I reckon we have too many players getting spots on the 'Demonland' masthead on false pretense, and not Via delivering real Footy to the Demons cause.

I'd like to suggest that we select the captains firstly, and then fill the other spots with the top vote getters in our recent 'Bluey Truscott Medal'...

 

So by my reckoning... we have 3 captains in the club. Jones, Viney and Daisy.

Currently there are 10 faces on our Masthead. 

So if 3 faces are our captains, we might have 7 top vote getters of the 'Bluey', to add to the masthead ???

 

Any thoughts from the faithful ?

No, we have two captains  - Viney and Jones.

Last time I checked, no woman has been drafted into the AFL.

Your post has nothing to do with my thread. Drafting women is not mentioned.

But I take it we recognise Daisy as a club captain, because she IS, currently on our Demonland masthead.

I would assume that means Demonland respects her position at the club, as captain of our women's team. And as such has her up on our masthead already.

Yep, your right MrQueen.

It's taken me a while to come to this view but I reckon we should just let Andy do whatever he likes with the banner. He maintains the site for us and as such I think he should be given carte blanch to do whatever he wants with the banner. It's not like he's going to do something stupid and inconsistent with a Demons supporter site.

Go on Andy, do your best.

 

PS: Obviously he doesn't need our permission to do it. I just want the rest of us to respect his efforts and leave him alone to do what he wishes.

Yeah, Macca, things are getting a little bit too speculative, too insignificant. Just want a fill of training and remediation updates, progress reports and 'deeper' prognostications for the coming season. Form guides are more important than mastheads ...

I'd love to see the top 10 of the previous season's 'Bluey' Truscott Trophy... up on our masthead.    "not in it, not on it, basis."

That sorts it out fairly... and would have seen 'Nev' on it sooner.   Sooner than Hunt's inclusion, for example. Maybe ahead of watts.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
