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

still waiting on michaely, imtoohot, the passenger, mickrocks1 and bananas to confirm... :unsure:

with the exception of the passenger (trying to recover from injury), I will give you guys until 10pm on Monday to let us know...

if I don't hear from you by then, I will list you as apologies...

fair enough ?? B)

rollo

No injuries for me, it was a fixture clash with cricket but at this stage it looks like I'm available! Looking forward to it.

sorry, mate...

must have you confused with michaely...

I will check my paperwork (sighs)... :wacko:

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 assume everyone is on a strict diet, no alcohol and plenty of vitamins to get themselves up and about for sunday?

I just got back from watching victory lose 5-0 in brisbane. Alcohol was a requirment.

Go Landers!

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.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
