Another inept poster who completely misses the point - kudos to all those who had a real laugh at the post and took it with a grain of salt, something that poor old Before2Long can't comprehend. instead of maligning the name of a Paul Kelly classic as your username, why not use one from the Wiggles that best describes your standing, 'Wake Up Jeff!'

IT'S ONLY A RUMOUR!!!!!!!!!

Ease up now Jumbo, I don't mean to be personally attacking you, something you seem quite comfortable doing to me.

All I have done is kept record of those who have in one way or another attempted to validate the rumour at least in some part to be something resembling the truth, and I do so with tongue in cheek.

I actually love these kinds of rumours like this gem you have supplied, it allows me to drift into a fantasy world where Judd, Kerr and J Brown play for us, where we have all the supporters and money we could ever ask for, where essendon plays their home games in Canberra to cover their losses....

I guess I just thought there needed to be some accountability for rumours such as these, hence the list. One that I will bump in a few months time (if I remember) or when the $20mil cheque clears (though I am sure you'll beat me to it).

Which makes me think...

If you were confident in the rumour's authenticity you would be quite content to see this list being made, but seeing as you've gone and got all defensive about it I guess it means you know that it is a load of B/S.

Ahh well, nice to dream anyway.

Ok no problem.

PS I'm technically inept so I have no idea how to bump it to the top if it comes to fruition.

however it was just Aussie's old man

My thoughts too, while still not believing the rumour ;)

I think any sponsorship/donations will be announced on the 10th during the Debt Demolition Campaign. If there was a large donation in the wings it would blow away any other possible contributions and so it wouldn't be the first announced, not that it is likely to be true anyway of course

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
