Btw, i don't mind rotating thru the ruck/forward pocket again like last match, but let me know if i'll be rucking before match-day so i can come prepared and bring a shin-guard this time... Had what felt like a bit of the Jeff White 'gangrenous shins' after the last game... :lol:

I'm due to become a grandfather (again) on the day but should be right.

In view of today's news, perhaps we could have another award for the game - the Nathan Carroll Spitoon!

Awarded to the player with the rudest haircut?

Congratulation Rollo but I've already got three, the first was a girl and the other two are boys and will be CHB and CHF for the Demons around the time Jack Watts retires. Not that I'm putting any pressure on them.

BTW - how's Rivvo?

I will take you your three, and raise you my one, WJ...

she is already bench-pessing her own weight... :o

rivvo, at his last report, was improving with THE KNEE... :wub:

Your telling me Doggo. I only just got over my brusing and soreness!!!!

Rollo, I definatly in again. Pretty sure my mate james is as well, but I will confirm for sure.

I would prefer to play CHF/FF. Goals I can kick.....fitness for rucking I have not.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
