The Trading and Drafting Board ... has begun


Demonland

Recommended Posts

The name proposed by Deanox - “The Draft, Trade and Cheese Board” seems to have struck a Red and Blue Vein of support that’s all too rare among Demonlanders.

I therefore declare that it’s a feta accompli and without further ado, let’s kick off with the new board.

And just to help newer posters, here’s an example of how to initiate a new thread and, in doing so you might just 
Krakouer Barrel of laughs:-

The Matthew Limburger Thread

A caller just rang SEN to report that Bomber ruckman Matthew Limburger is a bit cheesed off at having to play second fiddle to Tom “Taco” Bellchambers in the ruck and is thinking of taking a dip at the trade market. 

The caller described the 202cm ruckman, who has only just turned 30, as the cream of the available big man crop and if he’s looking at topping off his great career, there would be no better place for him to do it than at Melbourne.

”He’s the Big Cheese””, the caller said.

Hearing the news made me grin because I think the story is nothing more than waffle.

A frustrated Limburger is pictured below sitting out a recent game at the MCG.

Told my partner about this great honor you have bestowed upon me.

I didn't get the response I was expecting, but it was probably the one I deserved!

 

A well deserved recognition for your efforts...

I'm sure some of the players will also honor you by going to Philadelphia for EOS trip although I'm hearing a few may choose to stay on the Mainland ?

Great name - hopefully we can bring in some quality, particularly someone with a Cracker Barrel, or become a Roquefort in defence, whilst allowing Hibberd and Lever a Brie(z) to sweep up the ground balls. I Camembert to wait til trade week.

    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.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm
