"Two suggested items not may have already been covered...

hey, pb...

there will be ice for the beer, but it is not to be wasted on injuries... :)

there will be the odd bandaid for the odd ankle, but you should bring your own strapping tape... B)

only two of our players have ever suffered injuries in these games...

jimi9 from demonland and rivvo from demonology...

they were accidents because both players were trying too hard...

not a bad record...

it's a social game, and all of the guys who have played can assure you that nobody gets ironed out, we all have to turn up to work the next day...

on the other hand, demonland has never had to face up to demonology before...

could be blood on the grass... ;)

OK, it's official...

the bluebaggers want to wear their CFC jumpers, so demonology will have to play with their MFC jumpers turned inside-out...

not such a great sacrifice to play on the winning team... :)

should be a great game but demonland, I fear, are going down... B)

Why do our jumpers have to be inside out?

"Why do our jumpers have to be inside out?"

hey, happening...

as far as I know, you are not a member on demonology...

so I assume you will be playing for demonland...

because talkingcarlton are way down on numbers, the game will be demonology/talkingcarlton versus demonland...

the demonland guys (including you) will be wearing the MFC strip, but the talkingcarlton guys will be wearing the CFC strip and the guys from demonology playing with them will need to wear their MFC jumpers inside-out to avoid confusion...

clear as mud ??

yes, we have no bananas... :)

talkingcarlton are way down on numbers, so the game is shaping as a contest between demonology/talkingcarlton and demonland...

talkingcarlton will be wearing the CFC strip, the demonology boys will need to wear their MFC tops inside out, and demonland gets to wear the colours...

A small point is 10.30 game commencement time or time to arrive?

Thanks

hey, pb...

we want everyone to turn up at about 10am...

here is a message I will be sending out soon to everyone involved:

"Reminder we are playing this coming Sunday, February 20 at 10.30 am at Gosch’s Paddock.

Melway map reference 2G E10.

TRAIN to Richmond station, walk south down Punt Road (city side). 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 parks in Swan Street. There is one east of the intersection with Punt Road and one west of that intersection.

WEATHER. Extended forecast says 22 degrees, numerous showers, mostly cloudy, cool. Maximum temperature 22 degrees. The operative word is “showers”, so footy boots are a must.

People, its Melbourne so bring WATER and SUNSCREEN!!!

Helpers, we have never had enough additional water, so please do not slack off on your commitments.

Everyone, please bring additional jumpers (if you have them) for players without.

Wolfmother is going to a lot of trouble to organise an after-match barbeque and we are trying to raise funds for the Flood Relief effort.

We are asking everyone to donate $20.00 (or whatever they can afford) to the Flood Relief effort.

See you Sunday at 10.00 am or thereabouts.

Players and helpers who have not committed, or who are late apologies, please update your status by posting on the thread on Demonland, by sending me a pm, or by texting me on 0408 698 328."

need somebody to put up their hand to coach demonology/talkingcarlton...

and still looking for a volunteer to be umpy's assistant...

some emails have bounced back, and not everyone is contactable by pm, so here is the message I have tried to sent out to everyone involved:

    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

    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
