FROM THE DESK ROUND 14
SATURDAY NIGHT SCOREBOARD
Apologies to all who have voiced their disapproval via telephone to me, mostly on a Sunday morning with regard to Saturday night AFL/VCFL scoreboard presented during the half time break of the AFL game on Prime TV not announcing the results of all Saturdays games played in the Gotafe Goulburn Valley Football League. The Goulburn Valley League results are the first to be announced, however they have never contained a full round up, while it appears all other league’s in the area covered from Canberra are fully displayed.
I can assure you that all results are available and are sent to Prime 7 at 6pm on Saturdays by Keith WHITFORD, AFL Victoria IT Support and Training officer evidence of which was forwarded to me from Keith during the week showing the results of all matches played last Saturday.
Maybe the 2 minutes allocated for this service to be completed is the reason for the GVFL not having all results displayed, perhaps an email from Andrew SCHILTZ Victorian Sales Manager for Prime Television in return from an email from me will see this service improve and result in some club supporters not being frustrated on Sunday Mornings.
FOXS SPORTS PULSE
Keith WHITFORD AFL Victoria IT Support and Training officer has also had his problems of late being inundated with calls from club supporters who naturally like to see their teams best players correctly displayed on Fox’s Sports Pulse. This abnormality was bought to our notice by an attentive club supporter who advised us at GVFL headquarters that the best players displayed as 1 to 6 by the clubs in their post match reports and sent as media reports to all media outlets were not appearing in the same order on the GVFL Website when activated through the Goulburn Valley Home page, clicking on Football, Fixtures and Results and going to match centre of the various teams selected. Keith assures me that the management of Fox’s Sports Pulse are endeavoring to rectify the problem.
NETBALL RESULTS & LADDERS
A much improved service has been available throughout the entire year to enable all stakeholders to keep up with results and ladders in relation to the GV Netball League. At GVFL headquarters we were of the opinion that the procedure for obtaining these scores and up to date ladders was widely known by most, however not so, emails forwarded to gvfl@gvfl.com.au have indicated otherwise. Please go to the GVFL home page www.gvfl.com.au and click on www.gvnl.vic.netball.com.au comprehensive results and up to date ladders should be found following each weeks round of matches.
GOULBURN VALLEY HOME PAGE
The Goulburn Valley Home page also allows visitors to view the GV Footy Show presented by GVFL Board Member David FOX and JR John RYAN accompanied by other well known GV Personalities. Don’t miss current GV news edited by Norm GILLESPIE and keep up to date with the Home Central “Player of the Week” The Home Central player of the week receives a $200 shopping voucher, which can be used at any Home Central Store , situated in Benalla Road, Shepparton. During the past week the Goulburn Valley Football League has received a lucrative sponsorship cheque from Shepparton Home Central, which is to be shared equally by the 12 affiliated GVFL clubs following the settling of their financial commitments to the GVFL by October 31, 2014. Please support Shepparton Home Central at every opportunity.
OUR PUBLICITY OFFICER
How lucky we are at GV Headquarters to secure the services of former Shepparton News Editor Noel HUSSEY as our Publicity Officer. Possessed with a “Diploma” Noel could have held out for many more lucrative positions, but instead chose to support the GVFL, he in fact more or less just continued on from where he left off several year ago, as prior to leaving for the Sunshine State he was a constant visitor to the GVFL office, keeping readers up to date at all times with the latest from the League. He is a person dedicated to his role as Publicity Officer, spending hours more than any club Official would realize, he is particularly dedicated to ensuring young players in the GVFL get due recognition through the effort he puts into the Mooroopna Golf Club Rising Star Award.
