Pfft, an Irishman playing for Melbourne, what an absurd notion

Next thing you know he'll want to be President...

On a side note, I would be keen if it was after the uni exam period.

count me in

going to need some organising though

can the carlton people who want to play contact me ??

I am sure we can accomodate you...

home 5721 9701...

work 5722 1594...

mobile 0408 698 328...

email [email protected]

hope to hear from you this weekend...

I'm in. Hopefully a cooler weekend than last time

Warnock, $$ Judd...yep count me in!

haven't heard from Fullmont, or anyone else from talkingcarlton yet...

if and when I do, I will come with the full proposal to the "leadership" group, and we can take it from there...

I hear that Gosch's Park (aka Punt Road, aka Collingwood's Training ground) is not available because the turf is being dug up at the moment...

anybody know ??

I will swing past the oval tonight after work have a look and let you know ASAP.

Rollinson, sure you aren't thinking of Windy Hill?

:angry: :angry: :angry:

just heard that our 7 foot ruckman, Cribbes, is unavailable... <_<

that will even things up for the Judd-stealers all right...

give us some good news, people...

I, Big Danny G of the TalkingCarlton forum can confidently predict that i will be BOG and the reason why TalkingCarlton will smash you demons by 10+ goals.

My possy count will be 30+, disposal efficiency of 90+, and 5+ goals. You will be golf clapping my brilliance as the ball sails over your heads.

Good luck guys

Cribbes would've been a liability. 7 feet up, just more time for me to read the ball as it comes down my throat. Could've been devastating. Great first up move by the selection committee.

I think we have discovered the Yze_Magic of the TalkingCarlton forum

Count me in. I'll start training now and should be in peak fitness by game day.

majority of the leadership group, including both coaches, have already indorsed this contest and this date...

we will be playing talkingcarlton on Sunday, November 2 at 2pm...

the venue will be glenferrie oval if gosch's park is not available...

I have sent emails to past players and supporters...

new players should know they are most welcome...

the bench rotates constantly and everyone gets as much game time as they want (or can stand)...

new supporters should know the same (we can never get enough extra water delivered to the venue at this time of the year)...

with exams looming, this is a good time for talkingcarlton to try to ambush us... <_<

perhaps they have underestimated the pent-up anger and frustration we are still feeling over season 2008...

give us some positive "I will be there" posts now please...

Big Danny, I think i'm in love!

I'll take you down though, you'll be like a blonde, fun and easy.

But yeah, i'll happily take a wing. Been playing a bit of indoor lately, so should be good in 12 meter sprints...

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.

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.

'That's what I'm talking about' guys....COMMITTMENT

Good boy 45hotgod.

There has been a request from resident demonland 'rollinson_65' on the TC forum for a member of our leadership group to come on here and tell of how many goals we're going to beat you guys. Now, as the spiritual leader of TalkingCarlton i've taken the duty upon myself.

Luckily i'm not one to make outlandish claims of how much we're going to win by, or how well some of players are going to perform. Instead i like to keep it realistic. I'm not going to put any expectations on any of the other boys.

Instead, i'll make my judgments on the basis that all demons are just like Dean Bailey. Bald, ugly, past it, and poofs.

I'll only make one promise that i can back up. That Big Danny G could beat 22 Dean Baileys by himself.

Brock On!

I heard a rumour that the talkingcarlton.com team is pretty much a bunch of Wayne Brittains, never has-beens with paedophile-esque grins who probably still can't tell the difference between rugby and AFL.

Confirm-Deny Danny?

99% in, just need to check dates with work.

steady down, 45hg...

don't give them material for the pre-match coach's rev...

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?
