We don't know yet if the pies are going to play...

If they turn up with at least 10 players, it will be a 3-way contest...

If not, we will play a full game against bomberblitz...

Whispering Jack may put in a cameo appearance tomorrow... :wub:

 

Justto confirm. Start at 10.30, or be there then??

And any chance anyone knows how to strap an ankle?

BREAKING NEWS...

On the eve of the big game, Demonland has finally signed on a new coach.

Happy to announce the appointment of former Melbourne Football Club President, Paul Gardner, as match day Demonland coach.

The man who hired Dean Bailey had better perform better in the hot seat tomorrow.

Get around him boys. He's been a great servant of our club.

See you all at the ground in the morning.

AMENDED REMINDER NOTICE

Reminder we are playing TOMORROW, Sunday, October 6 at 10.30am at Olympic Park.

This is Eastern Standard Time, so put your clocks forward one hour tonight.

It’s off Swan Street (south side) between Batman Avenue and Punt Road. (Much closer to Batman Avenue).

CARPARK is opposite (north side). It’s something like S14.00 flat rate.

WEATHER. Forecast says 18 degrees, mild, occasional sun, humidity 81%.

People, its Melbourne so bring WATER and SUNSCREEN!!!

Helpers, we have never had enough additional water, so please do not slack off on your commitments.

Everyone, please bring additional jumpers (if you have them) for players without.

See you tomorrow at 10.15am or thereabouts.

Players and helpers who have not committed, or who are late apologies, please update your status by posting on the thread on Demonland, by sending me a pm, or by sending me an email at ([email protected]) or by texting me on 0408 698 328.

Regards,

Peter Connor (aka Rollo)

Reminder - highly ambitious attempt at a live call via http://mixlr.com/supermercado/. If first bounce is 11am I'll move the starting time back to 10.50 to give me time to work out who everyone is.

As long as it's not a total disaster archives of the call will be available at that address afterwards.

Inspiration courtesy of:

Il have to pull out Rollo. Couldnt get out of work so massive apologis mate!

 

Ah I jus woke up and have a very sore head. My bad Rollo.

Dees win by 20 goals over the Bombers at Olympic Park.

The lead was by over 10 goals at half time and with Paul Gardner coaching, I didn't expect the boys to let up and while I wasn't able to follow Supermercado's commentary but I'm sure the Chris Sullivan line cracke a mention at some point.

Well done lads ... Reports to come.


Good work boys. Spewin i couldnt have played. I would have kicked 10.

I live to see the day an AFL score line reads like that.

if the bummers get a few infractions you might see it sooner than later


Unfortunately, we've already seen a similar scoreline this year...

To supermercado for organising the live broadcast and bringing extra jumpers...

We voted to forgive you, cowboy, as long as we won by 20 goals...

you are forgiven... -_-

your replacement at full-forward (bonna) was not too shabby... :)

 

Anyone snap any photos?

Anyone snap any photos?

dunno, mate...

the bench was a bit thin...

and the players were a bit busy kicking goals...

somebody got us on an I-phone singing the song at the end of the game...

time will tell, I guess...

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
