Definitely not there. Sent a photo of likely spot to a former finder who confirmed I had the correct GZ, and that the cache is missing. Sent the same pic to the cache owner. Hope it gets reinstated because it is a clever cache

A cricket/soccer/Footy Oval that is tucked away in an isolated spot. Very sneaky hide, loved the cache container. Thanks **neets7767**. TFTC.

TFTC what a great piece of little construction. How do geocachers get so clever?
I reckon they planned the freeway especially around to avoid destroying a great cache

Great spot! Poked it and thought it was left, wandered around and found it on the second pass-by
Had to take off socks and shoes and brave crossing the creek... Very scary night time cache!
This was eventful! Access was difficult and included a river crossing, great cache though when we found it!!!

This afternoon, I was tasked with collecting the last of a friend's belongings from the nearby unit she's vacating, and I was determined to log a cache for this rather arithmetic date. Bombing out at a multi I'd solved, I decided a nice walk would be in order.
And it was a nice little walk under the freeway to the Cricket Ground and GZ, with a quick smiley to boot. Nice work on the container and good placement, neets7767. Cheers.

Found at night, quite surprising to see a bunch of cars parked at the grounds, and people training after dark. Used the hint and the cache was easy to track down after that. Thanks for putting one out near my house, so I can fill in another remaining spot on my calendar!
Looking at GZ, I wonder if the cache will survive the roadworks. Here's hoping.

Found this cache today. I was out chasing higher terrain caches for a New Zealand challenge cache and this fitted
the bill. I was a bit cheeky and drove from Jewel St. Parking by the construction site I found the cache quickly and easily and signed the logbook. It was a lot harder to drive out than in! It will be interesting to see what they do with this site after construction is finished.
Thanks for the cache.

Cunningly hidden, do not be put off by recent building work, cache still intact. Did not require tools.
Nice one! Didn't need a tool, but maybe needed hearing protection as CityLink widening is in full swing next to GZ. Beautiful spot; it must be very soothing to hear leather hit willow here in summer.
I like these clever little hides, had a feeling it would be this type from the description so found it immediately. You'll need some kind of small lever.
Find #2471. Found @ 15:48 with The Good Lady Wife.
The family were around the corner at my B.I.L.'s place for the traditional Easter Sunday egg hunt. When it was over, TGLW offloaded the kids to the in-laws, and we got some steps and caches. This was the nearest and we walked to the empty park.
A nice hide here, which earns a favourite point from me, but the coordinates were a bit off for me today. Once I looked at the hint I quickly found it.
Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables.

A difficulty cache location to get to, but once we worked out how to get there it was an easy find.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks for this cache here today.

Cut off is right - decapitated more like it! A clever hide well worth a favourite.
Beautiful day for a walk. Great park. Aggro...big cricket match on. Too many muggles in the environ. Another day.Only upon driving up did I realise that I could get closer to the park than anticipated. So a short walk and a look in a familiar place found a different type of camo, nice work , thanks for the cache here, a park I never really knew about
What a great cache! Just getting to it was a bit of fun. Excellent camo and Accurate Co-ords. Easy Fav. T4TC
I thought I picked the wrong day to go allok for this one.
Firstly a rather suspecious looking car was parked at the "dead end" street near the cache, with a man and a woman sitting in the back seat.
Secondly, when I arrived at the oval, there was a council working at the club house and soon after that another council truck arrived with two more people in it.
Luckly, gz had plenty of cover, so that the council workers were not able spot what I was doing.
TFTC!!

First find on my Sunday morning stroll around Brunswick and first find of the new year! Thanks for the cache
First jog for 2016, in holidays in Melbourne. Cache was found by geo-daughter - better eyes than mine! Tftc.
The way the cache is hidden is clever
We used a car key in place of a lever
Miss 8's keen vision
And cache intuition
Had us sign it with little endeavour
Your favourite points have increased
As your efforts left us most pleased
Thank goodness for maps
As my direction sense lapsed
As the route to GZ is a tease

Fantastic hiding spot, don't forget your tool. Also on weekends watch out for Muggles playing cricket.
What an interesting little secluded spot this is. I found my way by car to the carpark and that would not always be accessible either but of course it was today.
Once at GZ I spotted the really great hide. One of the best of this type I've seen in a while. My car key did the trick!
A favourite point for your efforts here
Cheers

a piece of steel I did find,
near a cricket pitch, not behind,
parking in carpark is allowed,
just walk along fence quite proud,
a cache, not old, quite new,
will soon come into view,
a tool you will need to extract,
a screw driver to be exact
Thanks for the poem and hiding a small cache in here, many years ago I did have the pleasure of spreading fertilizer all over the grassy area

Parked in Jewell Pde and walked around with Shadow the geodog - then realised I could have driven around into the carpark 
. Oh well, Shadow got some exercise and a bark at the birds under the bridge! Placed my hand on the cache as the first thing I looked at, but it didn't budge so I looked for other options then read the clue. That brought me back to the first option and with a bit more force the log was signed at 3:15pm. It's certainly not a very big hit for six on the freeway side of the ground - in fact I'll be much more careful as I drive past here on match days from now on

thanks neets7767, another good one

We were three minutes out in the car when the FTF was published. We kept going for the {2TF} and made it. Our second for today. Found with JSando. TFTC.
Vehicle access via Jewell Cres is ok. It takes you to a little car park.

Found at 6:15. I was luck enough to see this one appear at about 5:20pm just before leaving work in the city. I knew the spot well as I ride on the bike path each day so it was quick ride home with a slight detour to get the cache. As I got the cache, I was happy to see it was still not found, so a quick sign, log and replace. TFTC.
This a very interesting park as it is tucked away from access except for the one road in. Nice cache. See the 2TF logs, I'm glad I road fast!!!
