forgot to say, I am trying to find out why the MFC footy department directed tom scully not to keep his commitment to demonland on february 20, and I will post the reason on here....

Wasn't a biggie

As a sponsor I can request his attendance at one event a year. I sent the request through to MFC regarding this event and thus the post that he could attend. Speaking to the corporate people about the request and after a week the FD mentioned their concerns because they try to ensure the guys get Sunday off especially in the off season. I also txt Tom who mentioned he had a day off and a family event to attend. I then post that he couldn't attend.

The club came back to confirm what was occurring and if he was required to play because of training loads and injuries etc etc. By the look of it he could of been made to attend the event but personally I see the boys working every weekend during the season and after Tom told me about his family event I told the club we can rearrange. So with insistence he would of attended but I choose not to push it.

I'm always happy to donate his attendance at an event run by bigfooty or demonland for Melbourne fans but just this one go....

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

anybody with access to 20+ change-strip jumpers,or 20+ jumpers at all that can be easily distinguished from the MFC strip, please post on here or send me a pm...

"I should be available to play..."

have to consult my records, mick...

but I think if you play on february 20, you and doggo (if he turns up sober and is allowed to play)... :o ...will beat oxxx's record for the most forum footy games ever played for the red and blue... :blink:

and you will both be the only guys on the field who played in that first (remarkable, unforgettable) game against saintsational... :o

with a wet sail, and a genuine VFL player, they kicked 2 million goals in the last quarter, but we won by a point and an independent and unbiased goal umpy, to this day, stands by his decision... :)

Great memories from that 1st match Rollo! It's been a few years now hasn't it? I'm about a million kegs heavier than when we first started these games.

Unfortunately i won't be playing this year (or anytime soon). Battling some pretty bad chronic tendonitis in my left knee. Think this might be the end for this former Vin Catoggio Medalist's long and distinguished Demonland career, often marred by inconsistency, injuries, weight management and "off-field" issues... ;)

bananas is in, but will he want to play for demonology or demonland ?? This may be a hard choice for many of our players, who are members on both sites, but surely the first site you joined gets the nod ??

Against my better judgement I'll play if the numbers are crocked. Otherwise will stay in the commentary booth/assistant coaching.

hey, supermercado...

you are not the only bloke on here who can't count...

I have had pm's suggesting we cancel because our numbers are poor...

count them, please...

we have about 30 - 20 from here and 10 from demonology - and talkingcarlton have 13 at the moment...

please don't bring your footy boots...

like me, your talents lie elsewhere... B)

and look up the spelling of "judgment"...

adding an "e" where it doesn't belong is a generation Y thing...

like not being able to spell "definitely"...

regards,

rollo

judgment - Traditionally, the word has been spelled judgment in all forms of the English language. However, the spelling judgement (with e added) largely replaced judgment in the United Kingdom in a non-legal context. In the context of the law, however, judgment is preferred. This spelling change contrasts with other similar spelling changes made in American English, which were rejected in the UK. In the US at least, judgment is still preferred and judgement is considered incorrect by many American style guides.

Not to be pedantic in an otherwise unrelated thread BUT I did look up the correct spelling, and quoth the Oxford Style Guide...

In British English, the spelling judgment is correct when referring to a court's or judge's formal ruling, whereas the spelling judgement is used for other meanings

Seems to me that it's the Americans who like to drop the E every time. I would say at the very least both are acceptable spellings.

Update - What deevoted said first..

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak
