The best and worst grounds to play footy on

[The Dark Knight]

Kingswood Oval, home of teh Unley Jets. Just dont like it one bit...

It's the size of a stamp and the surface isn't ideal

Fences are 2 metres from the boundary line, trees hang over the far side, no room behind the goals so every shot at goal ends up on the road and we play CRAP there everytime !!!

I've played there twice and both times it rained cats and dogs the night before making it hard the next day. Seems to be one of those grounds where it always rains on the day or the night before you play there.

north haven alright lol.....sheesh be in the lower grounds for me...its like playing the park lands

[Choccies]

Yep I'd give a thumbs down to North Haven as previously mentioned and any ground with a sandy cricket pitch in the middle which rules out a few of the others in that list. Just cant like an oval with sandcastles on it unfortunately...

I played in the NEFL about 10 years back and clare oval was very pretty to drive into then got on the oval and it had maggots in the centre not so nice..

[Iron Fist]

woodville south in the good??

the sun never shines on that place!

[CoverKing]

Hving playe a fair bit at Flinders and Henley, i would have Henley in the good and Flinders park in the alright!

Besides the cricket pitch, Henley oval is amazing IMO

At times it has been in a bad way and the main reason is because of a combination of early morning frost and being rock hard. Once the frost gets to it, it kills the grass, which cause the lumps of sand, dirt and potholes. It has had a fair bit of rain fall on it over the past month, so it's in a pretty good condition. Hopefully we continue to get a fair amount of water into it so it holds up well for the rest of the season.

I've played at Henley 6 times and it hasn't been in the best condition. The cricket pitch is terrible, it's either hard as a rock, or soft and muddy. Never seems to find any midway.

Always been in good condition when I've play IF, even when it's rained it's still been good.

Played at Daly oval Yesterday, what a great place to play football. It has a good Good surface, it was wet and muddy yesterday in the centre because of the rain but the rest of the surface held up well. The away changerooms were good, nice size and clean, the best I've been in this year behind Smithfield's. The surroundings were great aswell, in all it's a great ground to watch and play footy on IMO.

[Not Scared]

Worst I've played on: Gaza by a street. An absolute mud bath in the wet although I think it's improved a lot since I last played there.

The best: Berri. I might be a bit biased but it's around the same shape and size as Adelaide Oval with a great surface and good surrounds for spectators. If there was a little grass hill and a playground as well it would be amazing.

[Oldno7]

Best to play on, Salisbury , Kilburn, Adelaide Uni, Goodwood,
Best facilities Kilburn by a street
Worst Gaza, Portland, Old Scotch (downhill) Tea tree Gully when it's wet.

You wanna play footy on the oval or in the playground?

[200 Killer Wasps]

Have driven past the Clare oval quite regularly the past few weeks and I was quite amazed at the shocking condition the oval appears to be in.

[bionic_knee]

I may be EXTREMELY bias but West Croydon was by far the best surface i seen this year in Div 6. It has always been good as far back as i can remember.
Not too many bad ovals this year with the exception of Houghton after and during a monsoon!

I now LOOOOVE Richmond Oval too
