How do you approach this Wednesday's ANZAC Day clash with Central District?

Godden: "This Wednesday is a really awkward one. It's ANZAC Day, it's a passionate day and means a lot to a lot of people. It means a lot to our club. But no one is going to come now. No Eagles people are going to show up and rightly so. I'd imagine your Doggies fans will show because they'll want a bit of revenge from last year. I'm basically gearing myself for the South game in two weeks. So we'll train (Sunday), we'll train (Monday), we'll train Tuesday and if they're sore and they're tired on Wednesday then what's the difference? We're getting smashed anyway. We need to plan more advance because you can't turn things around in four days from a physical point of view. You can start to put the wheels in motion for the future."

i've see Wwt 3 times this year & while i know they have some players out including key players i think they've change their gameplan & if i'm right i ask why would you change a gameplan that worked last year ?

crowd from memory was 4,054 (or very close to that)

Players warming up and goal kicking whilst ANZAC's were BEHIND the goals

NOT SURE.

As the players entered the ground the ANZAC's were doing their lap of the oval

?..YES

The presentation and national anthem were very poor and not heard...

YES BUT WAS MAINLY LOUD BUT DID GO UP & DOWN A BIT & SOUNDED STATIC (LIKE A RADIO NOT ON THE STATION PROPERLY)

If this is accuurate the WWT Football club and those directly involved should be disgusted on putting on such amateur stuff for such an important moment. I don't like calling clubs businesses but if it was my business I would be extremely disappointed and asking serious questions. Lets hope it is not quite true.
