2014 draw

Post by jackcass »

I haven't seen an official release of the 2014 draw but clearly someone knows something. From todays Bendigo Advertiser:

"And the biggest club in the country, Collingwood, will venture back to Bendigo for a final round clash on Friday, August 22."

Bendigo at Bendigo in the final round? Nice soft outing a week before the finals, you would think.

And a chance for Bendigo Magpies to get a look at the reserve boys up close.

It's obvious what the VFL is doing: they want Bendigo to be viable, so they're fixturing all the AFL clubs at QEO. Fair enough. The VFL apple doesn't fall far from the AFL tree at all... :wink:

And to answer the question, the VFL draw will be released midway through next week, according to the VFL's Twitter page.
