Great work, Barnesy.

Would you be interested in having a one off game with another forum prior to the end of the year?

First Sunday of December?


Yeah mate sure....maybe second sunday - give us an extra week to prepare

venue
forum against
our team

thoughts -

if we get a venue first and foremost we can work around the other things

forum against

we would get numbers

Lets get cracking -

The round robin idea in November and February is a concrete idea, independant forum games are upto the individual forums.

I'm going to try Collingwood first.

However, I need an invitation code first from their admin before I'm allowed to post on their site. Once I get that, I'll put a thread requesting a match against them.

I've made contact with Nicks Pie Page.

They would rather not play if they have to play in the same heat as we played in during the round robin. They are also concerned about numbers.

I've suggested playing earlier in the day. Be there by 11, start at 11:30 and be done by around 1. The first game at the round robin started at 1 so we were playing in the hottest parts of the day. If we can play earlier, we may avoid that heat.

What does everyone think?

in your dreams, JB Junior...

Rollo

How about we mark down the first Sunday after each Melbourne Cup as a round robin day or forum game day?

If you guys are in and we are in we can firm it up with the other forums?

Also pick a date in late Jan or Feb (but must stipulate an early start due to possibility of hot days?)

My suggestion is:

November (Sunday after Melbourne Cup Day) - preferably round robin format

Third Sunday in February - 10 am start (due to possibility of hot weather)

If you are happy with that I will stir interest this end and ensure a base it set to work with.

By firming these dates up we heighten awareness through having concrete dates, which people then put in their calendars and work around, it is also easier to organise umpires etc....

Let me know please and I will take it up our end and work with you...

Barnesy

ps - i passed that exam and the unit


hey, barnesy...

surprise, surprise, but I rapidly lose interest in this forum when forum footy is not on the agenda... :smoking:

I would have missed this post if another demonology poster had not told me about it...

I think it is a great idea...

if talkingcarlton and demonology/demonland agree on set dates each year, then we at least know we have a game, even if we can't interest other forums in a round robin...

let's agree on dates in february and, as well as the usual suspects, I will suss out the kangas, port adelaide, richmond and Essendon*...

best to communicate with me by phone or text...

congrats on your results... :thumbsup:

regards,

rollo :twisted: :twisted:
