Just announced on SEN that every game between Carlton and Collingwood where Carlton is the home team will win the Richard Pratt Cup. Dedication to Dick and also awareness for Prostate cancer.

Peter Mac Cup alternates each year between being a Carlton home game or a Filth home game.

I'd say that Carlton's home game will now be called Richard Pratt Cup, with all the donations going to Peter Mac anyway.

I thought we used to alternate Peter Mac cup between us in terms of home games... might be wrong though

Nice to see another tribute to Dick but geez these trophies for home and away games shit me.

Does anyone really give a @#$%&!?

Only a (insert club with one lousy premiership) supporter could get excited about the annual "blah blah" cup.

Maybe the cup itself isnt the desire of the clubs, but matches like anzac day, peter mac cup, bob rose cup etc all raise money for great causes so it adds a little extra touch to the games which i enjoy.

Great tribute to dick. . .if it adds any extra emotion to our home games every year against these tossers and gets our boys any more riled up for a big win then im all for it.

..the money raised going to charity is great, the 'cup' itself i reckon is a bit of a needless trophy..

A quick visit over to Nicks BB or Magpies Bigfooty board really highlights the class of the Filth.

A better tribute should have been found than a cup for than every 2nd Pies game....would have preffered we change the John Nicholls medal to the DP medal, anything else but a meaningless every 2nd game againt Cwood cup.
