Speaking of Rhino Richards, I'm still carrying a demerit point from the days when he was handing them out like they were going out of fashion. Any chance of having this removed Nash?

Haha, me too.

Rhino was brutal. He could start an argument out of anything.

I have definitely noticed there are a few posters whose opinions generally align with mine, and when I see their avatar, I always stop and read. P-Man probably being one.

I think Saty will go down as one of most, if not the most, notorious posters of all time.

Does anyone else think of posters looking exactly like their avatars (in your head at least)?

in fact, it's downright annoying when ppl don't have one. Better get my act together.

Absolutely!  I've taken great pleasure in watching Nasher grow from a baby-faced little girl, to become a couple of mighty Demons hugging each-other. The transformation has been akin to the Melbourne Footy Club under Paul Roos.

I've noticed our views often align.  Can't ever remember disagreeing with what you've written.

This is now my favourite thread. I'm hitting like all over the shop.

Not sure if people imagining me reciting my posts to them while sitting on the toilet is a good thing, but I'm too attached to my avatar to change it.

Discerning tone over a purely based text format is always an interesting conundrum here. ie - I'm aware I can come across as a complete [censored] here, whereas in real life I'm only maybe half a [censored]. Also think a fair few of the posters that butt heads here often would be the most likely to get along in real life, and despite my "online" relationship with some of them I'd enjoy having a beer with a few of them. (Not that I'd ever actually offer or want to).

So, Demonland end of season BBQ?

Yeah I really like it. He seems to be both grumpy and self-satisfied at the same time.

...Think of what we were doing 5 or 10 years ago, or 20 or 30 years ago. Most of us are doing different things, have disposed of activities, friends, houses and material possessions. Changed partners, wives, lovers, Changed jobs, lost jobs, taken up new pleasures. Changed drinking habits and other activities....

About the only constant from 10 years ago is the drinking and demonland. And even those aren't as much as they used to be!

Haha, that baby-faced little girl turned 10 a few weeks ago.  Time is going terrifyingly fast.

I went avatarless after 186 - thought it was the best reflection about how I felt at the time.  Installed Gus and Trac after the round one win in 2015 - still think it's a pretty good moment single capture for the entire Roos era.  

Will definitely be on the hunt for a Goodwin era avatar in 2017!

Come on! You offered to meet me for a beer after the Essendon loss earlier in the year stu, then pulled the offer once I declined, like it never happened... jilted. :(

But glad I was on my own that day. Perhaps the closest I've ever come to being arrested at the footy.

And for those wondering about BBO's avatar pic, I've met the 'man' several times. Yes, that is exactly how he looks in real life, but often he changes the colours around a bit depending upon mood. His missus, on the other hand, is a 4'6" obese truck driver covered in tatts and suspicious facial hair...

The passionate (AngryDee), the enthusiastic (TazLvr), the analytical (Grapeviney), the argumentative (Can't think of any here...), the pedantic(Wiseblood), the hateful (ProDee), the depressives (SWYL), the fence sitters (hardtack), the fickle (Dazzle), the eccentric (ENYAW), the offbeat (Tony Tea), and so the list goes on

I'm not sure if I'm chuffed that I'm pedantic enough to rate a mention, or bemused that one of the most pedantic posters on this board has labelled me as such.

Either way I'll take it.

    THE CAVALRY ARRIVES by Megg

    The injury plague which has beset the Demons 2024 campaign is finally starting to dissipate and with consecutive wins over GWS Giants and a 2-point nail-biter in Adelade, a sense of optimism is rising.  Some commentators are now asking whether the Dees can make finals? A huge surprise with team selection this week when it was announced that champs Olivia Purcell, Paxy Paxman and Eden Zanker would play.   Hallelujah!  The cavalry has arrived. St Kilda missed the finals last season on pe

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.
