Carlton, Melbourne, Richmond and Essendon took part in a scratch match this afternoon … at the same time.

The game saw a squad of 16 Carlton players taking on various amalgamations of the other three Victorian teams.

The Demons and Tigers are undermanned given they have players either in quarantine, injured or back in Victoria, while the Bombers have a lengthy injury list themselves. 

Richmond, Melbourne and Essendon rotated their available players through the scrimmage, with some swapping teams to play for Carlton at times in the last quarter to accommodate for players on limited minutes.

The Demonic Bombing Tigers got the win over the Blues, but scratch matches are to be taken with many grains of salt - especially this one.

Tom McDonald (Melbourne), Mitch Brown (Melbourne), Tom Cutler (Essendon), Sydney Stack (Richmond), Oleg Markov (Richmond) and Charlie Spargo (Melbourne) were among the players on the opposition team.

This season just got even weirder.

Interesting. Bit of a dog's breakfast to me. At least they get a run

 

I feel sick, Melb and Ess players?! I hope Spargo was able to lead all of the Dons players away to an unsanctioned, quarantine breaking party. Best he’ll do for us this year.

Good old spargo. Favourite player

 

Proper weird.
 

Hope they didn’t share water bottles with that Essendon mob - I don’t want to risk any of our players testing positive for <insert disease/prohibited drug>!

Just bizarre how footy has come to this..

Quite sad actually.


Good idea really.

Except for the Essendon players. Hope our guys had a long shower afterwards.

I don’t think it’s said at all.  This is absolutely brilliant that teams are coming together for the greater good.

Of course its good that teams are coming together. We all expected that.

But we're long way off until we seen the rich tradition of having Saturday or Sunday Casey reserves playing. I miss tuning in to see how our VFL side was going during game day.


Going by the report and solitary pic on the Blues’ website we provided the jumpers and Richmond the socks. 

Like the improvising but not the fact they labelled the team Rich-bourne Bombers.

Further to that the Carlton Website articles list that Carlton's reserves kicked 6 goals so TMac could have kicked 7.

Highlights and a player-by-player review will be available on carltonfc.com.au early in the week.

GOALS: De Koning 2, Fisher, O’Dwyer, Owies, Philp

Agreed Dee

They should have been called the Essenmond Demons

I hope Owies has a long and successful career, but also with lots of one-week injuries just so we can see the team sheet "Out:  Owies (injured)".  I'm sure one day he will make a great forward line alongside Booboo, Ouchi and Prang.

Only Carlton provided details and they didn't include a score just that the amalgamated team won.

from the article: "The other three teams (Melbourne, Richmond & Essendon) are yet to provide details on their side of the outing."

I think the Tigdeeboms got up at the end!

I prefer Melmond Bombers

Good idea and I did wounder how long it would take for this to be come an eventuality.

Takes me back to junior and my reserves footy days.  Was pretty common place to for someone to loan the opposition some players if they were way too short, so at least everyone got a game.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
