I share your pain Nasher, but i am not a mod and have no powers on Demonland and in fact I am not responsible for the various name changes to this thread. They are being done by a higher power. Quote

They are being done by a higher power. Speaking of higher powers, WJ has just arbitrarily locked the Denham thread. It was being viewed and added to regularly and yet on the whim of one person it is now locked. Goodbye to democracy and freedom of speech on Demonland. Quote

Not prepared to give the programme any more free publicity and besides, it's been flogged to death like this thread and the banana fetishists around here. Quote
Whispering_Jack 31,367 Posted November 5, 2011 Posted November 5, 2011 I'll make up for it by giving you all a tip: Flemington Race 8 Number 1 Bauer Back it each way. Redleg says it will win. Quote
Sir Why You Little 37,454 Posted November 5, 2011 Posted November 5, 2011 Its coming. Far too much info Mr. Leg!! Quote

Suggest you look at your posts 926 & 945 on here for starters. Welcome to the club. Quote

Neither accurate and neither of which would stand up in a court of law as you would well know. Perhaps you might want to explain to the punters what happened to your each way tip Bauer in the Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Flemington. An apology to Her Majesty for botching up the selections in her race would seem to be in order, would it not? Quote

An apology to Her Majesty for botching up the selections in her race would seem to be in order, would it not? Have already spoken to her. She asked me why we didn't have a pick in the first round of this year's draft. I explained to her about Clark. Quote
Akum 2,660 Posted November 5, 2011 Posted November 5, 2011 Have already spoken to her. She asked me why we didn't have a pick in the first round of this year's draft. I explained to her about Clark. Did she approve? Quote

Chook 15,069 Posted November 5, 2011 Posted November 5, 2011 Cold Coopers Pale Ale, beautiful twilight sun, pizza and the internet. I love Melbourne weather occasionally. Just back from a 3.2k. 14 minutes - I think I need to do a little more work in order to be an elite mid, that's for sure . . . Quote
Apocalypse XXXI 243 Posted November 5, 2011 Posted November 5, 2011 19 days and counting.Draft comment for today. Will we add another Jack? Watch for tomorrows exciting draft countdown instalment. Coming soon, the 25th of November actually, our draft wrap up and analysis. Boy, do I have a Jack for you? Knightmare's 2011 Mock Draft on bigfooty currently has Jack Charleston down as pick 52 which, conveniently enough, would make him a Demon (previously had him going to Collingwood for a later pick). Jack Charleston (VIC – Mid/Util)Height: 177cm, Weight: 83kg, DOB: 09/01/1993 Recruited from: Western Jets Range: 35-rookie Profile: Had a really nice season for the Western Jets though the midfield. Big ball winner. Has great footy smarts. Was probably pretty unlucky not to make the Metro squad. Really tough player with good pace. Not afraid to take on opposition players. Has grown strongly as the season has gone and is one to watch, has made the transition from back pocket to midfielder really quickly and can even go forward and have an impact. You can also have Jack Crisp, Jack Newnes or Jackson Paine if you want. Quote
Redleg 42,151 Posted November 5, 2011 Author Posted November 5, 2011 Did she approve? Yes she thinks Clark will straighten us up. She also said we need to work on our press and disposal. Quote
Redleg 42,151 Posted November 5, 2011 Author Posted November 5, 2011 Will get in a little early here with 18 days and counting. Draft comment: many Dees fans may miss the first 30 odd picks and then start getting involved with the Foxtel coverage. Quote

Draft comment: many Dees fans may miss the first 30 odd picks and then start getting involved with the Foxtel coverage. They could do us a favour by televising all of the selections in reverse this year instead of just the first ten. Quote
Redleg 42,151 Posted November 6, 2011 Author Posted November 6, 2011 They could do us a favour by televising all of the selections in reverse this year instead of just the first ten. I think because of GWS the reverse coverage of the first 10 picks will be axed. Quote
Whispering_Jack 31,367 Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 And what an exciting coverage it promises to be? A sea of charcoal and orange with the Homebush crowd listening appreciatively as this young songstress belts out the new GWS club theme song:- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPM5dhwHw6o&feature=youtube_gdata_player Quote

H_T 3,049 Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 17 days and counting on monday. Draft Comment: Whoever we draft will be exactly the boys we wanted and we were lucky to get them. "We thought he would have gone early second round, maybe even late first round - we're certainly fortunate for him to be there at pick 36. The other two selections - we can't believe they weren't picked up earlier - put it this way, we were looking at them for pick 36 !" - quote to come from MFC recruiter post draft. Quote
