On the web site it says $807,295 but that implys only $82,295 has been raised outside the debt demoltion dinner. It also has not changed for about 10 days. I was under the impression that at least another $120,000 was raised at the ball on the 22nd of August.. Anyone got more insight?

Imguesing to be truthful but I think the figure on the webswite is interactive.. I.e its showing the debt in real time. Thats how it looks to me

Fairly certain the figure is incorrect. Even before ball there was a post with an updated figure above (by 80-100k odd) the 807k showing on debtdemolition.com.au. Perhaps the update was incorrect, but certainly the ball raised a hefty contribution not yet accounted for.

The figure on the website is a jpeg image, it is not interactive. It will only change when someone creates a new image and copies it over the top of the old one.

ok ill redefine... the figure is relatively current. Not so long ago it was 700 odd thousand..then it jumped back up most likely as another debt fell due.

Interactive then in the sense that someone does a weekly or fortnightly update...i.e. as they did with membership but not as frequent

Funnily enough, I rang the club yesterday to find out if that was the final total that was posted. According to the woman that I spoke to they are still sifting though the final cheques etc before posting the final amount.

god accounting takes time, as it would be embarrassing to over estimate and the revise it down, plus we have to wait for the cheques to clear and that seems to take forever whenever I get one :)

I'm sure the total on the website doesn't reflect money raised at the ball. Were the proceeds of that definitey for DD?

Btw, 1-2 weeks is a long time when the campaign is for 4 weeks bb :P

EDIT: Not that I think it hasn't been updated in two weeks.

We are still waiting... seems to be taking a hell of a lotta time.

I think that's because payments continue to trickle in...

And if you put a definite end date on it, then people stop donating once that is reached; why would you want to do something like that?

Pretty sure we're just waiting for the tally to actually be updated.

Unless we only got $1-2 for the ball either the proceeds aren't being added to debt demolition as advertised, or the tally on the site hasn't been updated for some time.

Yep. With a modest profit this year and all sorts of changes successfully made, we might just be alright.

One more big heave and we're there.

Then we can start working forward, getting ready to maximise the exposure and commercial value of the rise up the ladder, and we'll be established, strong and looking forward to our 200th birthday and onwards.

    The tough on baller won his second Keith 'Bluey' Truscott Trophy in a narrow battle with skipper Max Gawn and Alex Neal-Bullen and battled on manfully in the face of a number of injury niggles.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
