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.

    Yes good point .

    How lucky am I ?

    No foxtel.

    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.

    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.
