Hi gang,

Barnesy from Talking Carlton just trying to gauge an interest of playing a forum game against you on either:

Sunday February 11th / 18th / or 25th starting at 2pm.

Possibly Glenferrie Oval or one of your choice.

Tried to PM your admin but got an error message so as to not start a topic straight up.

We were keen for one more game before the season starts and hoped we could get it organised with you guys and girls with a 4 week time table.

If you can give me some feedback we can organise a game or knock the idea on its head early. We are gauging the actual interest and availability with our crew now.

Hope you are enjoying your pre season and best wishes for 2007.

Barnesy

    I'm sure we could get together a crew for it.

    Name a day and we'll see you at Glenferrie.

    How about -

    First choice

    Sunday 18th February - 2pm start

    Second choice

    Sunday 25th February - 2pm start

    You start organising your crew, and we'll do the same and see where we are at at weeks end.

    Cheers

    Yeah I should be able to make it, and I should be able to get my mate prepared for the game too.

    Also, I was thinking about this whole thing the other day, and how about having a round-robin system with maybe 1 or 2 other forums (probably 4 teams in total max to make it easier to schedule games) in which either the 2 top teams play off in a final or the top team being crowned the champions?

    Melbourne play the Hawks in the Ansett Cup on the evening of the 25th.

    I'd doubt people would want to miss this game.

    Or Pagan.

    Perhaps he might steer them to a rare win

    Ok - lets go for

    Sunday the 18th February

    2pm start

    We will focus on that date, and drop the 11th and 25th.

    And the round robin for next season sounds good, if you guys like that idea we could approach the other forums soon about putting the idea up for next off season.

    Talking Carlton

    Demonland

    Nicks Pies ?

    BomberBlitz

    Saintsational

    Punt Road End

    Who are the others (hawks etc)

    Change of date - Sunday 11th February??

    Does not mix with your family day nor ours on the 18th -

    So Sunday 11th February - 2pm

    Ok.

    I just want to get a grip on this so we don't mess anyone up, a few of our guys are no can do's for the 11th.

    What time is your family day?

    Can you still get a team together for the 18th?

    We don't want to go back and forward, but just get a date (be it 11th or 18th) that the majority of all posters can play.

    Our preference is still the 18th.

    IMO it would be totally inappropriate for Demonland/Demonology to run a function in opposition to the club's family day just as it would be inappropriate for Talking Carlton to do the same thing on Carlton's family day.

    I don't have a problem with that, it's just trying to organise everything to get the best possible outcome for us all. The 25th is our family day, so we come back to the 11th February.

    We maybe having to leave it until the start of next season.

    Unless you guys have another solution, I will go back to Talking Carlton crew ans float the idea of postponing until the end of the year.

    No dramas, we just don't want to go back and forth and still have to many hurdles.

    Are you guys cool with postponing until the end of the year?

    Cheers

    I honestly don't care if the game's on when our family day is, as the family day isn't really intended for people around my age. But if you're going to schedule a date, it'd be safer to do around that date just incase.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
