God - one can only hope that IF this bunch get into A1 - they are FORCED to sort this piece of crap ground out. Even better - they just get sorted out - this is NOT a ground to play A1 / A2 football on - perfect for juniors, but NOT the grade they currently exist in or aspire to.

I can't think of another ground so poorly thought of by all but the home team. Too small - shocking surface - facilities are only reasonable....reminds me of SHOC's using a parkland at West Beach with the visitors tiny and disgracefully kept changerooms 400 metres from the oval - just not good enough.

Actually no - in fact my opinon and comment is simply based on the fact that the oval and facilities at EP are shite....simple as that.

Cheap way to try and put a counter argument - by bagging someone else.....

they may not be great but thats why it's AMATUER football, if you don't like it be good enough or have the heart to go play SANFL or AFL, otherwise make do getting changed behind a tree.

Actually saw it like this once (without the grass) - well nearly - it had been wet for a period and it was obviously chopped up - but they got 2 -3 days of brilliant weather, but not enough to get the roller onto it. I was amazed that there was not a lot of ankles done that day.

Still a very poor place to play......
