Are both going to Plat (especially Jack with school)

game starts at 5 so schools shouldn't be an issue. LJ is a bit more of a concern for me due to his withdrawal from the all stars game due to "conditioning" hopefully this was just a bit of general soreness and will be right for next friday

On the Casey Scorpions website I notice a change to the match originally scheduled for this Friday being moved to Saturday morning at 10:30am.

It has been moved at the AFL's request so that the empahasis on Friday evening can be on the bushfire fundraisng effort at Telstra Dome.

hopefully the club will have something simple like a signed jumper to raffle off or something to that effect for a couple of dollars a ticket to raise some funds for the bushfire appeal. even a few tin rattlers walking around collecting a few coins. simple and it all helps. just heard 22million raised so far. incredible!! nothing will ever break the aussie spirit!!!!

I want to see it officially. I have not received any email and there is nothing on the MFC web site. I cannot go on Saturday as I play tennis. I was planning to go on Friday evening. If it really has been changed I am majorally [censored] OFF!

It is on the website of the Casey Scorpions.

The Scorps manage the ground, so I reckon they'd know what day a match was going to be played or if the date was changed.

Be thankful, I suggest, that the advice is provided by someone (even if not MFC in the first instance).

Melbourne Intra Club Change of Day/Time

Due to the unforeseen circumstances surrounding the devastating bushfires that have swept through Victoria Saturday, Melbourne's intra club will now be played at 10.30am Saturday the 14th. The game was originally to be played on Friday night, but the AFL has requested all AFL clubs place a huge emphasis on fundraising for the bushfire appeal match at the Telstra dome on Friday night between Essendon and the Western Bulldogs. Casey and Melbourne where only too happy to happy to honour the AFL request so therefore Melbourne's intra club will be Saturday morning. Gold coin donation required at the gate.

In many ways this probably gives the club a better opportunity to promote itself and to promote the facilities at Casey Fields as well as to make a contribution to the bushfire relief appeal. A Saturday morning start at 10.30 am is a reasonable time for supporters (other than those who work on Saturday morning) to get down to Casey.

However, the reasons for the AFL demanding requesting the change are a bit rubbery. An MFC practice game on a Friday evening would hardly attract that many people in the first place and what percentage of that number would be going to watch Essendon and the Bulldogs even if for a worthwhile cause?

Undeeniable, while I totally support the bushfire appeal we have yet another example of the MFC dropping the ball. No Email, Nothing on the web site leave it to the scorpions and the forum to inform. Or were they presuming nobody would turn up? I have taken a day of annual leave in an industry that is in big trouble ATM and probably should not have, so while feeling your frustrations I'm trying to look past my personal feelings. I grew up in the area that the king lake fire started so personally I hope as much money can be raised as no doubt many family's I grew up with have been effected by this event. Hopefully I can re-organize my saturday commitments to make this game.

One positive out of this is for those who believe in the "Friday the 13th curse", maybe its now safe for JW to pull the boots on!

"I'd like it if we could turn the practice match into a Casey Community fund raising event. Saturday Morning is a more family-friendly time to do so as well"

very well put. HG45

Just got mine as well, I will retract some of my last post re MFC dropping the ball.

Yeah lighten up on the criticism (can't believe the whingeing on 'Ology about this). You'll set off RFlowerwing and Hazy again how this never happened under Paul "Sunshine and Flowers" Gardner.

TrainLink to Cranbourne East scheduled to depart Cranbourne Railway Station at 9:51am and get to the Casey Complex (where the new pool is being built) at 10:01am.

That leaves 29 minutes to amble along the road to the east (or left as you go out onto the main road) some 700 metres to Casey Fields. But just ask the bus driver for the direction if you are not sure.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.
