We've never beaten since we've regained our own reserves side. It was 1906 or sometime around then since we last beat Willy.

Been past at night and seem OK for training but a bit surprised, they don't seem real great for a match. Be interesting.

We've played twilight games there in the middle of winter

They are deemed acceptable for VFL football not AFL.

They only need to be VFL standard

Lights aren’t up to standard for televised games at night
Lux levels are approx 150/200 which is ok for training etc
Ideally they need to have a Lux level of 400 plus
Vic government states AFL match needs to be 500 Lux
The 150 Lux  will be poor for TV
Expect it will come across on TV similar to AFLW games at Carlton which were very average

Issue is the portable floods you cannot get high enough as the permanent poles already there. This creates glare in which it would “ blind the players “and thus lose ball in the lights

But will say it again

The lights are deemed to be VFL standard. This is a VFL game not AFL game

So..... as you say TV coverage will be poor but meets VFL requirements
