I have to say that I have thoroughly enjoyed the last two Friday arvos.
Heading to my local council footy oval at Moorabbin to watch the mighties play against two rival FOUNDATION clubs!
Love the fact that we were playing two 1897 teams at our home ground.
It was great to see all the locals roll up straight from work and school and just watch real footy as it was meant to be played.
Great stuff! In 2020 my favourite memories were our finals win against the 'Dogs, watching the H&A game versus the 'Dogs at the Mt Martha Drive In, and the pre-season match at Moorabbin against the Hawks - especially as that was the only match I ended up being actually able to go to that year.
Well done to the club and the AFL

Re: Well done to the club and the AFL
I highly doubt this will ever, ever happen. Even if they build seating - there is NO PARKING and that is the reason we were booted from Moorabbin - the residents hated having to move their cars before the game and not coming home until after 6:00 every second weekend.

Re: Well done to the club and the AFL
Wouldn't have to be every second weekend, and it would only be against a club with no supporters - the Suns and the Giants. Maybe Port Adelaide if they struggle for a while, they don't draw a crowd over here. It would have to be a fully ticketed event with GA tix for the outer and behind goals.
I actually think we are getting closer to this happening with matches being played for points in Ballarat and at local ovals in SA this season.
