The answer, at the time, was Mother's Day. It was in an old "ROAR" magazine so the situation could be different now.

Many of us have fond memories of this day.

With a few Mondays thrown in. Incidentally the loss to Freo was our 1000th in the VFL/AFL.

great post, but the days highlighted in red seem stangely unbalanced considering we play a lot of sundays and rarely play on a monday. amazing if thats true (and i have no reason to doubt you LTRTR).

It was one of those days where everything went right. The ball just coming to me . . . I had guys like Matty Knights, Craig Lambert and Tony Free, coming out of the centre and giving me some good passes. And, I was lucky enough to kick pretty well that day, too . . . the wind just seemed to take it through the goals . . .

LMAO no mention of Campbell coming out of the centre and giving him good passes even though he was named in the best.

One of those 2 Tuesdays I can still remember was Anzac Day Eve match against North (Carey) in 1995. Great night that was in many ways.

i'm 99% certain that was a monday night.

i'm 99% certain that was a monday night.

Yep, our four Tuesday games have been on Anzac Day (1961, 72, 78, 89).

that game in 89 must have been the fitzroy game i was referring to earlier.

Unless L2's stats are only for AFL Saturday games were all there were in our hey day. Sundays and Mondays have become more common in latter years when we've been crap.

 

[spook]

I dare say we played on a lot of Easter Mondays even in VFL days.
