Vince.

I can't say more. I may get posts removed that mods would allow themselves.

When you post racist things they tend to get deleted. Funny that.

I would have put Watts ahead of Dawes, Grimes or Cross.

That Banner is a stark reminder of our shortage of A grade talent.

Lumumba for the last head.

One of Kent, JKH or Jetta should be up there. Great contributors in 2014. Hogan hasn't played a game yet.

Dunn, Hogan, Tyson, Cross, Vince and Lumumba.

Congratulations, well done.

I know it's just a banner, but I have to admit to being a little disappointed that Jetta didn't get the recognition he deserves. For a long time he was a popular whipping boy on these forums (along with Dunn and Watts among others), but last year he turned his game around and was probably the most improved player on our list (even moreso than the Ped). I certainly would have had him ahead of Grimes or Lamumba who is yet to play a game in the red and blue... yes, I know he's in the leadership group, but I would have thought players have to earn their place on the BANNER!

2 pies, a dog, a crow, but no room for the Jet. Who voted for this?

You think this is a democracy?

No offence to anyone but.....Who really cares......I come on here to see and read the opinions of other likeminded people

not to see who is on the banner.

No one has to earn their place on the banner. Who am I to be judge and jury? This is a fan site.

In which case, the fans responded in the poll with a resounding "No" vote (74% or thereabouts) to not including new recruits (Lamumba was on that list) and Watts had more votes than Dawes (7 vs 2). Alas, poor Nev was slotted away in the Others vote, so we will never know if he earned a place of not.

Andy you do a great job with the site and you've got every right to put up who you want.

Well done and thanks.

Given all the work the Administrators put into keeping this site going, it's churlish for the rest of us to complain because the banner selections don't meet our personal preferences. I say well done.

(And if there's a way to monetise the banner to allow people to put their own preferences up there, I'll donate any commission I would otherwise get from suggesting the idea to Demonland).

I'm just busting balls, like it makes a lick of difference whose mug is on the banner. It looks good, a little over-crowded but good

Not complaining at all LDvC... I initially expressed surprise that Jetta wasn't there, but then my inner "grumpy old man" escaped his cage and couldn't resist responding to Demonland's comment re "fan site"... I too believe D'land and all admins do a great job.

This is also not a democracy so I can do whatever the hell I like. :P

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
