How come "T$ B$" is acceptable but my genius spoonerism of "Scum Tolly" wasn't? Boo.

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.

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.

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.

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?

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.

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 . . .

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.

Did she approve?

Yes she thinks Clark will straighten us up. She also said we need to work on our press and disposal.

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.

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.

Not only that but we can't believe they were still available at 36, 52 and 54.

"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.

    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. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. 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. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
