    Has a good table with all the sizes.

    It's mega long.
    VFL Park was mega long and somewhere between its original and shortened versions is where AFL grounds should sit for the best standard of play.

    I think when I did my year 12 CAT review of Matty Knights in 1997 it was 185 long and 160 wide. So much space, perfect for one on one contests in those days. Now players are quicker and taller, 190 long would be perfect.

    Only drawback is you can't see shit.

    Don't worry the camera's will be zoomed in close enough to see the freckles on the players as they run through traffic that just appears out of nowhere at the edge of the screen.
    I should leave it alone but you're not right

    I'd be more worried about how I could get the sound and light intensity right to ensure all the fans had sufficient game day experience to have a fit and shattered teeth.

    WFT is this garbage? Why is one wing straight? That's not an oval. It's an oval that got misshaped from being left at the bottom of a school bag for too long

    You obviously don't know anything about what makes this competition great.

    Rule 1 - Blockbusters have to happen twice a year. Blocks can't be busted in a single hit.

    Rule 2 - Equity in stadium drawn revenue can't exist. Teams drawing different per head revenue fosters competition in a captive environment.

    Rule 3 - Every team that is Carlton, Geelong and Essendon should get more games at the MCG. It's unfair the MCG tenants have more experience there than they do.

    The left wing looks like it's been fattened up.

    I don't know how you can speak so poorly of your own stadium.

    That is appalling. How tf is that afl standard. A good example of something that isn't but is most definitely afel standard.

    If this round has taught us nothing else, is that we need to draft or develop a tagger.

    Nobody ever says “we need to draft in a tagger” but why not? If Daicos gets five against us, we win. If Callan Ward didn’t exist last week to stop Bont at Quarter time- we win.

    It might have taught us this, doesn't mean Beveridge is going to do it.

    WTF didn't they reshape the ground when they got all of those millions that Sedat campaigned for and have a proper oval.

    Don't care who won out of Carlton and St Kilda today so long as the draw was out of the equation.
