Playing surface was a joke - it was a case of spot the grass amongst all the dirt and mud. The lighting is absolutlely daplorable and the SANFL need to investigate maybe not playing night games until they get their sub par lights fixed, maybe even add an extra tower or 2. There were parts of the ground which were very hard to see. Lastly the catering - I had to visit 2 different canteens before I could get a hot pie and even then at best you could only call it warm. I'll also give you the big tip if you have 4 working in the canteen at least have 2 working on each side, these braniacs had 3 on one side and 1 the other - very smart obviously Have a good hard look at yourselves Central Districts with all the money you have and you still can't get facilities at the ground up to scratch. But that's OK isn't it you have GRAND CENTRAL - the place is like the taj ma hal or something. You can see where all the money gets spent. Last of all but not least how about investing in a couple of rows of seatd around the ground - it's a joke that one's only way of getting a seat is to bring a deck chair from home. Smarten up Centrals and you might find a few more people attend games at DOG PARK.


I can’t believe you’re complaining about a row of seats. Get a life!

“Smarten up Centrals and you might find a few more people attend games at DOG PARK”

Ha ha ha. An Eagles supporter telling us how to get more people to attend our games. How about you concentrate on getting more than 10 people to your own.

You sound like a sook.

Geez...every Oval has it's problems wether it's a concrete jungle, parking shithouse, toilets up the crapper :lol: , catering or whatever, the main point is you go to the footy to WATCH footy. If you don't enjoy going to those grounds that you have problems with, simple, DON'T.
I have to say the grounds in the SANFL are fine for what they are there for, and that is to provide enough space for people to watch footy. getting a Hot Pie, Cold Beer etc etc is part of the package but runs second fiddle to actually viewing the game.

Yeah, I reckon you're right sjab. To a certain extent it's the poor nature of the SANFL grounds that provides that 'un-sanitised footy' atmosphere I love. I'm there to watch the footy...I couldn't give a sh!t about seats or toilet queues...
