Thanks will give it a try. May come out of retirement, as we will have plenty of spots on the list to fill.

I'm sure you'd have more of a crack than some have this year Redleg!

The departing player list is growing and reference is made to many clubs being interested in the players. We will see what we get in return, if anything.

Interesting Redleg that Gysberts has a year to run on his contract.

So there is an obvious breakdown there.

I thought it was obvious in the first few games he was not in favour

Then Injured and who knows from there.

Apparently a couple of clubs have inquired about him.

Churning our list at the moment is like sellign a house. If you HAVE to you will take a hit. Sometimes you have to, theres no waiting. The alternative is even worse, to hang on to second rate players just because youd be affraid to have to have a fire sale.

Well, we're Melbourne, our whole football existence could be described as living in hell. Its warm there.

Light the fires !!! :)

Apologies in advance for posting Pies paraphernalia.

I'm looking around for TV's. Found this one, some of the comments are priceless.

Toothless Hordes Branded TV

Could anyone from collingwood afford it? do you have a dole check exchange program?

....i think this model should be called "Bogan", not Kogan!!!!!

Why would someone who normally steals a tv, pay for one?

Good that collingwood get cheap tv, no home to put it in tho.. caravan with a generator??

Is it only a Black and white tv :P Bwahahahaa!

Kogan does Bogan! Well done! Now try a fan base that could afford one.

now we know where the baby bonus is going for sure!

$450 could buy that one more tooth you were saving up for this christmas....

Am I correct in saying that it was Pythagorus who came up with the theory that the sum of the salaries of the first three place getters for the Kevin Sheedy Medal was not equal to the salary of the fourth place getter?

If so, it all sounds like Greek to me.

He may have also come up with the the formula for Recruiter's waistlines. that being Waist = Pie Arse Squared !!

Is there a need for those black and white colors a couple of posts ago, on such a refined thread?

Sorry Redleg. Won't happen again.

Especially on this thread Redleg

Is it just me tonight BB I am struggling to find a thread that interests me.

Seems we are generating multiple thread that cover the same 2 -3 subjects.

I might have to give Demonland a break it is similar to our season at present.

Old...I think weve enetered that twilight zone that is the EOS. Especially the finals' weeks where theres only so much that can occur as much often included players of the competing teams.

We have what amounts to a leap-liek year occurence whereby no Senior coach is on the block, things remain rather calm and the ususal suspects make a ruckus in the cheap seats.

Its a bit like the 7 stages of grieving. Season ends, there's murmurs, theres rumours and a truck load of speculation. All the "in the knows" come out of the woodwork. Why are they never around much 'during' the season? lol . Some who seldon post suddenly come to life and the rest of us go fishing for the gems. The net is often empty.

Theres a few events of late Im already over. That actually surprises myslef somewhat but theres just no point worrying about so many things is there :)

A hell of a lot of jumping at shadows BB.

The thing that really surprises me is we have had what may have been the worst season in 30 years, this is the sixth bummer in a row.

We clearly have a large number of poor players

And yet people don't want to make changes.

Oh well the racing season is upon us and the NBL is just around the corner

Hopefully they will distract me for a few months.

Have a good night mate

Its been a funny year. A Keating year... lol Very cathartic !! :unsure:

Not much on the scoreboard as they say , but its been all about what s happening in the rooms this year.

I wasnt concerned before the season started about wins. it wasnt about wins. I know some think in a terribly simplistic way. If we arent winning were losing. A certain reality to that but irrelevent to what this season was about. Never was about wins. It was about finding out about the players. This has been done. Now the next phase. This is actually exciting. Something REAL Something progressive.

ahhh Progress theres something different :huh:

Pies will lose Maxwell and maybe Tarrant next game through the MRP. If Johnson got a week, Maxwell has to at a minimum. Off the ball to the face and left the ground bleeding. Tarrant gave Buddy a good one to the ribs from behind and should also get at least a week.

I am not homophobic, but does there need to be an Ad on the Demonland Melbourne Demons Forum page at the top headed " Meet Gay Men Online". There are young kids on Demonland and I think it is pretty ordinary. It seems to be alternating. Now it says meet Asian Women For Love Online. Gee.

I can't tell if you're being serious or not Redleg. Are you really getting those ads?

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
