New Zealand 2015- Anzac day
http://www.afl.com.au/news/2014-08-09/n ... nzac-clash
11 am into eastern states may be testing the friendship with many- I would have thought 12 more likely and push the Essendon Pies back a little... 2.45
how long before Eddies responds?

Most people are awake by then.
That gives a 1pm kick off in Welly which is great for families. Might head over there again now!

Re: New Zealand 2015- Anzac day
We need the money, and why would 11am bother any Saints supporters, unless they're involved in the march?

Re: New Zealand 2015- Anzac day
they query I would expect to come would be from the historic ' general concensus' across Australia ( and NZ although it will be later then) that events / shops/ etc etc not resume business till after 12... and Marches in Australia will barely be finished..- if not finished by the time the game starts
not a concern from saints supporters.

Re: New Zealand 2015- Anzac day
So that's 9.00am for our Perth supporters..... They should be back from Dawn Service by then (unless they caught up in the two-up crowd)

Re: New Zealand 2015- Anzac day
Got to say its pretty ordinary having sport on before 1pm. I know its only on TV but that has been the rule for years in Australia and IMO should still be the rule even if the game is in NZ.

Re: New Zealand 2015- Anzac day
I will personally feel a bit awkward having a beer before 12pm.

I dont care if they play good friday but i also dont think they need to. A Friday without footy doesnt hurt anyone and it wont be the Saints involved most likely so its just another game on the background at my annual GF BBQ.
Yep i know its only TV and I know the march is finished but it has been tradition or maybe even a rule that there can be no paid sport on before 1pm on Anzac day and even though its on TV I would really like that to continue. Im sure many couldnt give a rats but I do. Got no idea what the immigrants have to do with anything.

Disrespectful to the Anzacs and their memory to have it on prior to 12.00 pm.

Ok so make it a 12.10 start then and push back the Eddoefest game an hour.Bunk_Moreland wrote:Disrespectful to the Anzacs and their memory to have it on prior to 12.00 pm.
Speak to your local RSL about it and they can lobby on your behalf .

You may not respect what returned servicemen and women did for this country but I and millions of others do, and couldn't give a stuff about some pissant football match.
I hate this disrespect. Appalling

I never said I disrespected them. Make it 12 and all is fine.
Shame you are treating our huge money spinner with disrespect calling it a pissy footy match.
New nick, same attitude sadly.

Re: New Zealand 2015- Anzac day
Right? Maybe the day should be one of quiet reflection?

Re: New Zealand 2015- Anzac day
I prefer it that way. If it was a daytime slot we would have beaten Brisbane due to not having a wet grassy night.

They haven't taken into account those who will have a hangover that day

Footy is too self obsessed at the moment.
Too opinionated.
Flexing its muscles.
Keep it simple already.
