Hopefully then this year we will also "buy in" to the VFL finals, unlike the past insults we have sometimes handed out to our affiliates

They are no longer our affiliates, they are our Reserves (Seconds) Team!

Good pick-up - the shift in terminology is very important here.

Wet, constant drizzle down at Geelong at present. Me thinks these conditions mean a great day for Trenners and Dunny!

Stopped raining now

Finals Eligibilty - 2016 Peter Jackson VFL Legendairy Finals Series  

20. Participation in Finals
 
(a) A Player who has not played in at least one AFL, VFL Senior Grade or Development League Home and Away Match in the relevant season will be ineligible to play in the Senior Grade Finals Series.
 
(b) Subject to  Rule 20(c) below, a Player who has played in an AFL Home and Away Match after 1 July in the relevant season will be ineligible to play in VFL Senior Grade or Development League Finals Series Matches unless that Player has played in a combined total of at least six (6) Senior Grade or Development League Home and Away Matches in the same season.
 
(c) A Player who has not played in at least two (2) Development League Home and Away Matches in the relevant season will be ineligible to play in a Development League Finals Series Match unless, immediately prior to selection:
 
(i) the Player has missed at least ten (10) consecutive VFL Home and Away Matches through injury; and
 
(ii) the Player’s Club remains active in the VFL Senior Grade Finals Series.
 
(d) A Player who has played in more than eight (8) VFL Senior Grade Home and Away Matches will be ineligible to play in Development League Final Series Matches unless that Player has played in at least six (6) Development League Home and Away Matches.
 
(e) Despite any other provision of this Rule 20, but subject to  Rule 20(f), where a Club has both its AFL and VFL Senior Teams engaged on the same weekend, any Player may be selected to play in the VFL Senior Team so long as that Player has played in at least one AFL or VFL Senior Grade Home and Away Match or Development League Home and Away Match in that relevant season.
 
(f) When an AFL Club is eliminated from the AFL Final Series on the same weekend as the VFL Grand Final, the selection of players in the VFL Senior Grade team shall be unrestricted, provided the player has participated in at least one (AFL or VFL) Senior Grade or AFL Victoria Development League match in the relevant season.
 
(g) Despite any other provision in Rule 20, where a Club does not field a Development League Team, an AFL listed Player must:
 
(i) qualify under Regulation 20(b); and
 
(ii) have played no more than 12 AFL Home and Away Matches,
 
to be eligible to play in VFL Finals Series Matches.
 
(h) Despite any other provision in Rule 20, in circumstances where:
 
(i) an AFL Club is participating in the AFL Finals Series, but is not required to play on a particular weekend (by virtue of winning its AFL Qualifying Final and earning a one-week break before its AFL Preliminary Final); and
 
(ii) the AFL Club’s VFL team is playing on that weekend,
 
any AFL listed player who did not play in the AFL Qualifying Final will be eligible to play in the Club’s VFL team in the week in which the AFL Club has a one-week break.
 
(i) Despite any other provision in Rule 20, in circumstances where:
 
(i) an AFL Club is participating in the AFL Finals Series, but is not playing on the weekend of the AFL bye weekend after the final round of the AFL home and away season; and
 
(ii) the AFL Club’s VFL team is playing on that weekend,
 
any AFL listed player who did not play in the AFL Club’s AFL team in the final round of the AFL home and away season will be eligible to play in the Club’s VFL team in the AFL bye round after the final round of the AFL home and away season.
 
(j) Despite any other provision in Rule 20, the CEO of AFL Victoria (or nominee) may deem any Player eligible to play in any VFL Finals Series Match.

By my reckoning, the following players meet the eligibility requirements:-

Lynden Dunn, Colin Garland, Jack Grimes, Liam Hulett, Jay Kennedy-Harris, Max King, Viv Michie, Alex Neal-Bullen, Ben Newton, Cameron Pedersen, Joel Smith, Jake Spencer, Dean Terlich, Jack Trengove, Sam Weideman, Mitchell White

Matt Jones will qualify if he plays against Geelong today as would Chris Dawes and Christian Salem if they play both remaining VFL games. Angus Brayshaw would qualify if he played in the VFL next week. However, given their injury issues during the year, I doubt that the last three would play VFL finals if they did qualify.

I can't make it down to the Cattery today so if any Demon fans are there, your reports during the game would be greatly appreciated.

Jones with leather poisoning 15 at qt. trenners 10, Grimes 7.

Goals to JKH & Grimes!

Hulett kicks his second. Lead 27 points.

Is Hulett a genuine prospect? Seems to be doing ok in the 2's. Deep fwd or more a roaming type?

 

Gold to Scott and Pedo put Casey ahead by 33 points.
