We will never find out but i would love to know the average age of MFC members.

I suspect it may well be the highest in the MFC.

That is a real danager.

We need to start having winning seasons.

Doggies would be worse

Guys I rang the MFC and asked them and to be honest I am not a lot wiser.

Perhaps the web site person has jumped the gun and staff have not been given a full explanation.

Who knows what will transpire in the fullness of time!

When I was at school (approx. 100 years ago) a grade of 'D' meant a fail. I wonder why I remember that so well? Anyway, I doubt that this is what our Club has in mind. 'Distinction' seems more appropriate.

Edit: spelling

Gee RN they would be in real trouble if they are dependant on this old croak.

My wife told me just this morning when I was complaining about the "ageing process"

To remember "you woke up alive this morning just get on with it".

Sounds like the MFC to me.

You, me and the MFC, old dee!

From the email... quote ...

"In 2012 our generation of young, talented players will demonstrate their growing strength, and come into their own under new leadership. We are calling it Generation D"...

My take on it...

  • New 'younger' Captain - Trenners!
  • Younger brigade of other leaders in the LG....say Grimes or Watts as VC. Frawley and then a few older boys to support them out of say Moloney, Jones and Green. Moloney might keep VC but definitely a bent towards youth in remainder of LG. Just a stab.
  • Generation D. Sounds better than "Young Demons" or something like that i guess.

Thanks for the effort to explain it it just seem complicated to me.

How about i put it in poker terms then....

Generation D = We're going 'all in' on our youth lol

P.S. You're right. Pretty much everything i say on here is a guess :lol:

I think I must have put that wrong.

I was meaning we all need to guess because it is IMO a little obscure.

Oh, that's what you meant lol.

Maybe they're spending a little less on marketing and redirecting it into the bowels of the FD. There i go....guessing again

A lot of marketing is like that RN guessing is quite often the only solution open to us mere mortals!

31....hmmm theres that funny ol number again.... Must be the start of rebuilding its image as a number having relevant meaning :rolleyes:

The chance to win one of three 31" LCD TVs

31 could they not have made it 32"

Hah! Very well spotted! Conspiracy theories everywhere. You sure you're not Mel Gibson? And does T** S***** have a middle name? All the bad guys do.

I dont get whats so complicated, as stated early in the thread it is simply playing on "generation X or Y or Z"

But your teams nickname is the "Dees"

So they are using the term "Generation D"

As in this will be Our Generation - edit in terms of success

imo anyway, no secret messages or anything cryptic about age

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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.

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)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    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
