Ring when you know he is not at home and leave a message telling him you can't stand the cow he is marrying - being a girl, we just have to get to the messages first and that's guaranteed to get you of the list.........

They should have more sense and tough luck if half the guests don't rock up.

Just a SELFISH act! No one is more important than the GF - NO ONE!!!!

Yeah they're friends of my wife - I hardly know them. The groom is from Tassie, a solid footballing state, what was he thinking?

The marriage is doomed - if he hasn't go the balls to stand up to her about the date - it is history already!

Im getting married the week after the grand final. It makes perfect sense to me.

Getting married on Grand Final day is a crime and as Condemned said a selfish act especially if you are born and bread in Melbourne.

Tough spot to be in....

I have been there before though.... 2004 GF and I just told my mate the truth.... Being a bloke he understood.... Although he hates footy (there are a few of these pitiful humans) he is an A Grade cricket captain and I just told him that I would be having my wedding on Boxing Day when the time comes! Of course, this was the biggest empty threat in history!

I ended up rocking up to the reception at 8pm, fell out of a taxi, stumbled in to see everyone well on the way to being smashed, hooked up with a bridesmaid, still together and happy as hell....

The story is one of legend with the boys!

Good Luck :)

I had a mate who got married last year on the Friday night of the Prelim weekend, when Sydney played Fremantle. If Melbourne had beaten Freo, then I wouldn't have known what to do with myself as they would've been playing the same night of the wedding.

If Melbourne were playing in the granny and you had the opportunity to get a ticket ..... well I guess you'd have to sacrifice a friendship ;)

totally and utterly selfish act and un-australian too - weddings, reunions, birthdays, engagements of any sort should be banned during the month of september.

My only suggestion was that they need to be friends of your partner to give you any chance.

I missed the 1985 GF for the same reason.

Friends of the wife?

- simple, its her duty to explain your absence.

You just need to catch the game, and meet at the reception later, if that works.

If not, don't worry , you'll either all laugh about it in , say, 15 years, or they may never speak to you agin, in which case who cares anyway.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
