Important article in Fairfax press by a girl who does't like fruit peel in her Christmas Cake.

The Age once again dealing with the real news.

And the ever charming Clementine Ford wrote a gem about being lonely at Christmas (is it any wonder).

Well here's a mystery to be solved.

After a considerable hiatus, our most crass correspondent has returned.

Where have you been Biffen?

Moonie suggested on another thread that, due to various addictions, you had undergone a long period of rehab. Certainly plausible.

Whereas my contacts among your sordid social milieu claim that issues with law enforcement authorities have forced something of a hermit lifestyle upon you. Again plausible.

Perhaps you should take this opportunity and attempt to restore your  reputation to the level of merely odious.

I won't dignify your sordid imputations with a detailed response other than to say, in modern shorthand :

GAGF.

I believe all of the above is perfectly plausible.. Do you by chance know what GAGF means? 

I heard another rumour that he was he copper who organised the boot camps...

Well skinny,  I'm assuming it's modern speak for some sort of  seasonal good wishes

Supporting the MFC will do that to you Mr. Shadow.

There are many things that happens to those who support the MFC. Winning AFL grand finals is not one of them.

Across this summer season layoff where news of any kind is gold, yet hard to find, I just watched for the sixth time the Demonland Podcast of 'Rare Robbie Flower Highlights' - and it still makes me well-up inside, brings a tear to my eye and forces me to analyse in a myriad of ways just how good he was as a player and a team inspiration. Whilst this is a 'highlights' reel, there is so much of Robbie in this vault across so many games and against such talented opponents - all over the ground - that clearly confirm him as the best player I have ever had the privilege to see. For those who have not seen this podcast, may I strongly recommend it to you. Will there ever be another player this good?

Up until this line, I had thought that this thread was way above any other on Land and I enjoyed the reading, innuendo and humour  far more than I should.  Am I missing the point in this comment ?

You are a very intelligent and perceptive person, as your post shows.

PS. The post about Robbie and more Hawthorn players being better was rubbish. He was brilliant on the footy field and modest and humble off it. A true champion and sadly missed.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.

    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
