Any ideas on when this will be held and the rookie draft?

We usually have it before the NAB cup starts, which is Feb 11, which isnt that far away......

by **croz** on Wed Jan 19, 2011 12:59 am

Does it need to be a Friday? If so...the 4th or 11th look like obvious choices.

Other nights I can be available for are Thursday and Saturday. However, Saturday would be impossible to get all together as no doubt some would have plans on the weekend (dinners etc).

Lets get the discussion started.

I'm up for either dates.
Before the NAB would be good...

The 11th would be better as I have taken 2 weeks off from work and the 4th is my first week back so I might have trouble getting a half day off. But if necessary I can call in sick if its the only date that suits everyone else.

Fridays would probably be the best day as it might suit more people. Personally I would love it to be a Saturday afternoon deal, where we could have the draft & perhaps a BBQ etc. But finding a location and a date where everyone is free might be too hard.

We talk every year about moving from Friday but I can't see any other day being popular.
That said, I will defer to the Exec to make the call.

11th is no good for me fellas....sorry......

by **Macca** on Sat Jan 22, 2011 11:25 am

BTW I have seen at least 15 banana kick goals in 2010 better than that soccer goal in your signature Peeeezos.
Leon Davis does one of them a week and cant even make the starting team at CFC.

4th or 11th are fine.............yes it's me and i am alive. One thing, who won last year !!!

i know youre baiting...but i'll bite...

2 things...

1 - its easier to 'banana' kick an egg shaped ball

and

2 - the essential element which makes aussie rules easier to play... HANDS!!

BTW - that roberto carlos free kick is used to study physics at secondary level....

unless something unavoidable comes up......any other date after that should be ok.....

See thats where you are wrong...it is not 'easier' to banana an egg shape ball at all. It requires expert application of skill and the hands complicate things. Kicking across your body like Carlos Montana or whatever his name is a natural skill that anyone can do.

Soccer skills are fundamental kicking skills. The egg shape ball gives our version of football a seriously unique set of demands.

by Megabonus on Sat Jan 22, 2011 10:46 pm

i challenge you on the day of the draft..... i'll bring a ball from both codes and we'll shoot it out O.K. Corral style.....

i started playing footy as a youngster and switched at the age of 10, youve told me it was the other way round for you - seems a fair challenge.

dont you go back peddling now.....

So I presume the 4th is also out.

The next date is the 18th of Feb. - Round 2 of the NAB Cup (School Week 3).
I'm available.

by **Macca** on Sun Jan 23, 2011 9:50 am

I am no good 18th Feb. Sorry.

im just assuming the 4th being the 1st friday back, many schools might have a staff get together on that night.....

by **Macca** on Sun Jan 23, 2011 10:05 am

4th is ok for me.

We are having our this Friday.
So the 4th is still good for me.

by **Jason** on Sun Jan 23, 2011 12:06 pm

Sorry to throw a spanner in the works but the 4th is no good for Josie and me unless we can find a baby sitter for Sienna. My parents who would normally do the job as they live around the corner for us are away.

by **trucker** on Mon Jan 24, 2011 3:58 am

I cant do the 4th, but 11th, 18th etc are all good

by **croz** on Mon Jan 24, 2011 5:52 am

4th no good for me also. Thursday 10th?

by **gerry** on Mon Jan 24, 2011 10:29 am

Thursday? Not really suitable. I'd rather try for a Saturday or Sunday than a Thursday.

Are we back to the Friday the 18th?

by **croz** on Mon Jan 24, 2011 10:49 am

We could do the 18th, and ask all coaches not to watch the games, read the paper, ask anyone for information on the games or check the internet?

by **Macca** on Mon Jan 24, 2011 11:42 am

I cant be there on the 18th.

by **Milnee** on Mon Jan 24, 2011 12:44 pm

OK guys we need a commitment.

3.00am, one seedy bar or dark lane, sometime before the season begins.

Having said that I am not available on the 11 or the 18th so for me the 4th is still the most viable option. Or Saturday the 5th.

by **croz** on Mon Jan 24, 2011 9:01 pm

I won't be in Adelaide on the 5th.

Perhaps we should all just have the year off and set a date NOW for the PSD 2012?

by **trucker** on Tue Jan 25, 2011 4:36 am

If it is during after the NAB cup, then that is no real big deal

okay I can potentially get out of my commitment on the 18th. I will not however do that until you guys on the Exec canactually say it will be on that date. I will be disappointed if I rearrange things and then we don't have it on the date.

My own belief is that you guys need to email everyone and get dates that people CAN'T do and then choose a date with that in mind.

This process happens every year... Those who visit the board to and fro over dates, come to agreement then a person who doesn't visit the board says "sorry... No can do" and were back to square one.

All this requires is someone to open full communication with everyone and then a logical deduction process.

Let's just get on with it ey? Rolling Eyes
