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.

Missing friends in Melbourne. Freo have said he is able to be in Melbourne midweek on compassionate grounds. Had a coffee & a dart with Goodwin, discussed coming home to Melbourne if a deal could be worked out

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?

    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.
