    Because we all know that Demonland epitomizes proper grammar and spelling...
    The problem is that he used a noun instead of an adverb at the end of his sentence.

    This was discussed in the Mitch Clark's Foot topic... and I am not so sure it is actually a grammatical error.

    Edit: I take that back. Just checked the article and noticed the heading says "positively" and the body text says "positivity"... perhaps it was written on an iPad and he is a victim of the dreaded Apple spell-checker.

    However, the term "progressing positivity" can be also correct and could be applied in this case. For example, Clark's progress with his foot could be progressing positivity at the club.

    The heading's been changed from the original grammatically incorrect heading and I say that with some positivity.

    This is an important post because it shines a light on this high tech age we find ourselves in where abbreviations and grammatical errors are par for the course and it shines a light on those who don't care that the english language is being raped before our eyes.

    Wouldn't mind if they had an easier link to contacting the club at the end of the article. It's minor and it'd stay minor if you could say pssst Burgo, ya done used the wrong word. Maybe Burgo should pm his email address to all the best spellers on Demonland. We'll be like planeteers for spelling corrections etc. Grammarteers.

    Because using rape as an analogy for careless grammar is sooooooo high-brow.

    Anyway...

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
