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.

Pre-season camp sign on is below:

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

The word was "rabid".

By the looks of him he'll pitch a tent wherever and whenever he likes...

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?

Haha we have a passionate relationship BBO, let's just say that. Of course, we could make olive oil with that branch... hmmmm...

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?

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.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
