Firstly I figure the side will be Tasmania related, not Hobart or Launceston to avoid the split allegiances.

Do you think the side will be Tassie, Tasmania or Tasmanian?

Obviously Tigers and Devils are the first things that come to mind for the team name but probably can't be used for obvious reasons. Has anyone got any better ideas?

The Apples?

The Quolls?

The Frogs?

The Blue Gums?

Pretty average, but am trying to think of something Tasmanian. Any better ideas, or maybe something completely different?

'Map Of's'. :lol:

Previously sides from Tassie have been : Tasmanian Devils and the underage side playing as Tassie Mariners.

The Tasmanian Devils are a thing of the past; how about the Tasmanian Tumours.

Can we have devils and demons in the same comp? i can't really see a reason why not if the jumpers are different? Maybe a black/brown jumper with a white horizontal stripe like a tassie devil?

Tasmania Kangaroos?

Beat me to it HT, Its a perfect fit. Play 6-8 in tassie and the big games at the G/Dome.

The only other one that comes to mind is the tassie power!

I lived in Tassie for 5 years. Every team in Tassie is a Devil or a Tiger it is bloody boring and predicable.

However If any team was formed in Tassie It should be called the "TATERS"

We used to go to Nth Hobart oval and watch the Devils play when they were good under Ex Dee Beams. We called them the taters.

We named all the players, Wedges, Gnocchi, The Masher, Spud, Kennebec, Pink eye, Chips, Frenchy, Jason Heatley was still called the Heater though.

We called Nth Hobart over The Deep Fryer.

It was great. The next year another group of drunks were also calling them the Taters and even had there own T Shirts made up.

So if any Team came from Tassie they should call them after what it is really famous for......the good old spud.

GOOOOO TATERS!!!!

That is probably close to the most stupidist thing I have ever read.

"The friendly family club" :)

I think "The mighty Apples" would be great. They can get the fruit people to sponsor them, and have a large apple running around the field.

Maybe go with a green uniform and use it to camouflage their players on the field for sneaky possession, they could colour match to the grass, be stealthy team....

or could they go with something like the 'southern sharks?' or tasman somethings? rather than tasmania...

southern stars? with a southern cross on the jumper? doesn't sound great to me but the type of thing the afl would go for.

i'd prefer to see the afl stick with traditional type team names, 2-3 colours with big broad jumpers (stripes, sashes etc), and a song that is recorded by with about 10 blokes singing and a brass band backing it.

Yeah but if ya ship richmond tigers off to Tassie, you get the 'TASSIE TIGERS'.. ive been calling for it for ages, give heaps to the tigers supporters at the herald-sun

God i hate the tiges and their supporters.. and wallet, i mean wallace..

the yellow strip could be turned horizontally, then add the bottom part to form a big 'T' (for tassie tigers)

and they could put the map of Tassie, right on the front of their white shorts, cause we all know how they're a bunch of [censored]. ;)

I agree with ya keep it traditional and oridginal and the song well look at ports and freos,

I dont no about the southern cross its to iconic.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.
