It’s all been a bit too gloomy on the board in recent weeks. So, given the call by many posters for the MFC Board to be replaced, who would you like to see on the (hypothetical) Demonland ticket?

Personally, I’d be happy with Whispering Jack, rpfc, Daisycutter, Nasher, Redleg and Jaded. Each offers wisdom, humour and passion without the need for vitriol. I’m tempted to add Bitter But Optimistic although perhaps I just want to quell the stereotypical image most people have of Melbourne supporters.

I can’t find a spot for Why You Little or Ben-Hur although I don’t doubt their passion. I just feel they might struggle with the need for a unified voice. And Rhino Richards might aggravate the supporters a bit too much with his, er, biting commentary.

Who would you choose? (And lets keep it friendly, OK?)

Rangey has to be on the ticket as club communicator.

Look at all the polls we can engage in.

nooooo not redleg, refusing to drink whisky cognac and brandy automatically precludes them from the old boys club

saty would be the logical person to keep the meetings going ooooonnnnnnn into the wee hours of the morning

bbo would certainly lift the tone of the room for me and could also work the footbridge selling raffle tickets pregame, who would refuse

maybe one other could be a mn fan so the meetings had a touch of eveness i was thinking GNF

not sure about the biff , liqueur cabinet would need to be locked

thanks for starting a fun post and smile. were all dees

Biffen.

There is no other choice.

Thanks for your support Choke-

I'm not sure if the time for my ideas has arrived .

First thing I would do is allow women to vote.

Then I would lift the White Australia policy,

Eddie will hate it .

And. Furthermore. How can you have any sort of reasoned discussion without vitriol? Dland would lose half its members.

Extremist.

Keep your regional conservatism to yourself ,

us city slickers are ripe for revolution.

I'll ban fox-hunting and then you'll only have football and corporal punishment to keep you occupied.

I am currently working on the Australian Banana Board to sponsor us. We could also make millions, selling banana smoothies at games, instead of beer.

...could we establish the MCG as an InDee-pendant TaxFree state, & become a republic,,, that sponsorship may come in Handee...

I imagine I'll need to raise my profile if I want to be elected!

    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.

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. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

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)
