Demonland Pre-season Camp

I'm a little worried about Demonland. It's always been an emotional roller-coaster ride with an eclectic group of passionate posters but it seems the sniping and abuse is at an all time high.

We need to remember we're on the same side.

I'm proposing a pre-season camp.

Over the next week I'd like to see everyone take a little trip over to bigfooty. I'd like to see everybody rally together to take on all comers. I'd like to see us band together to show the footyballing world that we are indeed as feral as Caroline Wilson would have her readers believe. I'd like to see BH and TimD fight the same battle. I'd like to see threads coming to a close because opposition supporters feel outnumbered and out-argued.

    Sorry I should have edited the above.

    I'd like to see BH and anyone fight the same battle.

    Sorry to nitpick but Wilson didn't call us "feral".

    The word was "rabid".

    I've never been rabid. Might give it a try.

    Not sure about the location of the camp, but I'm all for the "goodvibes".

    I'm as guilty as the next bloke of having a crack, despite many efforts to turn it around. The only chance of it working is if we all got on the same page at the same time. Usually the "leaf turners" get shot down by the "worn outs" and the cycle continues. We all know following the Dees will probably never be a rosegarden, at least anytime soon, but we could make an effort to minimize the pricks.

    Don't worry Dandee. While I have been known to do a bit of camping in the past, the good life in Romsey has softened me up - so to speak. Anyway it would have to be a 5 star tent - spa, steamroom, massage etc.

    Is this an olive branch Stuie? Do you really love me?

    Jeezus Stuie settle down. I'm having a bit of a joke here. FFS I didn't to provide an opportunity for some of your unhealthy and repressed desires to bubble up.

    Don't struggle my love...

    Geeze, with Stuie going all mushie and on the prowl, and Rangey back with manners and reason, one might think that the heavy hand of management has straightened the joint out. Or is it just the hot weather frying a few brains?

    the last creature to call bbo "my love" was an alpaca and he ended up as part of a memorable barbecue

    don't confuse lust with love.....it upsets bbo

    Demonland, please accept my apology for starting this thread. Clearly I didn't think this through. The BBO/stuie stuff was not quite what I had in mind. I know there's plenty of kids on this site and they didn't need to read the last few posts. Put simply, I fear for the children.

    I'm glad the threat of bigfooty seems to have done the trick and the behaviour of posters today seems to have been pretty good!

    Head over to the Saints NAB Cup thread and disabuse yourself of that notion.

    Gloves are off over there.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
