With Good Friday coming into play there will now be four public holiday blockbuster games in the first half of the season.

This proposal will ensure every club gets their fair share of these prime dates. Wil be a cup style competion for the 10 Victorion clubs but with the premiership points as well. Played out over four dates with a final on Queens Birthday in chronological order.

One qualifying game each will be played on Good Friday and Easter Monday. The winners will qualify for ANZAC day the following season.

The winner of ANZAC day gets to play on Queens Birthday the following season against the Cup holder who is the winner of the previous QB game.

Teams will qualify for the GF and EM games from a queue system so every team gets a chance to reach the QB game over a 3 season period. All losers will be relegated back to the queue to await their next turn. Under this system 8 clubs will play one blockbuster each a season with two clubs in the queue for the following season.

To ensure a smooth transition, it wil start with the two Easter qualifying games with ANZAC and QB remaining the same until the first 3 season rotation is complete and self replicating.

Any opinions?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
