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.

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.

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...

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
