Can they better their previous efforts?<br />Banksie, that is what the FFT site shows for all postponed game as a default time until they reschedule.<br />Good thing there is no Mad Monday like with the footy guys, another week of training for three clubs who thought would be putting their feet up.<br />Agree with Walter's thoughts, surely KGV could have been used Sunday especially for that game given it was scheduled for Sunday. Must be council changing their supposed 7 game rule again trying to protect the ground for its 6 months of inactivity coming up or FFT just not caring enough to pull their finger out late last week and change it.Sir Mix a Lothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16293795026803717869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3290088887405022587.post-17553868443940173302009-08-17T09:21:24.115+10:002009-08-17T09:21:24.115+10:00Apparantly the 30th Sep.

Surely, ...The lack of foresight by FFT is amazing.<br /><br />Surely, Hobart Olympic and Kingborough Lions United, as well as New Town Eagles versus University, should have been a double-header at KGV Park today. There was ample time to organise this as everyone knew by mid-week that the games at South Hobart and Clare Street would undoubtedly be off.<br /><br />A double-header at KGV today would have decided the final four and avoided the congestion that is looming.<br /><br />To trot out the same old argument that the council only allows 7 games a week on KGV is wearing thin. There were two games on Saturday and nothing since the previous Saturday.Walternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3290088887405022587.post-3772914029918767322009-08-16T09:56:27.899+10:002009-08-16T09:56:27.899+10:00The Kingborough, Olypmic game should have been pla...The Kingborough, Olypmic game should have been played this weekend. <br /><br />This is a vital game in determining the final 4 and the game should have been shifted to KGV today.<br /><br />When played it should be a good game - Kingborough going for 4th spot, Olympic able to catch Kingborough on points with a win and in all likelihood a big crowd.Captainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14709785366661636583noreply@blogger.com
