Hi guys.

I trust that your training and preparation has been meticulous.

I want to post a starting 18 tonight or tomorrow so last chance to get your positional preferences in. If you are a KPP, let me know. And if you are a ruckman, let me know. If you are a specialist starter on the bench then let me know that as well. If you have an endurance or body girth impairment, let me know so I know to rotate you for rest.

The gameplan is simple and revolves around a similar exciting style to that used by Dean Bailey. Obviously we won't need to break tight zones, but I expect a flowing game using the corridor as our prime platform for forward 50 entries.

Rollo, if I need to erase any off my list who are Demonology players not at my disposal, please let me know who they are.

Countdown is on boys. Turn up focused and ready to play... for the Bananabenders and for our great club!!!

Are we playing on the ground the intra club match was played on or the more southerly ground down towards the bridge?

we have lost helpers why you little and dee knees...

if I haven't heard from others "to be confirmed" by 12pm tomorrow, I will delete them from the list...

talkingcarlton are way down on numbers, so the game will be 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...

here is the updated list from here and demonology...

I'll do a J**d style dog switch to the other side's coaching panel if nobody else is putting their hand up. Cue instant ban from Demonland for masterminding their downfall.

Guys I have some bad news

Last night I was at my mums house helping her move a antique tv cabinet and after loading it into the truck i jumped out and landed on the side of the gutter ,. long story short I broke my heel :(

Posted

well, we turned up to play...

but the talkingcarlton guys came up with only 2 people to start, and a third wandered in at three-quarter time...

even more disappointing, the promised numbers from demonology did not materialise...

(an inquiry at demonology will be held)...

so, it was demonland A playing demonland B, who had a small amount of help from talkingcarlton/demonology...

teams reduced to 13 a side, so we kept the quarters to 15 minutes...

even so, there were some very tired players at the end of the game...

(nobody volunteered to help out the nick's collingwood site, who were due to play bomberblitz after our game, and also way down on numbers)...

The A team came from way behind to snatch an impressive victory, 8.12 60 to 8.6 54...

vin cottogio award for best dees player went, no surprises, to charlesy...

goalkickers: scotty(2), heater(2), steve(2), toot(2), charlesy, funky41, jacko, happeninghaunts, fitzy, rodney jetta, wonnabeeri, second steve...

more later...

Thanks heaps for the game guys (especially organisers), had a lot of fun despite the poor numbers and clearly getting robbed by some creative scorekeeping from Rollo1 :)

I love this photo. This is a 52-year-old Jetta leaving me in his wake. Legend. :)

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.
