What about one position vacant each match day for a mystery pick by all after the round (with a time limit ,of course)....

Don't knoiw much about the amount of work time or effort that goes into editing the banner,   but this is a good idea worth thinking about.

As another thought    what about a random change with a past player being seen on the banner   Barrassi,  Robbie, Greg Parkes, Ray Biffen, Crackers,  Jacko,     what an assortment of goodies  !!


How about having Goody on the banner? You know, get behind the coach, a bit of solidarity?

Crazy idea, I know......

To the Demonland   not trying to increase your work load,  don't know anything at all about IT design,  but it would be an interesting project    Good Luck

Tmac Lewis Jetta Hibberd Jones Daisy Viney Clarry Trac Hunt

In that order from left to right based on 2017 apologies to Nibbler

 

Rather than a player of the week how about a player of the month? Acknowledges consistency and output.

I was actually thinking about this this morning.

I will be changing the banner soon.

I'm not sure whether Lever gets a guernsey so soon.

No.

Only put players up who are killing it for the Dees. Not before.

The banner does not have to be full.  But has to have integrity to the cause.

Watts never deserved to be there. One season in 9, is a disgrace, and should not earn a spot up in lights.

potential should not be highlighted, until after it bears fruit.

He gets in on merit.

It's not often that I choose to argue the point with people on this forum (too many big egos), however in this case I shall.

i can't remember an aboriginal player being represented on the banner ( if I'm incorrect I apologise, I can't of the top of my head remember every banner)) so I believe their contribution should be recognised. Now in my opinion that recognition should take the form this coming season of one of the teams very best players I.e. Neville Jetta. Even if Jetta was one of the teams journeymen I think it would be appropriate to have him or another player from the aboriginal community represented. It is a symbolic gesture and one that I believe would be appreciated by many people in the aboriginal (and wider) community: It represents inclusiveness.

If your sole criterion is merit, then Neville Jetta gets in. If the banner represented a broader view then he gets in for the above reasons as well. But of course merit was not the only factor driving who did or didn't get chosen for last seasons banner was it!

A day has passed since Jack Watts left the Club yet he remains on the Demonland Banner. Surely Jake Lever or Michael Hibberd or Clayton Oliver loom as the replacement? Who is it to be (and when)?

(Not sure how to do a poll.) ?

Race should have zero to do with it.

Same as Gender.

But it does, and it has through history. Ask an aboriginal player about race and you'll get a different answer.

No worries.  We differ.

Yes history shows that it has mattered, if you want to promote a change in this then of the whole MFC you put up players who have had a good year or we sponsor etc etc.

Nev should be there not because he is Aboriginal, but because he had a cracking year. Same as Oliver, Hibberd, Daisy, all had great years for the MFC and prob deserve a spot on the banner.

If you add a player simply due to race then we need a much bigger banner as why have an Aboriginal over some one with Italian background and so on. 

 

I understand and what you are trying to say, but for us as a society to move on we need to see all players (people) as equal. 

If Jetta, Garlett and JKH have great seasons next year then all 3 would deserve a spot. I’m against tokenism.

Different reason, but weren't Wagner and Hunt originally put on the banner not because of merit? Could also be argued the Watts didn't deserve a spot. Or that Daisy isn't as good a player in her own right as the others. I don't think Nev should get on only because he's Aboriginal, I believe he should be there on playing merit (tick) and for his support of players coming from indigenous backgrounds (tick).

If it's only on merit over the previous season I'd argue about 5 currently on the banner should be removed. Surely there is room for more than playing merit as selection criteria.

I've said this before but I created this site and in turn the banner as a fan. Who am I to be the arbiter of who "deserves" a spot? I'm simply a fan who puts on players I like or are popular at the time. I may choose them because I think they had a good year or because I sponsor them or because I've got a good photo of them facing the right way in the right pose. I know there will be criticism no matter who I ultimately choose and I do take all suggestions into consideration. Understand that sometimes players are left out because of the silliest of reasons and is not necessarily because of form, being deserving and certainly not to fill quotas of gender or ethnicity. The last would be insulting to the players especially if they were included for those reasons.

Well said Daisy got my vote not because of gender but because ee are a club AFL, AFLA & VFL. Daisy is a great representative on field and off. Jetta is in the same boat and he is an absolute champion of the club

Make 4 or 5 banners, capturing all players (I’ll admit to having no idea how difficult this is) and cycle them over the year rather than having a single dedicated banner.

If not, I vote for Pedersen to be given a guernsey.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
