The TRFM Gippsland League finals will take place from August 31st to September 21st. The Grand Final will be held on the 21st of September at Traralgon Recreation Reserve based on feedback from the clubs in the League. The majority of the clubs were in favour of having the biggest day in the calendar at Traralgon Recreation Reserve this year which will mark the first time the venue has hosted the Grand Final since 2015. Last year’s Grand Final venue Morwell Recreation Reserve will host the Preliminary Final on the 14th of September. The ground works on the second oval and Keegan Street combined with the reduced capacity for car parking around the venue was taken into account when assessing Morwell Recreation Reserve and its capability to host the 2019 Grand Final.
There are still some finals to be locked in with the Qualifying Final and 1st Semi Final still to be named. The League will be assessing the ground conditions and ladders closer to finals before naming the final two venues. The 2nd Semi Final will be at the venue of the Senior football minor premier after the League accepted a proposal by the clubs to reward the highest finishing senior football side with the opportunity to play on home turf. The vast majority of clubs were in favour of this proposal and put it to the League before the commencement of season 2019. This venue looks likely to be either Maffra Recreation Reserve, Sale Oval or Ted Summerton Reserve in Moe.
