Not saying your opinion is wrong Pag, but here is another pov that I'm ok with.
I went to the club forum last month and from memory Mr. Kernahan said he had consulted the RSL and they presented no objection to games commencing before noon. An extract from the document e-mailed out reads....
2014 Club Forum document wrote:ANZAC Day
Check with local RSL if they are participating ie Presenting medals
No recognised Etiquette outside of what formal activities the RSL undertake
RSL prefers as many people on the whole celebrate ANZAC Day
Oakbank Races
Two races run before 12
The Oakbank races given as an example and the gist of it being the more people that observe and recognise ANZAC day and all it represents, the better.
On an side note, I thought we commemorate on this day, not celebrate on it, I may be splitting hairs.
