just heard from the sainsational organisers...

they are keen to play us while rivvo is out with his knee injury... <_<

suggestion is late november or early december... :unsure:

they can find another oval with a good surface (not glenferrie)... :rolleyes:

they ask if we would object to a saturday game... (not saying they won't play sunday)...

can posters register their interest and preferred dates here, so we can give them an early reply ??

thanks,

rollo

    If they want to play on a Saturday, you can tell them we'll play them on the day of the national draft if they don't mind Jack Watts playing for us!

    On a serious note however, I think we might lose a few players to their cricket teams if that happens so I'm not sure that it's going to be all that popular an idea.

    Now that my exams have finished I would seriously consider playing depending on the day that is chosen.

    so what's your preference, clint ??

    no chance on a saturday because of cricket, but given enough notice i think i could really make my debut this time.

    no more exams, i dont work sundays anymore. sounds like the stars are aligning for deanox to pull on the red and blue...

    definitely a no to november 30th from me, but i dont think i am high up the pecking order in when this game gets determined anyway.

    Whats the chances of a bus trip to the location.

    Casey, anyone?

    The surface would be great.

    Well - Sunday is usually best for people - especially during cricket season...

    I jet off on November 26th, so unless its before then, I'll be out.

    hey, dl...

    where do you want the bus trip to start from ??

    (it will probably finish at one of the lush albert park lake ovals, but don't tell anyone I said so)...

    and can people please post their preferences - saturday v sunday, exact dates etc (see the post from cactus above)... ??

    just heard from mfc...

    and his preferences line up with those of cactus...

    melbournefc is a major organiser of these games, SO WE BETTER TAKE NOTICE OF HIS PREFERENCES IMO...

    I'm play Rec Footy in the Corporate Games at Albert Park on the weekend of 22/23 Nov.

    At this stage I might be available the last week of Nov?? I also have tennis finals...tbc

    Prefer a sunday game, saturday is out.

    I'm also in the Saturday cricket-playing boat, so a Sunday would suit me better. Would play any Sunday. Definitely can't play Saturdays.

    have heard from cribbes, our 7' ruckman, and he won't be flying in until december 7... <_<

    and december 7 (a sunday) is shaping as the realistic date... :wacko:

    a realistic date on which we will be without both cribbes and mickrocks1, unhappily... :angry:

    at least cactus will be happy...

    and my reputation for taking bribes will be enhanced... :rolleyes:

    I realise that most people are from up Melbourne way so it might be a big hassle, but I wonder what the chances are of playing the game at Casey Fields? Preferably while the team isn't there, we can't have them being critical of the way we play football...

    There are a few grounds there and they always seem to be in good nick. Just a thought.

    substantial number of our players use public transport, clint...

    and there is most often an after-match drink and BBQ with the sainters after the match...

    these things need to be factored in to any final choices...

    Fair enough.

    Just putting it out there.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?
