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!

Edit: and stop the auto correct typos!

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
