goes out of the seniors), Paine, Witts, Richmond, Hudson, plus Riddle from the VFL list.

Need to make sure we play that 23rd man and pack the bench full of runners to offset the extra tall timber... #yepthishobbyhorseagain

Hope Kennedy Plays in VFL and not hold over IF he is not playing going to play in AFL

Russell, Clarke, Johnson & Macaffer into the seniors barring any late changes. Effectively Shaw & Seedsman in for Thomas & Frost.

^ Yep.

Still a pretty reasonable side, though, with all that AFL experience of Didak/Krakouer/Thomas/Young/Hudson.

Pies by 15 points, I reckon...

And, for the sake of comparison, the other side:

North Ballarat
B: C. Delaney L. Delaney Hoy
HB: Wilkins Searl Warren
C: Jacobs Clifton Austin
HF: Curran Driscoll Nicholls
F: Richardson Black Garner
R: Mabon Sewell George
Int: Keeble Anthony Kiel Rippon* Darmody Linke Schache McKenzie Giampaolo Cook Cunnington
