    WOW. The past catches up with us all. Lively political discussion about the Szondy-Gutnick confrontation, a fair bit of personal abuse (where were the mods then?) and this gem from Deebest commenting on Spunjy's (now Axis of Bob) draft preview:-

    Bartel is the biggest certainty to be going to Geelong. I perhaps wonder about Del Santo at nine (Melbourne's pick). The height thing - he might be too short considering we need key positions?

    Well, history shows that we didn't take Del Santo at #9 but took Luke Molan instead and while D S might be criticised for a few aspects of his play, I don't think we should have worried about his height or lack thereof.

    And just a little quiz - in the same draft, Melbourne selected a player who went on to play in a premiership team. Who was he?

    Nah, it was that one. We moved straight from Aimoo (the setup in that snapshot) to this setup at the end of '05.

    I joined Demonland and Demonology at the same time in 2003.

    Just on the archive, checkout some of the 'political' threads there. Jeez Fan (then Deefan) was an agro bugger back then! :D

    Takes me back to stinking hot days logging onto the old bucket of bolts that was the Pentium, checking out the latest from the Oracle. Good stuff.

    (edit: oh! and i wish the Nick Gill article was archived!)

    Great pick up Rusty.

    Its a pity that when moved from Aimoo we lost the history archive there could be some real flashbacks and some embarrassing recalls.

    Good salvage nevertheless.

    Geez Anonymous was active back then.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.
