It seems a little rediculous that the co-captain of the club isn't already on the banner. Give Grimes a Go!!!

And Clark and Howe for obvious reasons.

I think Mclardy should be up there as well. Given he is steering the ship, this isnt a call to take Jimmy down either, he should be there forever

I'd only have players that have actually done something on the banner. I definitely wouldn't have Watts, but i understand why he's there.

How about players earn it ?

Can you make a "banner" with just one player?

A suggestion for the next banner. How about past quality players such as Flower, Lyon, Neitz, Stynes (as a player), Barassi, a couple of Cordners (not David), etc. Reminds us of what we were and perhaps what we should aim for. And no annoying embarrassments should a current player leave or perform so badly they don't belong there.

I propose we replace the current members of the demonland banner with the geniuses from On the Couch.

only if there are red and blue roundels shown between their eyes !!! :unsure:

Time to omit Beamer and replace him with Mitch Clark

Whoops, sorry. I posted this while using my phone, which probably wasn't showing it all properly.

I still think the banner should comprise the coach and the leadership group.

Edit: and maybe Jimmy Stynes should have a permanent place to the left of the Demonland logo/MFC "coat of arms".

Hold your horses, apparently Moloney 'isn't gone yet'.

Clark and Howe, good suggestions!

Isnt a free agent only taken off a clubs list if the club declines the chance to match an offer from a rival club?

Just cause Moloney has indicated he wants to leave doesn't mean someone will offer.

I will be redoing the banner for the new season. No need to take down players yet. If Jurrah walks I can easily erase him from the banner. Ditto if we dump Moloney. But I won't do anything before there is an official announcement.

Having said that the banner had been a bit of a jinx for players and officials in the past few years.

Thats good to not jump too soon.

But please can we put up Our REAL success stories from our rich History.

Premiership Cups & Premiership Hero's, & Robbie Flower, Schwartz, Neita, Lyon, et al.

Putting up our current crop prior to them becoming what they can be, is a small part of our failing culture.

Cant we have a mix of people who have given us history and the people who will make history?

Just have Demonland written, no players, just the emblem. The pics seemed to be jinxed,

Agreed.

Stuff the player banner. Use it to honour our legends past and present.

I think I may go down the route of using past champions. Anyone have any hi-res photos of Robbie, Garry and Neita. The internet isn't helping with Robbie and Garry.

PM me if you do.

Good idea - Norm's curse might extend to these images if 2012 is anything to go by.

Infact didnt we start going downhill from the time we adopted the new coat of arms thingie with the southern cross?

In all serious though if you do add Mitch Clark - that image of him walking off being helped with the beard, the bezerker look in his eyes and his lips mouthing the f word in utter fury would be ideal.

I really like this :)

    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. 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

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. 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
