Reminder we are playing next Sunday, October 23 at 11am at Victoria Park.

Melway map reference 2C K7.

TRAIN to Victoria Park station ( Epping or Hurstbridge lines).

CAR. Ample free parking available in Lulie Street.

WEATHER. Extended forecast says 27 degrees, warm and mostly cloudy. Chance of showers, so footy boots are a must.

People, its Melbourne so bring WATER and SUNSCREEN!!!

Helpers, we have never had enough additional water, so please do not slack off on your commitments.

Everyone, please bring additional jumpers (if you have them) for players without.

See you Sunday at 10.30 am or thereabouts.

Players and helpers who have not committed, or who are late apologies, please update your status by posting on the thread on Demonland, by sending me a pm, or by sending me an email at ([email protected]) or by texting me on 0408 698 328.

[rollinson 65 181]

[Supermercado 2,797]

Definitely in for the day but god forbid we get a full contingent of confirmed players will be happy to join the ranks of helpers to cut down on the amount of rotation required.

[wonnabeeri 275]

hey, wonna...

have you played with wise as captain before ??

(don't think you have)...

if you haven't, don't be excited, be scared...

Not sure. I am now scared though

[Striker475 696]

I've got another +1. Also, can someone bring spare MFC jumpers?

[rollinson 65 181]

I've got another +1. Also, can someone bring spare MFC jumpers?

I will be bringing about half a dozen...

hate it when they get taken as souvenirs though...

[rollinson 65 181]

"Not sure. I am now scared though"

survival rules (surviving playing with captain wise) :

if he is out of position and screaming for the ball, best give it to him...

if he is lining up an opposition player for a tackle, stay clear of that zone...

when he shanks his passes to the forwards, wipe that smile off your face...

if he notices you and gives you an order (no matter how illogical or obscene), best carry it out, or at least try...

(by my reading of history, no human being has ever been able to have sexual intercourse with themselves)...

it's a white line fever thing (like carl ditterich or rod grinter)...

wise is a lovely bloke this side of the white line, but...

anyway, if the above rules fail you, you can always pretend to be injured and sit out the game on the bench...

swooper and funky41 are out, but heater is back to claim the full-forward slot he has come to own...

and striker, it might be a good time to stop recruiting... B)

Extremely honourable gesture Super, but that would spoil the day for those of us who enjoy a good laugh at your expense...

[Nascent 9,212]

Apoligies for the late notice but uni commitments have tied me up on sunday unfortunately. Will definately put my hand up next time round if the opportunity presents itself.

[Samsara 65]

I, too, am unlikely to make it. Have a birthday on Sunday that I 'must' attend. You know, one of those birthdays I didn't even consider when I put my hand up to play/help [due to it not even crossing into my conscious awareness], but was swiftly reminded of just a few days a go by the missus.

Best of luck to all involved though, and let us hope we see Demonland win a few games. Will be keen to read impressions etc.
