Just thought I would share a feel good story :P

My local football club Hackham Hawks, where I am the team manager of the seniors (and retired player) has won the Toyota/AFL Cash up your Club competition!

Channel 10 is coming down to the club on Thursday night to film a segment for 'Before the Game' (this Saturday night).... 'Fitzy' is interviewing our president and my mate who sent in the winning entry to the comp.... A representative from Toyota will be handing over the $10,000....

This is amazing.... I have attached the media release I was sent and it is worth a read.... You will soon see that we are worthy winners <_<

Also here is the link to the page on Toyota's website Winning Entry

Anyway, just thought I would let my fellow Demonlanders know that miracles do happen! And before anyone suggests it, I have already asked the president if we can donate the money to the Melbourne Football Club, but sadly his answer was not the one I was looking for :( Damn Crows supporter!

Nice one mate, congrats on the win.

It is pretty exciting really.... Will try and get my head on TV.... :lol: Might jag a role in Neighbours or H&A.... :lol::lol:

When a club loses 3 matches in a row with scores such as these....

63.29 v 0.1

65.32 v 0.0

66.41 v 0.0

I think they deserve a helping hand..... :o

I run the website and have stopped posting the damn scores.... It is beyond a joke :(

Rushed? :D

Congrats KrazyJay. Looks like your club does need all of the help it can get. That last score posted is a 437 point drubbing. :(

Yes, that last one was terrible.... We played the reigning premiers, who have won the last 4 flags.... Going for 5 in a row this season....

Here is our ladder position as of this week..... I can assure you it is a lot better than last season, where we finished with 239 pts for and 3780 against :(

P W L PF PA % Pts

14th Hackham 15 0 15 506 2832 15.16 0

Tonight should be a good night..... Fitzy will be giving us heaps of curry though, due to the fact that he played his junior football at a rival club....

    PREGAME: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    After two disappointing back to back losses the Demons have the bye in Round 14 and then face perennial cellar dweller North Melbourne at the MCG on Saturday night in Round 15. Who comes in and who goes out?

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    PREGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    The Demons head back to Melbourne after an embarrassing loss to the Dockers to take on the Magpies at the MCG on Kings Birthday. With a calf injury to Lachie Hunter and Jacob van Rooyen possibly returning from injury who comes in and who goes out?
