Gridiron Victoria promoted on Channel 10 news
Former Geelong Captain and current NFL punter for the Arizona Cardinal’s Ben Graham’s visited the Bay City Buccaneers for their opening game last weekend, and it featured in a news piece on Channel 10.
This is a fantastic coup for the league which is sure to help promote the game in Victoria. Kudos to the Buccaneers for getting Graham to toss the coin for the opening game against the Warriors.
Gridiron Victoria appear in Melbourne MX paper
If you picked up a copy of MX in Melbourne on Monday afternoon and headed for the sports section, the sight of AFL star Chris Judd in American Football pads might have been a little confusing.
MX ran a feature article about Collingwood’s US ruck import Shae McNamara and the transition from American Football to Aussie Rules.
The article also quoted GV president Dan Levin and the two worked through each position and which AFL star would be best suited to make the switch.

A GROWING distaste for Australian rules football has formed the basis for the northern suburbs’ newest sporting club.

The Northern Raiders, the brainchild of Dale Cole, are one of three new clubs – Gippsland Gladiators and Ballarat Pioneers – joining Gridiron Victoria for the 2011 season.
The new clubs will join the Bay City Buccaneers, Berwick Miners, Croydon Rangers, Monash Warriors and the Western Crusaders in competition.
Cole, a lifelong Oakland Raiders fan, said the Northern Raiders were borne from his growing disengagement with “mainstream” sports in Australia.
