the change rooms were the carlton cricket club rooms which are a couple of minutes walk from the ground. it looked odd watching the team walk off the ground, through the terraces and exit the ground.

It's an absolute disgrace. Victoria Park's a bit run down, but it would be more of a home than that. Come on Eddie, pull yer finger out!!! |

How much would it cost to bring Vic Park up to a standard that was safe for both players and spectators?

it is safe now. there is a ton of seating. the surface is good enough to have games played each week. the umpires train there.
i don't think it is a bridge too far to contemplate a return there in the not too distant future.

Sounds like it could be a plan

Thanks again Dave!
Looks like McCarthy, Dawes, Macca, Dutchy and Lonie all are in good form.
Liked the goal from Jaxson aswell, the kid looks like he could be a pack breaker with that speed.

Dissapointing that Presti was a late withdrawl because of a groin injuy.
Getting to game 200 seems to be getting further and further away!
