Speaking of netball, I played at Melbourne High tonight and landed badly on my ankle. :angry:

I've had it on ice all night, but the way it feels at the moment I'm touch and go to be right for Sunday.

Irrespective of whether it comes up, I'll be at the game. Rollo, worst case scenario is you'll get that goal umpire we need.

If we have enough on the bench, we might rotate the boundry umpire role among the benchees. It'll keep us warm when not on the field.

    Disappointing Wise...

    Why did you need to mention Melbourne High? Surely the courts at that wonderful, wonderful Castle of education aren't to blame for your injury...

    ;)

    That's bad news Wise :angry:

    Hope you can get it going for Sunday!

    Big weekend for us. I'm trekking to Geelong tomorrow for the clash and am ready for Sunday as are my two mates (Trav & Dave).

    Can't believe we have no boundary riders! Guys, bring along some mates of mates who are passionate for the Dees or if footy is their thing. We need them!

    "I'm touch and go to be right for Sunday."

    bloody hell, wise... :o:o

    between you and cribbes and ruckle and madness...

    it looks like a conspiracy to give poor old rollo a heart attack and an early grave...

    btw, people, there is no after-match function organised yet... :unsure:

    sainters usual people are either unavailable or uncontactable...

    I will keep trying... :rolleyes:

    also, wise, I assume you will post the final list on here ??

    My ankle hasn't come up well today, but fingers crossed it'll be right to go on Sunday. I might have to play deep in the forward line to limit the mileage.

    Blessed_Hands can ruck till Cribbes arrives, then they can rotate for the remainder of the match.

    We're a couple of talls down now, but with a dozen available on the bench we might wait till we see who shows up on Sunday before finalising the line up.

    "Final line-up..."

    glad to see your ankle has come good, wise... :rolleyes:

    last reminder to all...

    bring your own water (to start), sunscreen, and spare footy jumpers if you have them...

    we haven't played at gosch's paddock before, but it sounds like footy boots will be fine, and players won't have to resort to alternative footwear...

    that's a good-looking bench we have there... :rolleyes:

    It hasn't Rollo. I can't even run on it, let alone think about changing directions. :mellow:

    But I'll strap it up and give myself a last minute fitness test before kick off... with a little luck I'll be good for a cameo in the forward pocket.

    Leaving Healesville now, see you all down there.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
