Good Friday Proposal

[TigerTime]

spoke to sheedy yesterday when i went to pick up my bushfire appeal photo and we spoke about this topic.  sheedy is dead against the idea as am i.  for all you people who cannot live without footy just for one day in a weekend just says alot
but hey thats my opinion, we are all entitled to have one

footy on good friday to keep the Greeks in this country happy

[Mr Magic]

They should play today IMO.

Those who are religious don't have to watch it but I bet they would.

[mutes]

Richmond vs Western Bulldogs for me
gives the Bulldogs a chance to build thier membership base & be included in big games

I think there should be footy on Good Friday...and why not the Tigers. But if Collingwood don't get it, then they will try and block any other club...they cannot stand not being in the limelight!

Not everyone celebrates easter at the same time and second, this idea is about making as much cash as possible for Richmond, Its got nothing to do with living with or without footy - capish. And as for living with or without footy- averaging 10 posts a day on single footy forum probably says alot as well TT.

It's not about whether I can live with or without footy, it's about about being told what I can and can't do on my days off.

I am a trade unionist, but I don't tell non unionists what they can and can't do on Labour Day or a union organised RDO.

But you're right, everyone is entitled to have an opinion on the subject.

so now you are a statistician, and you would have no idea how many forums i post on daily when i have time. but you have your opinion, i have mine. does not make either of us right or wrong, you're the one with the ego problem not me.

lucky you hey, get to buy all your easter eggs and christmas presents a week late on special. well done.

What's that supposed to mean?

Geelong and Collingwood  want Good Friday to themselves. After only 55k last night that's hardly an endorsement crowd wise. In fact the Pies' crowds have been down in all 3 rounds so far. So much for carrying the rest of the comp  .

[Francois Jackson]

who cares what and who plays on Good friday. Honestly who gives a toss.

like someone has said before the casino is open so how can you compare that greed of a place, to a good old fashioned game of sport.

Get real footy should be played on this day.

[WilliamPowell]

I've always been against it and I haven't changed my view

It is actually one thing I reckon the AFL has got right

If footy has to be played then let it be more community focused

The idea of other leagues (eg country) playing today and taking the spotlight away from the main comp is a good one IMHO.

I've often though the VFL should play today and for one day of the footy year be the main draw card

what i find funny about people who dont believe in the days and dates of good friday or any other public holiday based on the catholic calender, they are quite happy to make the most of it and take the public holiday and either work for  double time and a half.  isnt interestering how so many non catholics or atheists take the easter and christmas holidays buys gifts for family and friends to celebrate an occassion they dont even believe in. i know i a bit off the topic but as i said b4 , imo Good Friday should reamian a non afl day.

your right about one thing, thats right off the topic.

FYI i am catholic but i still say we should play on Good Friday. I just dont get how a place like the Casino is open, for all it stands for is greed then a game like Aussie rules which is a group of guys playing their national sport is not allowed to be played on this day.

what has the casino got to do with the afl and their decision

if you are that desparate to do something on good friday, then go to the casino and blow your dough
