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...

date and time : sunday, february 28 at 10am...

venue : gosch's paddock...

opposition : nick's collingwood site, bomberblitz, punt road end...

players : wise (captain), charlesy, heater, funky41, wolfmother, the russian, demon tingles, junior, deemitch, robbo 24, blessed hands, toot182, wise guy sam, scotty, luke, sean, jako, grimes4, tom1, richard, the stynes factor, dazzledavey36, tassie dee, mat, jay, corey, adam, nat, ox, tom2, rollo2...

players TBC (to be confirmed) : deanox, mickrocks1, doggo...

apologies : wonnabeeri, pringle, bennythejet, cribbes, melbournefc, supermercado, omit, Benno, captain concussion, rosso...

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... :)

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    TRAINING: Tuesday 28th May 2024

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin returned to the training track to bring you the following observations from Gosch's Paddock this morning. Beautiful morning for training.

Melky weighted and change of angles work. Salem has his individual program. White cap (no contact), Howes, Woewodin and Sparrow

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
