Unfortunately the surface at Port Melbourne has been deemed not fit for VFL Footy and Sarurday's Home games has been transferred over to Punt Road. Very disappointing!

What's happened to the surface at Port? Has there been that much traffic on it?

Great win by the Dolphins today. At half-time I was worried by the amount of chances we'd blown (Frankston had kicked 5.9 in the first half) but they broke the game open in the third and kept working in the last quarter to keep Coburg out of it. Good to have some highlights near the end of the year.

Great win by Frankston today was really worried about the game but did very well in the trying conditions.

Hopefully Coburg can get a win next weekend

WelL done ro Williamstown on wining in Brisbane by chance of getting double chance now.

Werribee v Williamstown grand final ? Would be awesome if it was. Werribee have been a power all season. Williamstown have come good again after some poor games. Great win by the seagulls in Brisbane. I'm on way to Germany at the moment from London on eurostar. One week in Germany and France for a week after being in the uk for 3 weeks. Will be back in Melbourne in time for proper finals, not the wild card crap.

Rapt with Frankston's win yesterday. Coburg were valiant, but a bit under skilled, and not real composed in contested footy, which is our favourite thing. Josh Smith was superb in defence for the Dolphs, shows real signs of being able to give Max Williams some much needed assistance with the talls. Fordham had leather poisoning as usual, Mynott and Quirk had plenty of it, and big Justin Davies was a real focal point up forward. We unearthed two more promising young blokes in William Brown and Cooper Trembath who look to have big potential up forward and down back respectively. I swear I'm gonna get down there after the final round and start begging some of these blokes to sign for next season. The future does look bright with this group.

For the Burgers, Mitch Podhajski was excellent up forward, McKenzie and Nelson had plenty of ball.....but otherwise too many were guilty of panicky football and plenty of clangers.

I have just finished watching the Port v Richmond game.  Another game where the Borough had chances but poor kicking and decision making has cost us.  Yes a few notable omissions (Naismith injured, Hooper suspended) too.

Played at home, woud it have been a win? hard to say.

I reckon Hird and Rossman are reasonable chances of getting drafted at seasons end (just as Phillips should be).

No I'm back in Greece trying to sleep in this damn heat !!!! If you can I highly recommend going to Heidelberg and visiting the castle (as well as general site seeing) and also shwalbish hall is another very nice town. I thought Germany was very impressive as a country -  above expectations,  has done beautiful sights.

Watched a soccer game in augsberg. Amazing atmosphere. Score was 3-3 half time. Final score 4-4. On way to Paris now for last week of trip. I'll be back for  the vfl finals in 2 weeks. Werribee look very good. They will win it this year in what has been an outstanding season.

I was told the curator put the wrong weedkiller on the grass or overdosed it and killed off the surrounding grass

I did similar; put wrong weed killer on my front lawn. It took a couple of years to recover.
