Not the week you asked the question in Bench Coach, but Eastern Park have forfeited against Athelstone this week. Strange decision given they were still in with a chance, albeit a long shot, of making the 5. Can any one at EP shed any light on the reason? This gives Athelstone a 3 week break leading into the finals - not the best preparation.
Are all other games going ahead as planned?
In answer to my own questions - no
1) Eastern Park with a very slim chance forfeited to Athelstone
2) Portland forfeited to Seaton Ramblers, and
3) Broadview had the Fitzroy forfeit,
so only two games played.
Disappointing end to the season for the competition as a whole.
