No disrespect to the current crop on the demonland banner but I believe Jack Grimes should also feature.

I know it's not as simple as banging up a photo but just thought if you guys have any upgrades or refreshes due soon that it would be a good sign of respect.

Agree and had requested this be done when the new capts were announced last week.

I'm surprised I haven't seen the official banner updated with Frank "Grimey" Grimes.

What's the holdup? Is it copyright that's holding up proceedings? Or a server issue?

There's only one guy that can update the banner (Andy), and with him having a family, a job and a life, I'd say it'll happen when he gets around to it. Everyone can just wait patiently in the mean time.

Psh....I can't imagine any of those things being more important than an online footy forum.

One small issue is that the template used for Demonland is a variable width template which means it adjusts to the screen width of the device being used.

The player image part of the banner is approx. 900 pixels wide, and if you veiw DL on an iphone or ipad which has a screen width of 1024 pixels, Beamer only just appears.

Unless Grimes replaces an existing player eg Beamer or JW and instead is simply added at the end (as DD has done), he will not appear on the aforementioned devices.

My suggestion would be to replace JW with JG. DD may also notice that players on the RHS of the banner face left, so I'd think there would be a better image of Jack available.

Maybe if the image attributes were a percentage of screen width (or table row/table data width) it may solve that issue. I guess it depends on how it affects the rest of of the page layout

Sometimes you never know with templtes till you give it a crack and see what weird and wonderfull things happen as a result

Or now that Jimmy has stepped down, Neeld could be moved left and Grimes in. Suggestion. Don't wish to upset the natives.

    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

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.
