Collingwood by 2 points.

Can we get up for what shapes as our final run around on the hallowed surroundings of Victoria Park...?

COME ON PIES!
Wont we be playing at Vic Park next year?! Have I missed something?
BTW, - what the hell happened to the main electronic scoreboard yesterday??!

yes we will. the reference was this season's last outing there.

of late, the scoreboard has not been functioning as it should be. it gets turned off when a problem occurs.

Footscray hung on by 4 points against Werribee, we have now finished 6th and will play Werribee next week, most likely next Sunday.

Day and time still to be officially confirmed yet though...

Has been confirmed by Channel 7 that this game will be at North Port Oval (that's in Port Melbourne, for those who aren't aware or don't use the Internet)...

If we finished sixth why not a home game at Vic Park?

Pity that the AFL and VFL seasons aren't aligned so we could strengthen our team for finals.

Hopefully Cloke can recover in time so White can drop back to the VFL.

Hey MB why do you think our final will be on the Sunday? That would mean it clashes with our 3.20pm AFL game. I hope somehow they schedule it for 11.30 but I doubt it. I hope we don't rest anyone, Cloke plays seniors and Still comes back in. I will be going to our final first and foremost. But I'd like to go to both.

I believe our game against Werribee will be announced as soon as the Box Hill vs Willy game finishes in next half hour.

Very Strong Chance. CH7 would like the last Regular Sunday Afternoon be a Pies Afternoon

Hey Dave would you be going to both games if the VFL is on at 11.40am on the Sunday?

My hunch was just proven wrong, but my guesswork was based on the assumption that Channel 7 (who are showing BOTH elimination finals) would want our game as a lead-in to our AFL game.

As it turns out, their showing the Sunday final with an 11:40 start, Essendon vs Casey...
