This is unacceptable! Sack the bored!

But more seriously, it is a bit of a newspeak clanger.

I'm bored... does that mean I get the sack?

This is the worst thread i have ever seen

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...

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
