Full time - Melbourne 10.3.63 to Essendon 4.1.25. Match against pies now in progress. Some bikies are waiting to play a game after, so if we all die carry on in our names.

GENERATIONAL CHANGE by Rollo Sorry this is so late but, probably like Whispering Jack, I am under siege at work. Well, bomberblitz are the second-best forum footy team. But we beat them easily. Lot

bloody venue is in doubt again!!

remind me never to leave this important stuff to the organisers from the other sites...

rollo now on the job...

bloody hell...

I am on the train to Albury with reception dropping in and out...

can somebody drop by gosch's this weekend and report on the 2 ovals and whether or not they have goalposts ??

looks like we can play at glenferrie if we start at 10am, but I am wondering if other sites' organisers have been given the wrong info about gosch's being "under reconstruction"...

let me know...

thanks,

rollo

saints are now officially non-starters, which solves the venue problem...

hey, guys, here is message sent today to scotty (bomberblitz organiser) repeated on all forum boards:

Dear Scotty,

Realise you are interstate and may not get this for a while.

The saints have dropped out, and the pies are struggling for numbers.

The saints dropping out means we will be clear of Glenferrie well before the Charity match begins at 2pm.

Because dons and dees have massive numbers, and may have to loan players to pies, I suggest the following format:

Each game 2 X 20 minute halves, 5 minute break at half time.

11am dons v dees

11.50am pies v dees

12.40pm dons v pies

If pies play second, that will give us plenty of time to work out how many players they need to be loaned, work out jumpers etc.

If anybody objects to this format, we dees will be happy to flip a coin etc to decide on the order of play.

Confirm that quality, professional umpires have been retained again this year.

Let me know (when you can access this message).

Regards,

Rollo

Rollo can get there as a helper or assistant to Jack. Only one arm fully functional, so can't be used to signal goals...points only!

George

that's great, george... :wub:

we'll put you down at the essendon goals... :)

actually, to be serious, your value lies in your camera arm...

can you still take odd photos with just one arm ??

regards,

rollo

Im sorry for all the venue mess guys chalk that up to my inexperience. Bu tim happy with the three team format and fixture as suggested

you should be taking a bow, scotty, not apologising...

under the rollo approach, we would have turned up at gosch's to admire the holes in the ground...

I will try to make it down if only to hear the inspirational addresses of WJ.

and to write various bits of derogatory grafitti on the walls of Glenferrie Oval.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
