hey, DR, how goes the raising of extra numbers so we can loan players to the other teams ??

I have tried all parking options over the years, and the best is the car park in swan street...

I know it costs money, but sunday rates are not too bad, and there is always room, and you don't have to drive for ages looking for a park, and you have better security for your wheels...

They are a slack lot over there, Only wise guy sam is available at this stage (he was an early nomination) to play for the demons (not the opposition).... I will keep on their case... maybe our coaching staff can fill a couple of spots????

well, here is an emotional moment or two...

posters from demonology make up about a third of our numbers on sunday, but shamed by the lack of support for these games on demonology, they have asked me to downplay the demonology effort and I acknowledge the message...

rollo2 is the only one of my sons ever to play footy (the other 3 only played soccer), but plagued as he was by knee injuries as a junior, I feel a bit afraid for more knee problems on sunday, followed by the wrath of mrs rollo, still he wants to play for the jumper just once and who can deny any of us that request ??

here is the updated game post...

Greetings Demonland

Really looking forward to Sunday.

It looks like I'll be representing Bigfooty all by my self.

This is my 1st year of forum footy (and my 1st game in a long time) so I was wondering what the uniform will consist of. I have my lovely red and blue Jumper, boots ($29 from k-mart, pro) and I’ll grab a new mouthguard on Friday. Do I need specific colours for my socks and shorts? Is their anything else I need to know?

Thanks

Wise Guy Sam

Gosch's Paddock...

Melway map reference 2G E10...

TRAIN... to richmond station, walk south down punt road (city side). Walk past the collingwood training ground. If you come to boulton parade, you have gone too far...

CAR... free parking may be available at the punt road oval. If not, you can try the richmond side streets south of swan street, but I prefer the commercial car park in swan street...

WEATHER... extended forecast says 23 degrees, morning showers and thunderstorms . The operative word is "showers", so footy boots are a must ...

people, it's melbourne so bring water AND suncreen !!!

helpers... we have never had enough additional water, so don't slack off on your commitments...

please bring additional jumpers (if you have them} for players without...

AFTER MATCH DRINKS... cricketers arms hotel, punt road, was closed last time, so follow the crowd...

see you sunday at 10am or thereabouts...

10.30am pies v dees

11.20am dons v tigers (extra players from other sites allowed on schoolyard pick)

12.10pm losers play

1pm winners play

2pm clean-up and pub time...

regards,

rollo

welcome back imtoohot and legend... :wub:

a couple of blasts from the past - we've got a fair few players who have never played with the legendary imtoohot, so we better introduce you guys to the playing group before the first game, and explain that they don't need to lead if imtoohot gets the ball, and they shouldn't get angry if imtoohot disposses them because he was the better option... :)

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
