There is no such thing as an "unthinkable hypothetical".

To form a hypothesis one must expend some thought or imagination.

To do so without this mental exercise is impossible.

As it is to answer DCs poll.

Therefore DC,

No Brainer.

Demonland is an exception to normal rules of thought ... :blink::blink:

    I probably quaff sufficient reds to muddle my understanding of "hypothetical" OD.

    I have considered cutting the cable to WA and there will be no news Bbo.

    Because it is may be the beginning of the end.

    Good idea. I might head to the barn and drink with "the lads".

    dc is probably going to a Dinner Dance at the tennis club to pick up a blue rinser.

    Correct dc

    If the trend of recent weeks continues into 2015 then IMO we will struggle to see out 2017

    The way I feel right now that is not the worst scenario .

  • Quote

    This is purely a hypothetical to gauge what posters feelings would be if the club became unviable

    My preference would be to merge with another Melbourne-Based club (or two!). The Greater Melbourne Jumping Tigers from Hell could work.

    Very hard to say what my response in terms of membership would be. I suspect it would differ depending on the scenario. I doubt I'd be a member if they moved interstate. I'm far too pragmatic for that. If I don't get to go to the home games there's no point being a member. If they merged I would probably stay with them.

    Yes good point .

    How lucky am I ?

    No foxtel.

    I have Foxtel and I don't know if I'm even game to turn it on....

    Right now, it feels like the calm before the storm.

    and don't bother watching the wallabies either od

    I do quite like Aussie Rules, and often spend my time watching the ammo's down at the local ground. I love the Demons, but if they were the Tassie Demons, or the St Kilda Demons it wouldn't be the same.

    Think I would jump on board with the Melbourne United (I still hate the name). I enjoy watching basketball as well. Never liked League or Union, and I think Soccer is a joke.

    Will probably just watch a bit of the local footy as well, but if the Dees fold or merge etc, then that we be the AFL done for me.

    I don't think roos and pj or the AFL will let this happen. There are too many reputations at steak.
    Roos will be destroyed if he doesn't pull it off, as will the rest of the very experienced coaching staff.

    As will the AFL, as they are essentially in control of the club through PJ.

    Not happening.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
