Dunno why the pies forum should be keen to play in early october, since they are still in the finals ... but they have been in contact, and tell me that Vic Park will be available only on Sunday, 3 October or the following Sunday, 10 October.

Are we interested in playing this early?

If so, do people have a preference for one of these dates?

Forum Footy players and organisers, please post on this thread and I will get back to the Pies organisers...

btw, their idea is to invite a total of 4 sites (including them) to field teams on the chosen day ...

Rollo. Brilliant!

I'm living in Shanghai nowadays, but as luck would have it I'm back in Australia over those weekends.

I'd love a run and can probably bring a few extra numbers.

will need your strict promise, wise, that you will not (without provocation) set out to permanently injure the opposition players...

(not that there is anything wrong with that, but it looks good in print)...

Rollo, you're cheeky, but you have whatever assurances you need that I will not play outside of the spirit of the game.

There were no issues last year...

It's only Carlton I've historically had troubles with - and I've received more cheap shots than I've given fair hits from that mob.

What is this?

Do Demonland members play matches against other teams forum members?

It seems that they do and have been quite successful in the past :).

I'm available on 3 October but not 10 October (going to a wedding).

I have someone who might coach the team who coached at VAFA Under 19 level who I think is quite good and would fit in well with the players. He's a Demons supporter of course as is his brother who is a gun footballer with a basketball background who could be our very own Jack Watts playing at CHF (194cm etc). Don't know yet if either of them is available but I take it there are no objections if I take it further.

:( I need operations on both hips. I'm out for this season. May try to make a comeback next year if the surgeon says it's ok. But I'm in serious doubt and more likely than not have played my last game in the red and blue guernsey of Demonland.

I could be that tall skinny Cale Morton player. IN!

If I was playing, (which I won't) I'd take that role off you at 174 cm and 55 kg...thing is being 15 I'd get my ass kicked

Hey... I never misdiagnosed an ACL. I was non-committal. I told whoever it was (?Riv) that he needs to be examined again as it's often hard to tell straight away. Was it an ACL?

    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,

    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
