Craigeburn just popped up with a couple more recruits. Could be a very open season.

I don’t blame them. Not many breaks in local footy, in what is a long season, including pre season.
Why not give everyone a 4 day long weekend before the long grind starts.

In saying that, I went to one of them and it was a fantastic crowd.

Yeah it’s a big money revenue day but understand where UTR is coming from as you need a large number of volunteers to make it work which isn’t easy for some clubs especially over Easter weekend.

To come on bigfooty and blame a couple of rowdy supporters for pulling out of a marquee Good Friday game give me a spell, stop insulting peoples intelligence.

Where did I only blame the supporters? Grow a brain! I have the reasons but you choose to ignore them. Typical

Let’s be real. The rightful custodians of the GF fixture for Div 1 as a stand alone game restored. Unlucky to TL who have been in Div 2 wilderness thinking they could come up and demand hoisting the GF game- welcome to Div 1 footy TL’s but you’re not in a position to be making demands!!

Very cheeky.
Can’t wait to flog them.

Bit of tension between the HS/TL rivalry but do agree with the previous post as it was HS turn. They do a great day up there on GF.

Bissa he did say it was a load on the volunteers up there. Remember Roxy don’t predominantly have huge junior participation as per some clubs so can’t rely on junior parents to be available to help out. I seen the work keilor park did last year basically on the back of 3-4 people working there backsides off. The pres and vice president doing majority of work. That’s not sustainable or ideal.
Clubs like Hillside, Craigieburn do have good junior numbers so it’s a touch easier in many respects mate.

As always, never let the truth get in the way of a good story. The last Good Friday game between TL and HS was held at Hillside.

And which part of TL being relegated and in Div 2 for years automatically gives you a given right?this is the Truth , facts…… no mention of TL’s not being part of the GF with HS back in the day? BUT you lost the privilege. Earn respect now back in Div 1 just don’t stamp ur feet and demand it.

I have no problem with the load on volunteers argument whatsoever mate. It’s hard yacka for clubs i can appreciate that very much. It was the last dig at the volunteers coping abuse and not wanting that abuse again. No need for it. It’s a cop out. Because Roxy supporters are such angels, and it’s not the reason Roxy have pulled the pin on a great Good Friday game which had heightened the rivalry between these 2 clubs.

 

[TheSlapper]

Pretty sure I didn't say anything about given right or stamping feet. Just stating a fact.

It was CB turn to host and very disappoint this is not going ahead there has been a lot of work behind the scenes for this day to be successful like when they hosted in 23.

Was it considered for CB to try & get a new club for GF. Obviously Roxy was the ideal partner.

Makes sense Roxy v Craigieburn they also play for the Bridgewater cup
Roxy being a small club and from the sounds of it struggle for volunteers can’t continue.

It's not THE reason but it's one of the reasons. Hard to ask the few helpers to do it when that happens. But apparently you know more about what's going on at my club than me so feel free to enlighten me.

Just heard Harry Albon is training at Essendon, but will likely play most games at Craigeburn, which is a huge get considering he only played a handful of games last year.
