Any idea of likely opponents, JW? Or are they TBC with the times, venues and dates as well? |

A good fixture! Thanks for posting it MB!
The last four games at Victoria Park is awesome with double headers with the Northern Blues and Richmond

Just remember Jezza, those Victoria Park games could yet be transferred to the MCG to act as true curtain-raisers. Check back later next year for confirmation on that front...
But yes, a decent enough fixture.
Here's hoping we can make the 8 again in 2015, and perhaps even score another home final (hopefully with the right result coming about in the end)...

Yes you're right about that. I have heard talk that our VFL side may play some games in curtain raisers at the MCG. I don't mind the idea as long as it doesn't erode what has made the VFL an appealing competition to watch as a spectator in the past few years especially since we got our own breakaway side and play our home games at our spiritual ground.
Our aim definitely has to be top 8 and to win a finals game this time round. Footscray won the Premiership after one season in the competition so I hope seeing that will drive our boys to greater success and achievement next year. It'll be interesting to see what happens and how it transpires.

| Is the ABC still broadcasting or is that going to another station? 5x 1:00pm games would have meant possibly more broadcast games. |

i think the idea is for the vfl game to run straight in to their afternoon afl coverage.

I think they are looking at 11-12 start of VFL games. Just like John Wren Posted, so it goes straight into the AFL Coverage of the Weekend
