[melbournefc 18]

Team list updated at 6.40pm. See above post.

[Guest IKTPQMCR]

[Guest grant]

Im down!

[Whispering_Jack 28,067]

Im down!

My nephew Pringle (wore # 5 with distinction in the last game - but then I think we had about three or four wearing that number) is currently in Bangalore following the test. I have a feeling he could be back in town by then. If he is, I'm sure he'll want to play as long as the somosas, papadams etc don't get to him first.

[biggestred 4,368]

Sorry mate, just a rumour. But [censored] with a "character" (note the mocking quotation marks) like Dean Bailey leading such an "enigmatic, exciting" (note the mocking quotation marks) "football team" (note the mocking quotation marks) i really struggled to find words that i could make fun of your team with.

Seriously though, and i'm not even joking, as demon supporters you can't possibly expect to win anything let alone a forum footy game. I'm really pulling at straws but i can think of two positives for you guys. 1. That the game isn't very important so if you lose it doesn't really matter and 2. Again, that the game isn't important, meaning you guys might perform.

Good luck though, provide a contest.

Also a challenge to your coaching panel. Corral, or tackle me?

speaking of ammo.............

anyway im a maybe.

i havent played footy at school but ive been playing soccer.

but i was a forward at school.

use me in the norm smith CHF "decoy" role if you want. haha

[dazzledavey36 49,196]

sorry guys love 2 but i gotta head off to adelaide to train with west adelaide in the SANFL.

[rollinson 65 181]

"My nephew Pringle..."

hey, WJ, pringle already posted...

[rollinson 65 181]

in terms of a name for the trophy, somebody on talking carlton has mentioned earl spalding...

we play saintsational for "big carl"...

what about we play the bluebuggers for "the duke" ??

(sorry, I meant to say BLUE BUGGERS...)

[rollinson 65 181]

"sorry guys love 2 but i gotta head off to adelaide to train with west adelaide in the SANFL."

bloody hell, dazzle, you always have iron-clad excuses... :angry:

you win the award for the poster who has appeared most times in these footy forum threads without ever having bloody-well played... <_<

but, seriously, hope you do well over there...

[Dappa Dan 2,188]

I'm definitely in, love the forum games. Put me down for a forward pocket but I'll gladly be relegated to the bench when we get a full team happening.

I have a feeling we'll end up with a team full of FPs....

Last time I volunteered to play a couple of quarters in the pocket I played a half on the wing, then a quarter each at CHF and CHB!!!

There'd better be a bench when I rock up.

[rollinson 65 181]

hey, melbournefc, heard from The Stynes Factor and he is keen to play again...

please add him to the list...

[rollinson 65 181]

and add in redleg...

happy to coach again...

[Cameron the Bruce 1]

I have a feeling we'll end up with a team full of FPs....

I think everyone rates themself as a bit of a goal sneak!

Any word from big Billy? blessed_hands absolutely dominated for us in the last game

I'll most likely be unavailable. Derby Day's on the Saturday & I'll have uni assignments due the following week. I'll try my best to make it, but I doubt I'll be able to make it.

All, with only a couple of weeks before kick off, we need committment, posts and complete dedication from each and every one of you. If you can play, confirm, if you are a maybe, keep this forum post as up to date as possible so we can get a true indication as to who is IN and who is OUT. We encourage all to bring other Melbourne supporters or even the occasional social football or recreational football players with them, or nominate them onto our playing list. All welcome. These are social games with a taste of fun footy flair. What we need now is committment from everyone. If you are unable to play, we encourage you to nominate and assist in other forms ie: drinkboys or drinkgirls, time keepers, goal and boundary umpires or even a photographer. What good is a day out if there aren't any photographs or very famous club song on video at the end of the day! These forum games make for a great day, and is our prime opportunity to put on the mighty RED and BLUE jumper and represent our great club.

All positions will be decided by the coaches, captain and/or the leadership group on the day.

Leadership Group, if I have left something out, please edit and post.

GO DEES.

Let me know if you need a goal umpire or something. Just not a masseur.

Happy to help out.

[Trisul 640]

I'd be in a rather large amount of trouble if I missed the wedding, so will have to give playing a miss. Still hope to make it for a look at the 1st quarter.

[Guest skipper3]

Cant play due to recovering from an ankle reco - but, will am ready willing & able to help out with whatever is needed.
