Close thread. 

Best not to encourage rumour without any basis whatsoever

People have been asking that the thread be closed from as far back as page 2.

Probably a good thing the mods didn’t listen back then.

Wow, a hindsight hero. 

I didn’t know that Hogan wanted to leave at the time hence the post.

For the next couple of years it is inevitable that here will be a Hogan thread either here or on the main board (which is where it will pop up as the season gets underway).    No point in closing this till then.

I agree sue, keeps my mind away from TWSNBN....

[censored], how is this thread still going. Time to move on people.

Welcome, FD, to ManDee's 'Killjoy Club', and I quote:

' I would like to suggest that those asking for a thread to be closed be banned for 1 month. If the thread is going after the month ban them for life. 

There are too many killjoys in life, don't come here if you don't like it. It is not compulsory.'

Horse floggers, uplift your sources of glee for the sake of the civilised, joyful status quo.

Our position is we don’t close threads just because someone thinks we’ve finished talking about a topic. Closure is only for if the thread needs to be shut down in order to maintain the code of conduct or protect the site.

I’m well aware of the site’s policies Mr. Redleg. It’s why we heavily scrutinize that Tom Scully thread you started a while ago where about 2 pages of content have had to be deleted due to unacceptable posting.

Its so simple, if you don't like a thread don't go there.

If you don't like music or a tv program, don't tune in or turn it off. 

True. But I don't think it is unreasonable for those who think a thread should be closed to say so.  As long as they don't keep coming back and saying it.

I'm not allowed to put anything on that has noise attached to it, except the toilet and the kettle.......

But care a thought for the administrators. 50 per cent want it closed down 50 per cent don’t.  The administrators close the thread and then get criticised by the other half. I think their position is completely understandable.

That is about .02% of the thread that was unacceptable. That would make it the most acceptable thread on DL.

Wow it has disintegrated into a discussion about how and when a thread should be closed

can we add that to the reasons a thread should be closed?

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
