Expecting our first child on December 6 and would otherwise play. Cousins, Pringle and possibly 2 of his brothers to play!

Oops ... That's my real life cousins ... :wub: not Ben!

pringle has another brother ?? :blink:

He actually has three brothers and a sister. He is second of four boys and then finally a girl.

well, that explains...

nothing basically... :wacko:

sainters are offering to play us at the old arden street ground...

thoughts anyone ??

As in the Kanga's training ground? Yeah why not...

Gosch's paddock ought to be patched up by now. Why have we ruled that out?

Or, Casey Fields anyone?? ;)

Honestly don't care where we play, just give me some grass to drive the bastards in to, a few posts to kick at, and I'm happy.

I'm so disappointed I won't be able to get to this game... It really is the only opportunity these days that I get to pull on the boots (however embarrassing the ensuing efforts with the football are)...

Give them hell for me!

"Gosch's paddock ought to be patched up by now. Why have we ruled that out?"

think the sainters are saying the parking is better at arden street, wise, and it's just as good for public transport...

Posted

now there is a question mark over whether or not arden street has a turf wicket set up... :wacko:

sainters will check out gosch's paddock again, and will get back to us...

I have heard from most of the leadership group and will confirm the venue on here asap...

diverted to arden street on my way to melbourne tonight...

lovely, forgiving surface, centre circle, goal posts, car park, close to public transport, no cricket wicket, perfect...

I'm a doubtful starter due to injury but I'll try and get down to watch. The Arden St ground isn't far from where I work, it's in good nick at the moment and no cricket is played there on weekends.

Posted

Yeah I do have way too many brothers but at least it's never too hard to find a willing partner to go to the footy on the weekend. BL3281 would be a great KPP. Carries a few more kg's than in his hey day, but has natural talent. I'll work on him. Dooky has already proven himself in Demonland colours and says he's a good chance to play. The last one is a bit of a p#$$y since he broke his leg 15 years ago. He reckons he was good before it happened... No one believes him. (I hope he reads this :lol: :lol: ). But I'll see if he wants to play... his wife may have a say in it though.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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
