After the last contest against the blues, my mouth is watering already... :rolleyes:

Suggested date from the organisers on both sites is Sunday, 1 February. Any objections ?? :unsure:

We also need to name the trophy ...

I do not like "the Warnock Brothers Tankard" because we do not know yet if one or both brothers will become long-term players at their respective clubs.

I prefer "the Duke", named after Earl Spalding, who gave great service to both clubs, but I don't want to impose my will ...

before giving people the opportunity to agree with me... :lol:

All posters welcome to put in their two cents' worth...

    I hear you, pringle...

    date not set yet, and I have been known to take bribes... :rolleyes:

    In Perth for most of Jan and all of Feb.

    Sorry Rollo

    really sorry you have to miss this one, mate...

    I was speaking to the talkingcarlton organiser yesterday, and we both expect it to be a ripper of a game... :rolleyes:

    heard from melbournefc... :wub:

    who is worried this date may clash with a tennis fixtue at rod laver arena... <_<

    It's all been sorted out. I just sent an email to Tennis Australia and they're cancelling the final of the Australian Open to avoid the clash and the inconvenience to commuters.

    Very gentlemanly of them too! :lol:

    sorry to hear that, wolf... :angry:

    I am looking forward to another great tussle, and this time (hopefully) on a proper-sized oval...

    unfortunately, some people will have to miss out and february 8 is better for most than february 1 at this stage...

    you are more than good enough for these contests, mate... :wub:

    don't want to hold out too much hope, but date not yet fixed with the opposition...

    I might be around Rollo or could be away... I might come to watch the first half before going.... Lets hope we get everyone on board and have a few beers after the game this time

    still waiting on the opposition to advise preferred date... <_<

    unfortunately, we need an opponent for each of these forum games... :lol:

    I'm returning from a trip to Japan on the 8th (so 1st is no good) but can't remember off the top of my head what the time of my flight back is. I have a bad feeling that it isn't early enough. :wacko:

    It disappoints me because I would LOVE to be on the ground for this one...! Especially after rollo talked up the skills of TalkingCarlton at the last game.

    • 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?
